    Not sure why anyone would be suprised by this. There are teenage ricers with terrible taste no matter what nationality or country.

    what they fail to understand is the culture here in the usa. Its not surprising that we want their stuff and they want ours.

    Un-painted bumpers-they fail to understand that it cost lots of dough to paint the bumper. Also, some unpainted bumpers were results from accidents and needed a quick fix.

    Smoke tinted lights-this is true. I'm not a fan though.
    Sticker bombing-came from fast and furious crap. the america style. and few sponsers.
    Rust-man, how stupid can they be. Nobody wants rust. It's our daily driver. Didn't the rusted hood come from them? And the good looking cars come from the OGs in japan. Guys who already own a beater.
    Roof Racks-i thought this was jdm too, but guess not.

    Painted mirrors? hmmm...man back in the days when i saw my bros old civic w/o painted mirrors and door handle, I was surprised. And the civic without passenger side mirror; what kind of shit is that?

    Anyone spy a red spoke from the rims?

    thats cuz the most common color for type r is white. Just like some of us, we can't get the type r, so we get the white to replicate the type r. That kind of thinking has turned any white japanese car looking jdm. That's the impression for me at least. White ep3, rsx, fd2, ek9, cl7, sti, evo, etc. A nice simple and clean one will make it look jdm and type r even if its a sti. lol

    Actually certain trim civics came without a passenger mirror from the factory.

    The rusted hood thing came from 'rat-rods' and hotrodders back in the day. Roof rack being jdm? Rofl, I guess anyone who ever rides bikes or kayaks and uses a roof rack, is only doing so to be jdm?

    Yeah, at first I didn't know about models, but it was shocking to know that cars came like that. The roof rack thingy though, I know some who actually don't ride bikes or kayak, but just have the roof rack to be jdm. Yes...its a fact. lol. I didn't believe it either.

    As far as I know, the rusted hoods started with the VW crowd imitating the Rat Rod crowd.

    I guess my take is if people like the way their car looks and it makes them happy, then good for them. I'll still have my opinion, laugh every once in a while, and the occasional
