JDM has been synonymous with clean or a certain look. Bronze wheels (Volks not Rota's), carbon fiber, Titainium everywhere you can, subtle (or not if you go full voltex). Its a combination of the above and hard to find JDM parts (which equals DUCATS spent).

I was into Honda's (Still am) and basically you tried to get the most OEM JDM parts you could and aftermarket parts from companies that aren't as well known here.

Its a sickness I'm still affiliated with but I'm slowly weaning myself off. I still like subtle/understated but I also realize there are more then enough US companies with proven parts that are affordable and great quality (CBRD/Buschur/Forced Performance, etc).

Going JDM is cool but for me being a family person going faster and looking good is worth more to me.

With all that said I still have Rota's for my EVO but I still plan on buying some Volks (I still haven't completely gotten over my sickness).
