sorry, but german cars get it too...
please post pics of "euro" look... euro = deep, extremely deep polished lip rims, most likely a kit... no CF, maybe some, big brake kits, mostly cosmetic mods...
PS: the comment about the hood was a joke, just playing along.

I was always under the impression that jdm referred to the japanese domestic market, or...what the car came with stock in the japanese market. The only two cosmetic differences from our rx8 and the "jdm" rx8 besides right hand drive are the clear corners, and the gas gauge and temperature gauges are reversed on the instrument panel. Other than those two cosmetic differences, our cars are as jdm as you can get. And there tons of rx8's on here with "jdm" clear corners. Im not one of them

er....alot of the cars on here have Volk's, Work's, etc., there aren't that many sporting American Racing anything, I guess you meant that as a general statement but in any case, might should have given it a bit more thought before posting, oh yeah, and there's plenty of pics on here of tricked out 8's, just do a search or dig through some threads and you should be able to find plenty
