OMG, someone from the Philippines dropped a BOMB!!! Congratulations on an outstanding job, well done

Tilt: Thanks! That means a lot coming from the guy with the best fitted 8. lol

Grace: I didn't drill the bumper. It came with holes hidden inside the front opening and L brackets. So whenever there's a photoshoot, i just take off the brackets holding the plate, to give it a cleaner look. Thanks, man! put a lot of work into this

Converted, the Rotas are around 1000 USD to 1200 USD. Linea Corse is a little more expensive from 1200 to 1300 USD.

Yeah, I've heard about those, but they're not too big here in the Philippines. I think they're manufactured elsewhere like Taiwan or something.

Mike, they are what you think they are, but I definitely did not pay the price publicly posted

Still in the process of determining specs but I think I have it down

Now to wait :[

Center cap gives it a clean look. Without it, it looks like something is missing.

Most single piece wheels do not include centercaps so within the JDM community, not running caps is pretty commonplace. Euro crowd differs in this respect, but I think caps & no caps can both look good. It's not about hating caps, it's just what one is used to seeing.
