wow! first off, you certainly take a lot of pride in your cars. second, your car looks great! i love the wheels (although i would have gone with silver or gunmetal), but the style fits the car perfectly. and the stance is perfect. i apreciate the wing, but i think it takes away from the natural lines of the car. i personally would have chosen a lip spoiler for the rear. the front lip looks great and really completes the front. and the hood looks good too! it'll look even better painted, but that's my opinion.
i have to say that the RSX, to me, is a very hard car to make unique and classy. it's too stout and short from the factory, but i have seen lowered ones that just look awkward. but yours is solid. i really think it's the stance.
oh well, my 2 cents.

Exhaust tip and wing lead to my totally uncalled for comment. I love the color and the wheels. The hood I could take or leave.

Looks real nice. Although I must make one comment.
White wheels, bless you my son.
I hear white wheels are difficult to keep clean.

so far the dirt/brake dust is just wiping off without water.. so if i keep on them i should be set..

just be careful. the break dust is abresive. if you wipe it down without water, you could create hairline scratches in the wheel finish, making it harder and harder to clean over time. i always use something damp, to pick up the dust, not just wipe it around. detailing spray works the best if you're not going to wash the whole car, but just clean up the wheels.

i agree.
mark, go spend 80 cents on a spray bottle at home depot (best bottles i've tinkered with) put hot water and some car wash soap and shake. the water doesn't have to be hot when using, just when mixing. and wax your wheels every once in a while.....or use a NON-ABRASIVE polish.
I'll give you more tips later....just no dry wiping.....
