yea the car has had a few things done to it, not too much thankfully. Just an aftermarket intake n exhaust. I'm going to meet the lady tonight n pay for it so I'll take a look at what kind they are then. as far as the rims....i don't really care what brand as long as they're not low quality. I just was some black, 5 spoke rims with a pink lip

well the belts not the large price. what costs most is if you pay for a shop to do the labor.

all oem stuff... buy from this guy on ebay. OEM honda stuff... just ask him for the oil seals if you want to go the extra step, and the tensioner as well

send him a email thru ASK QUESTION... just be sure what motor is in the car before ordering! the motor code is stamped on the front of the block...

if you email him he will help ya out im sure. its OEM stuff that beats the OEM dealership price. ive ordered thru them several times! saved about 100bucks off just going to your local dealership.
