Ok...
Looking good! I was gonna say lower the car but then I remembered you said UK NSX. I've got a lot of family out in the UK (London, Manchester, Leeds) and I'm out there a lot. Real difficult with UK roads to lower the NSX any more than stock...maybe like an inch if you're a wary driver.
holy led batman!
Looks good! Lowering slightly will make it look even more better

+1, you're totally right
Looking good! What kind of front lip is that?

You are all correct, i would love to lower my car however....
Have you ever driven in the UK? Speed bumps in most villages, allot of small back roads. And... My Drive... It slopes up from the road rather steeply, i spent few days couple years back digging it out just so i could get the car in the drive and it only just goes up without catching.
Ideal world i would get some lift suspension but by the time i bought that kit, then the actual coil overs and then wheels and tyres well i could go turbo. Priorities

It is the Shine front lip. Sos list the same lip for the NA2 this is the NA1 version which i bought direct from shine but SOS can most probably get it or i think Source1 might even do it.

Which ones?
the front or rear?
you can buy the fronts.
Think it was Mugen kid on Prime who offers the conversion, they are totally bad ass. They look very professional and factory fit in person, customer service is also very good, they actually went wrong which does and can happen and he said to send them back which i did and got them repaired and sent back out to me. you can't fault that, Brilliant service.
I will see if i can find a pic with the turn signal lit for you.

Car looks great and lowering it will take it to the next level.
I live in the bum **** middle of nowhere and have about two inches of clearance in the front. My front lip kisses road kill and potholes every day. Lower the car, buy 5 front lips, replace every month as needed. Totally worth it.

You are all right, it does need to be lowered.
I need wheels more urgently, perhaps wheels and coil overs will be my next big mod.
What's wrong with the wheels you got on? Suspension first if you're thinking about it friend. Bigger wheels = downgrade in our cars cause they often add weight. Unless you get top quality ones like BBS LM/ Advan RS that are forged and light weight. Stick to 17 in the front and 18 rear. Most chance of keeping the weight to power ratio (if you've FI'd the car or other mods to get her pulling better than stock then I guess it doesn't really matter

when i do wheel i will be going lighter. I realise that bigger means less acceleration but there has to be a compromise some where.
I really like the Advan RZ-DF and the cars i have seen them on look awesome!! They are 18 - 19 but are lighter than the factory 16 -17 however that being said does not take into consideration the weight of the tyres.
Another option would be TE37 SL 17 - 18 not much weight difference between the Advans. Perhaps a better size but those Advans are just Wow!!!!!
.I think WedSport make some nice wheels which are lighter than factory but after going into a local shop and seeing Kei racing have copied them i was kinda a lil disappointed.
Definitely needs some stance, IMO, even if you fit some spacers and springs to start.
Not sure on LEDs. In the second photo you posted it looked cool, but not sure if a clearly old car works with a bang up-to-date look with LEDs. They sort of clash for me...
Anyway, nice to see something other than a completely stock UK car.
