So I've also bought a Cappuccino, after my mate did (His name is Ezra, he's also on this forum). I really liked the car and wanted a cap too!
It's a '92 champaign JDM version.
The seller told me this was the only champaign colored cap in the Netherlands,
but is this car really as rare (like the green one) as he told me ?
The rims aren't the original ones, but I really like them.

What a cracking pair 
It could well be the only one but it's impossible to be 100% sure. A lot of the cars in the Netherlands have probably come from the UK so will be either red or mercury silver. Satellite silver like yours isn't a rare colour in Japan but is rarer outside of the Japanese market. |

Okay, I saw them too on a Japanese market site, you'll probably be right about that!
So the official name of the color is "Satellite silver" ?

The colour looks great indeed. Probably easier to maintain than red.

Yes, they're the same!
But those rims still need a paint job, but I'm still not convinced which color I have to choose.
I'm thinking of something like the same color as the car. Not too silver, not too white, but also not too creamy. |

They are geniune Watanabes you can see the symbol stamped on the wheels. They do look very similar to super lites though

My photoshop skills are very bad. I really want to know if a mettallic paint job on my rims would be nice on my cap.
or should I just keep it plain white and repaint them in the same color..
what are your thoughts ? |

Fixed remote central locking,
there wasn't much room for placing the actuators, so had to remove a part which held the window in place when the window was all the way up (some white plastic holder thing). Since the window carries two plastic holders to keep the window for not being pulled out, I could remove one.

This is how others have mounted theirs.
I really should get round to fitting mine! |

| I couldn't fit mine right there. Wasn't enough space between the door and the material inside the door. |
