That's absolutely gorgeous - I would like a Zeus blue one day :P

It's looks like its missing the rear reflector ? And I can't tell but im pretty sure the JDM Zeus had the smaller front indicators as standard (like on my R) - has yours got the larger ones like those in the UK?

Of course all the above could just be for your own market, was it an official import?

And really who cares......because oh yesindeedie - I would love that in my man shed... Brilliant find. Well done fella :-)
