As I said I am not finished yet , calipers need painting and different evo wheels going on car .

Im wondering would there be much of an interest in these modifications . Pritty much BOLT ON with spacer and caliper bracket . no welding or mods to carrier etc needed .

I am nearly finished my car and everything has been fitted .
The spacers require wheel studs and bolt directly to the standard hub .
studs wont be supplied with spacers and can be got from honda or extended ones from tegiwa . Then nuts to bolt spacer to your hub as seen in photos .
The spacers sit behind the disc and to use evo brakes you will require aftermarket wheels . Recommend evo 5 as seen in photo
Id say €400

Be good if you supplied everything ready to bolt on without sourcing bits from elsewhere.

Brackets and spacers work out €400 euro . Im in ireland .
If I was to supply with studs in spacers average price for 10 studs is about 60 euro or more from honda .
then require hub centric wheel nuts to hold spacer on (or what I did was thread locked and put wheel nuts on . Then angle grind off top flush so disc can sit on )nuts where €35 . I think hub centric are more expensive but dont require cutting .
