Cheers for the comments. 
Yeah I keep meaning to get round to getting the scoop removed (previous Jap owner put it on not me), but it aint that simple. Its bolted into the roof, so its a headlining out job, then weld the holes up, and respray the whole roof. Oh and the cage will need to be taken out to get the headlining out
In all honesty, I was supposed to be getting it done at the beginning of July along with a full front end respray, removal of the wind deflecters and sorting out of all dings/scratches and marks. However, I ended up having to get the bottom end rebuilt
Anyway, The wheels are Kei Ultralites. In Hyperblack (I think?).

Righty, I'll see if I can un squash the first and last pics
As for the scoop, its an odd one, some people love it, some hate it but I'll say this, it certainly makes the car that bit more individual and...
A) It will be removed, but I have quite an extensive shopping list that needs finishing before next years SSO, that Im currently halfway through.
B) There is already a safari vent underneath it as its a Type R Ltd, so the only other option is sunroof, and thats a MASSIVE no no
Just to give you an idea of what the car looked like when it came over from Japan....
...its my understanding that it was used in Gymkhana events in Japan before I got my grubby little hands on it
Once again, thanks for all the top comments and ideas, feel free to keep them coming
