Rep Power: 218 Finally, heres my ride guys!
OK so it isn't really much of anything yet but I like the simple look. have a front and rear lip coming but it is going to suck cause I barely clear my ramps as it is now. So far the only difference will be next week, blackout tails, ion yellow fogs, and MAYBE the front and rear lip. I am debating if I get them worked or not by a shop before I install them. Will decide when I get them and take a close look. Wheels will be coming last. Still havn't really made a decision on them but since I am going for pretty much a blackout it will most likely be black with a polished lip (played out, but I don't care, think its hot). I am still deciding on either 16 or 17's. It is dropped on prokits right now and it is suppossed to be a 1 inch drop but apparently that was enough to cause camber problems about 7 days after the install. I didn't expect that from what is supposed to be a subtle drop. Anyways, sorry for the rambling, heres the pics.
NOTE: Check the autozone license plate frames!!! lol you should have seen how homo the ones from the dealer looked. If anyone knows any good black ones out there let me know.

lol I know...I picked them up when I took delivery in october. The ones from the dealer had strawberries that looked like little pink hearts lol. I also removed the badge they had in the back two days ago. I want a black one though so I have to look around. Don't want to just throw one on there with a company name for some part that I don't even have installed. Moving along now...

ok ok enough about the license plate frame, I noted that in the post! lol. As far as the license plate number...should I cover it when I drive too? cause everyone sees it when they look at the car as well! I'll keep it in mind for the future. Again, moving along, I am thinking about replacing the chrome hood and trunk trim with black. I can't find the rear in black though online.

I have to buy a front and back camber kit, and install it, then take it in for an alignment, the headlamp I got from a ebay vendor. They are plenty bright and I havn't gotten flashed at all yet. Then again I havn't done an HID retro yet either.

thanks bro. It will get better with a little bit of time. Want to get rid of some OEM stuff before I end up with more boxes of crap cluttering up my small apartment. Mostly going for a nice look. Not really sure if I will even mess with the engine. I'll be posting update threads as i progress.

i def agree with ditching the crome... crome on imports ftl you can order the color matched ones through honda there not that expensive.
as far as the oem spoiler. i like the style of them. wi oudl say yes but save yourself some money and get one off ebay!

My turn.
The vent shades =
The RS grill =
A super clean car =
The rear LX badge with the front RS =
The chain plate frames =
You need some fogs and a lip. I also suggest some new shoes.
But I would deff loose the chain plate frames and put the front plate in the window. (Get it off the front of the car)
My opinion on the OEM spoiler = Did your car come with one? NO! So it is not OEM. Why do you want a spoiler on a front wheel drive SEDAN? If it is for cosmetic only and you really want one, then get a small one, how about a trunk lip?

First off, I'm shocked and appalled that Matt had to resort to stealing the donkey picture from my thread. Secondly, I'm glad it's more tasteful than some of his recent pics....
Car is looking good though Ryox. I'd blackout the hood trim and RS emblem as well. Other than that, with what you have planned, it's coming along nicely.

Here are the headlights I am sending you.
Oh yeah and Alpha, I already got two of those things goin, front and rear lip along with fogs are actually shipping now and should be here next week. I think after this crap, besides new shoes, gotta finish the audio. I stopped after I installed the speakers and rammatted the front doors. I still get vibration all over the place and it is really annoying the hell out of me. Especially when I put a bunch of ensolite in the front doors too and it sounds like its still in the front. I also put it on the rear deck and it still rattles as well. I am afraid what will happen if I add a sub lol.

I did not steal the ***, I went through my usual routine to find it. I can change it if you want exclusivity to it. (I am not one for stealing a mans piece of ***)
Also, with regards to the taste of the pics, you are the first to post the adult content you are referring to. I just showed up to join the fun.
