i'd like to see a TW do a shoot with a snowy background.

Lord Helmet

Maybe we can get Night Rider to do one out here while theres still snow all over the place. I don't think he's dropped though. I know he has really dark tint and a grille but I think thats it. Still would be a cool shoot though with the right back drop.

RYANGP

That would definitely be cool to try. My car looks stock besides an M5 lip and pinstripes but maybe i'll give it a shot when i go snowboarding this winter

All Mine

Trying to revive your thread, Louis? Great pictures though. Yours is starting to look really good.

Sun Diego CL-S

the thread has obviously slowed down as far as posts/pics being added. it looks like it still gets alot of hits. but, it's an old thread.

cyfair68

where did you get your head lights from

All Mine

What kinda wheels does CircleSquare have? They look nice when you can see them (another reason I hate black wheels)

Sun Diego CL-S

he has some Wedsport wheels. they are 18x8 i think. this is the same model i believe.

All Mine

I <3 X's

ccannizz11

Are those 03 side mirrors on an 01? She-L-S, did you do that? or were they there when you bought the car?

Sun Diego CL-S

it still shows on my browser.

fine, i saved it. here goes.

Lord Helmet

She-L-S

Nope, and nope. The car's an '02 and everything (so far) is stock.

Stealth CL

thats the first OPG type-S i think ive ever seen....cool
and yet rare

She-L-S

So I've heard I believe the color is Naples Gold Metallic...and it was brought down from Canada. I think there's one other person on the board with one and he's Canadian The only bad thing about having a Canadian car is that the climate control is in Celsius!! I do get daytime running lights though

GreenMonster

Dude, she probably doesn't know what OPG stands for

She-L-S

So fill me in!

Stealth CL

Old Persons Gold

but your's is a Type-S. so its okay

She-L-S

Oh sad I've never been a big fan of gold either...but I look hot in this car. Promise

RYANGP

lol i believe it

Stealth CL

well in that case.....pics or


those are the

You'd be even less of a fan of NGM's ugly cousin, PDG.

Did you find that CDN customs decal on the door jam? I'm still scratching my head over how your climate control is in Celsius yet the speedo's in MPH.

She-L-S

Didn't know I was supposed to be looking for one...I'll go do it real quick and get back to you. As far as the pics....that'll have to wait because I'm sick this week What does the decal look like?

She-L-S

Here's the speedo:


And the climate control:


Is this the sticker you're looking for?


Proof of paint color:


My guess is that the people who brought it over wanted a reg. speedo, but didn't want to cough up the money for a Farenheit climate control

YVRCLR

Yeah, that's it.

Back in the "Got Naples Gold Metallic" post, where you first put up your pics, on post #38 I asked about that import decal. I'm no expert but figuring your car and mine came off the assembly line together (mine's #122) they both must have been originally destined for Canada. The mystery, to me anyway, still is...what's the actual milage on your car if the speedo was swapped ? Don't get me wrong, I'm not hinting it's a high-miler. You said earlier you researched it well and were confident of it's history. What you do have is a pretty unique car with a Canadian coming back into the U.S.

When I first started looking into buying a CL-S, my first choice was looking down south for an '03 6-speed as only 50 or so made it to Canada but ended up finding my '02 right here in the neighbourhood.

She-L-S

I'm pretty confident in the mileage because I have the carfax and service records for the life of the car. Also, the mileage is not recorded ONLY on the odometer, so if the mileage had been changed, I could find out.

foreveraflboy

I'm not so sure about "mileage is not recorded ONLY on the odometer". I may be wrong but shy of dealer records I do believe that it is only recorded in the odometer and not the ECU like many other cars.

She-L-S

Hmm...well, that's kind of disappointing...but I'm not too worried. Judging from the carfax, condition of the car, all of its parts, and the fact that I have all service records....I'd be shocked if it had been turned back. In fact, it's only had 2 previous owners and I found out who both of them were. It was used as a local government car in Lewiston, ID (SMALL town, thus the low miles) and was bought by a Lewiston doctor at 6,000 miles. The mechanic knew her and said she "never drove it like it should be driven--FAST" Good news for me!

Lord Helmet

Fixed.


SD, your CL is looking mighty tasty in this pic man.





Makes me really miss mine.

All Mine

Looks so good right there.

All Mine

Nice, very noice. Is it just me, or is the engine mounted backwards?

Stealth CL

its a K20

easymoney

I really don't know what it is besides a civic but it is not done like any other that I have seen

All Mine

I know it's a KDubA2.. But it still looks like the motor is mounted backwards. The intake manifold is up by the radiator support.
