nice man I love those switchbacks and yea yesterday the weather was amazing to bad I was working and didnt have time to do some mods but do you know if your ebay sell has v2 lol I haven't had a chance to check yet

ebelp

Thanks!

I just did a quick search on ebay and the seller I got mine from (wx_led) only has the 7443 switchbacks in the type 1 style. He only has the 1157 bulbs in type 2. So maybe the 7443 type 2 120-LED switchbacks don't exist..?

they do but vleds is the only one that has em and they're 48 smd

type I is fine, especially for the price!

Gotcha...yeah, contemplated going back to the type s rear sidemarkers to keep em the same. I kinda like the all white sides of the car though.

Moar pics:

Preface...I didn't notice until just now, but my camera made the switchbacks and USR sides look slightly bluer than reality. They actually appear to match quite well in these pics, so I chose not to edit the overall color balance in PS hehe. For a better idea of the actual color of each, watch the video below.

This is why I love my D90. Most of these pics were shot at ISO 1000 and even after sharpening them a bit in PS, the image noise is almost non-existant. w00t.











Neat shot of my new LED reverse bulbs in action:


...and in case anyone missed the vid from the previous page (watch in HD):

thanks for looking ...man those looks nice and rockstar does have a pt v1 are just fine lol I bought one switchback thinking it was one pair from autolumination I think it was a 30 smd, I am going to go with this route just b/c they seem they will match my haols better
Also although it is somthing simple have you bought that "ACURA" decal that goes on the front bumper

ebelp

Sounds good...I'm very satisfied with these 120 LED bulbs. Plenty bright.

I'm not really into the "ACURA" front bumper inserts, but who knows...I change my mind a lot hehe...

I are LEGEND

You really are living the life huh... Baller car, baller camera hope the house and the honey are on point too

ebelp

^haha thanks...I like where I'm at now. We're actually waiting to close with the bank to add an addition on our house. Need more space with 3 kids and a dog. :o

Nice shots Ebelp. I've updated the date in your title for you

ebelp

Sounds good...give me a shout when you're ready.

Thank you sir...oh, and call me John.

lokijibber

Dude, AWESOME shots! I love your car, and am going after a very similar external lighting setup... hope that's not too much thievery!!!

Also, sorry for gunking up your thread with some of my earlier questions. Like I just said, I'm using it for inspiration since it's the same car as mine (at least it left the factory that way!)

John Ebelp.

ebelp

Thanks man, no problem. Ask as many questions as you want...I still consider myself a n00b, "thieving" off other people's setups on AZ. I wouldn't have bought my car if it wasn't for AZ.

Success! After two failed attempts at getting my car on an alignment rack, found a 3rd shop that got it up on there and got it done. Check out how horribly out of whack my rear toe and camber was before the alignment:



LMAO.

What are you droppin on? And do you drive with the drop in the snow too?

ebelp

Thanks! I like my summer wheels much better though hehe

XLR8/ISC N1 coilovers. Yes, I've kept it at that ride height all winter. Haven't had any real snow storms yet, so it hasn't been an issue.

Car looks great man.

John-How's the ride quality with the sport/street ISC N1's? I still can't decide between the street comfort or street/sport lol.

ebelp

^ Rides great. Just depends on what you want....if you want a nice firm right that isn't too stiff, street sport should be fine.
