I do too!
I'm not putting the lugs on during the winter, I want to preserve the finish on them
Thanks Jeremy!
I leave them on permanently, but I replaced the spacer nuts with better ones.
Most of them became rounded, but I had trouble removing one of them. I had to jam a smaller size socket to remove it. These "Ichiba" nuts were toast. Still usable, but I know for sure next time I'll have a hell of a time removing them.
That was when I decided to find better ones.
Ones that fit perfect, and still small.
Now I'm not worried about them anymore

No kidding! Yeah, I've had the same problems after someone used a gun on mine. Now, I only torque down to 80 ft/lb...and make sure it's a 6 sided socket and use a long breaker bar and one swift jerk to loosen...if you put the pressure slowly, you're more likely to start rounding.
Actually, in truth, I pretty much only use V1 spacers now since I have extended lugs all around.
Good man, yeah...Solid fkng steel ones are where it's at. I think the reason they do the soft metal is so it kinda takes the shape of the spacer and is less likely to budge. Or to sell replacement ones...

Yeah, this will be the first winter for me running spacers and I was contemplating taking them off - but then I just got lazy and said the hell with it. Hopefully they'll make it through just fine.

I go back and forth on the visors all the time - some days I like the look of them, other days I'm not as certain.

Confusing Name Guy
I see why you were saying you like the stock tips extended with the A-Spec lip!
Now I know what mine should look like in a month or two with the stock 5 spokes

Also fixed my memory seat problem.
It would remember the position for like a week, and then forget it.
It didn't bother me much because before someone else drives like a mechanic, I set my position so it remembers it temporarily.
The fix was to replace the Memory seat module, under the driver seat.
The module costs around $170 new, which isn't worth it.
My friend just totaled his 05 TL, so I was able to take it his module off him =)
Only early 04 models were affected, and I guess the previous owner(s) never bothered to get it fixed through warranty with Acura.
People who have working memory seats with an 04 probably had their module replaced already before their ownership, that's why this problem doesn't pop up often in threads. I just don't know why my previous owner(s) didn't get it done.

Every so often my 'memory seats' forgets too... I never move my seats so I'm fine with that. The mirrors, however, they always reset themselves to a new position when the memory seat is lost/forgotten. Very annoying.
I wonder if this is the causing my car to throw that one particular BCM code.
