Thanks, man...I still do enjoy looking at older pictures. Sometimes I miss the look of the 19's...but not really. I love the Advan very much.

LOL...thanks for the suggestion. But I had that look many moons ago and ended up getting bored of it. 
Plus, it's very hard to match all 4 bulbs (looks like you're missing the oem fog bulb) and eventually I was a lot happier going back to amber with the high quality color of the CBI white bulb.
Lookin good though, man...keep it up!

The thing I like about the leds fogs they match with my headlights..I was thinking about switching my sides back to amber tho

Yeah...inspire fogs definitely look good matching...we'll see, maybe I'll give them a shot if I get bored of the amber. What low beam do you have?

Go with the Inspires....they look so good.

That's not what he's debating!

Oh...yeah, no those fogs definitely wouldn't match the CBI then. The mori's are pretty blue IIRC.

my first chop! Thanks, Thanh...your tutorial gave me the motivation I needed to mess with it...unfortunately, I have CS5 which was different than yours, but I did check out youtube and was able to get ONE thing I wanted to learn, which was chopping a picture onto something else. I'll learn more from there...

ater_unum brought her S2000 over last night. She gave my wife a ride-now my wife wants one too.

Who is that?
That's awesome...so is that gonna happen? I imagine that you getting an expensive toy means that she gets a not so expensive toy.
Can't effin wait...!

ater_unum is a Kansas City girl. She used to own a Type S.
Rhonda also likes Mini Coopers too. She'll never get one.....she just talks about it. Rhonda is a Registered Nurse. She is actually working now on finishing her Bachelors Degree in Nursing (BSN). She's been in management and also on the Heart Team in the Operating Room throughout her 18 year career.
So maybe after she graduates, she'll get a toy.

Sometimes you just have to let them go to the end of their leash and bark..........
The key is not to react to the barking because a lot of the time, it's just barking. They WANT us to react. I won't give her the satisfaction.

Well...if WE react, that becomes the focus rather than the cause of it.
I do pee on her when she sleeps though. To mark territory and such.

New HIC spoiler on...love it. Thanks John Linn...awesome awesome product. I should have stuck the center first, then the sides...plus, it didn't cure before it rained so it's not totally stuck perfectly. 
I'll have to reinstall it at some point.

I love these roof visors, the only thing that bugs me about them is that they don't go all the way to the ends.

The window gets wider as you go down. Once mounted, the edges match the edges of the glass PERFECTLY, which is awesome. I should have taped the center first...because I did sides, the top is kinda pushing up trying to lift. Didn't help that I washed the car 2 hours after install AND it rained yesterday so the water probably didn't help with adhering. I'll reinstall with a little RTV once I have some time.

Hello Sir, would you mind sharing which turn signal bulbs + fog LED's you went with? I currently have amber DRL and have been searching for a matching combo. You would be a life saver!
Car looks awesome with the new spoilers! Wish CSL made one for the 2G TSX

Thanks!
Roof visor is off the car. Apparently I should have followed directions and put the tape down from center out, not sides...although hard to know where is perfectly centered...and also not to wash the car 2 hours after applying. Oh well.

LOL...in a way, I do dig the no spoiler look, kinda makes me want to drop the csl too...do a trunk swap with someone.
But I know I'd regret it!
