Yo...I saw that pic of your breather. I've always wondered. What do those do, where do you put them, etc? In essence, what are they?

well as my understanding... breather goes on your crankcase..

i should of had another hole on my filter piping... but its off of accord and didnt have one

so i got a breather.. and its basically for look...

and makes a cool wishiping sound like a turbo hehee

what breather s are for

breather s filter the air into your crankcase oem places them in you air inlet tube which is filtered air but the the air pull from your crank case also pulls from your intake this way so i could being stock limited some air and cause performance loss shich i doubt to small to make a difference but something to think aboout
so having no hole in inlet tube and a breather may provide engine with a butt hair more air

nice nice...
so u r getting clear corners ehh... u know... for the 1st time i actually think the amber bumper lights look good on a CL... white and amber.. not bad at all... clear bumper lights still work better for other body colors... but if i had a white CL.. i'll keep those ambers... ^^

Great lights. Love those brows. i was thinking about doing that for the longest ever since civics have them but i cant find a pair of healights to do that on. I dont wanna mess up my own lights and want to be able to switch them if i wanted. Looks great man. If i can find some lighst for cheap i would do it

Clears look great on white too. I think they make the front end look a lot better. The clear matches the white car perfectly. I hated those big slabs of amber.

I can't agree more. I think white on white a great and comes second only to a red CL with clears.
