if i had a black cl. i would have def. murdered that bitch. go for it dude. those headlights are a good alternative to opening up your own. after looking at that pic a few times, i don't think those stripes are so bad anymore. esp. if your car is black. i never liked how there is still a silver strip on the outer edge of the headlight after you black your own. are there any pics of those headlights on a CL? this is the first time i'm seeing them.

^Yeah, didn't look too bad.

My is that you buy some brand new depo lights off ebay and blackhouse them yourself. That way, you'll get some nice brand new headlights, the fun of doing it yourself, and no stripes.

And you're murdering it in the summer? Hope you don't have leather, cause them bitches get hot.

Well shit, if he was going to buy some new ones and try to open them up anyways, why don't do it the way he wants it?

i'm kinda diggin' em. nice work on the chop. i don't keep bulbs (working ones at least) in my headlight corners. i feel like it clashes too much at night time with my HIDs.

i feel like it looks a shitload nicer at night without either one. i don't use bulbs in my clear corners either.

i'm referring to the wedge (194) bulbs.

i used to have PIAA's. they faded over some time and eventually blew. then i realized it didn't make a difference if i had working bulbs in there or not. it all started out of laziness.

I blacked out my grill today, only to have a few complications:

1) 3/4 of the screws used to remove the grill were broken. That was fun.
2) my A emblem was cracked, i was gentle, but after i painted it and picked it up, snapped in two... So tomorrow i'm off to the junkyard to hit up some good ol CL part shoppin.

I did the entire thing gloss black, and might I add, it looks very nice. I'll try and post a picture tomorrow.

The additional height combined with the unique OBX spiral flow design creates a vortex airflow that greatly increases power output and fuel mileage.
Ever hear of a Turbonator?

They're worth it, they do help with airflow, you're not gonna notice a huge performance increase though, it's more to compliment other intake mods

turbonator is a true waste of money. idk how they could even be allowed to sell those things with no R&D on them.

One of my graduation parties is this coming sunday $$$$

I'm putting on header, high flow cat and custom piping to go with my muffler in the next 2 weeks.
Throttle body after, so on and so forth.

Is cam replacement for the F22 worth it whatsoever, any gains?

I post way too much on this one for random shit, I know. But one more question, this is more of an opinion gathering...

I found some integra fat fives for 200 on craigslist, and i was thinking about gettin em and painting them black as a temporary set up, depending on how good it looks. But the only downide is that they are 15". I mean, my cars going to be lowered soon, so i'm really unsure of what to do.

Please respond ASAP.

A couple guys on here have had 15in type R rims on their cl's. They obviously look small, but not too bad IMO. I don't think the fat 5s would look too bad either.

15's are too small. wait for 16's. i have a set of 15's, 16's and 18's and i only use the 15's for track purposes cuz they look funny.
