One question, where did you get those M3 mirrors in those 3 year old pics? Are they from a 94-97 4 door Accord?

is this the same yellow TL that everyone knows about? if so, i liked it better before. never was a fan of the c/f hood that's a different color from the car. its looks like you got rid of the big-ass wing that you previously had...congrats i liked the previous rims though...

ahhh just the guy ive been trying to get a hold of! yes, this is the infamous yellow TL (not the one here in houston..thats another guy) anywho, i have the same question as 96tl, where did you get your M3 mirrors from? i like your m3 mirrors than the one you have now but its all good. i also believe you have a different yellow paint now?? it looks kind of goldenish yellow. love the custom hood, i read about your post awhile back. i guess you didn't get a buyer yet but im sure somebody on this board with a 3.2 might want it. come hang out with us more often! i know you got crazy a*s stereo upgrades in your ride!

So if its possible for real BMW M3 mirrors to work, then the Accord ones shouldnt be a problem!

very nice... what i love most is the fact that you shaved the door handles and the side moldings... for the moldings im guessing that the body shop welded metal in there ( am i right?? and do you know about how much that would be)
thanx

2.5 or 3.2. Its pretty queer with either. Its a luxury car, not a sports car. Beating on it is just gonna ruin it.

Question QUESTIONS TO ALL STAR TL

Yo, man I have been waiting for months for you to post some threads on your car. You were the inspiration to hook up my car, but I must admit that when I got my door handles shaved off, I didn't know about your car. But let me ask you a few questions:

1. Where did you get your carbon fiber hood? I called Bomex and they said that they don't make it for 3.2's, so I want to know if its custom. If so how much did it cost you, labor and all?

2. Secondly you state that you have a Nitrous Kit, do u use a dry system or a wet one? Can you explain a bit how it works and how many shots you currently have in it?

All the info you can give us, is worth it bro! Also if you give me your email, I can send you some pics of my baby~

Arrow Shaved Handles

Yeah that is about right. They are expensive to get done, b/c its not the door poppers or the alarm, its the labor of shaving the door handles and I had my whole reinforced w/steel and welded on, don't let them put fiberglass, b/c anyone can just punch it and break into your car. I got mine done for about $3000 total, which included the door poppers for all 4 doors, the certain alarm I needed to get, also I had a backup opener incase my battery went dead and I needed to get in the car. The door poppers work off the battery. Also I had my whole car repainted, not just the doors and I had everything shaved off, the door moldings, etc....and I had a 3 coats of semi-gloss put on it, so it could look especially shiny. I wish I could post a pic, but I don't know how to. I can send you an email, if you give me your address.
