Haven't posted in awhile and just like to share some updated pics of the TL aka Inspire.

For shits and giggles, I spray painted the oem rims gunmetal to see what it'll look like

I would also like to welcome the new people... there soo many unfamiliar screen names. Welcome to the board!

 

god dam long time no see, that car is stilll damm clean!!! and jdm all over

 

Beautiful car man, very clean & JDM "Inspired"

Not sure how I feel about the rims in gunmetal though and IMO you should put amber bulbs in the clear bumper lenses. Clear bumper lenses have always screamed ricer to me.

Overall I give it a 8.5/10 lol.

 

beautiful and clean
paint shinin
very nice

 

Clean

 

I haven't seen this car in a long time, and it still looks clean. I still like that inspired rear plate garnish because it is a very subtle, but clean difference.

 

Your car looks bad ass, but I don't like the rims though.

And also, how come your inspires don't have that slight hint of orange/amber in the reverse/signal part of the light?
Here's what I mean, the 1st pic is yours and the second is the one with a hint of amber(pic stolen from Big Balla - hope you don't mind)

 

The OEM Inspires are clear with an amber cap inside, just like the tails, it looks to be the T10 in the lower position lamp IS amber, and the bulbs inside the turn signal housing are the type that are silvery when off, amber when on.

Welcome back, Acurasnake. It's been awhile since I've read your posts! Your car is as beautiful as ever, .

~Cheers~

 

The same idea design is up front. You can remove the amber cap from behind by Dremeling it out, or heating the tail lights and opening the front cover to unclip the amber cap.

~Cheers~

 

I have never seen your car before but it is clean as hell!! I love the lip it really sets the car off!

 

damn where can i get that lip? does that come stock on jdm inspire?

 

^ On the Inspire 25S it does, .

~Cheers~

 

i am guessing is super hard to get my hands on that lip than?? i been searching ebay, online, etc... and cant find shit! maybe i am searching for the wrong wordings?

 

search "inspire tl" there all shipped from japan

 

I didn't like the amber cap so I dremeled it out... a pain in the ass!!!

EBAY!! ...look for sellers that sell jdm parts...email them and ask if they can get their hands on a 95-98 honda inspire front lip... oh and also ask for the brackets that come with it!!

Thanks for the compliments guys! ...nice to see familiar faces

 

really INSPIRED now hehe....love ur ride..keep it up and thanks for the welcoming to the boards

 

hey man wow..! Thats dam clean asss hell... lol were u get that wing from....? ive bin looking for one of thoes for a long asss time man.. lol...

 

clean ride bro.

 

<---- Pinoy here... lol they're a few filipino 1st gen owners here. you probably met them already!

 

THANKS!

I got the wing from a website a couple years back ...01' or 02' the website is no longer available... the company is value sports... there's a member here who bought the value sports kit... you might wanna email him and you can purchase the value sports wing from the same place he got his kit.

 

thanx man.. lol... how much was it....? cuz i found a JDM one for 300 and 75 shipping...

 

^ there not cheap.

 

oooooo yeah i know there not cheap.. lol..... but i still want one.. beacuse i think tha TL looks naked with out one... well thats what i think...

 

Haha, I don't mind not having a wing, because the truck has a slight lip to it already. It's be nice to have one, but it's not really necessary.

What I do think, though, is that 2.5ers should all be hunting for either lips or 3.2 bumpers (if their cars are still stock height) because the 2.5 bumper looks like it doesn't have a jaw. If you've ever seen a person who has dipped (smokeless tobacco) for many years, you'll see where I'm coming from, unless they've already made holes in their faces.

~Cheers~

 

yeah i know what u mean. i had that idea in mind.. get a lip for my bumper..? or get the bumber of a 3.2.. and from the looks of it the bumber of the 3.2 should go on with no problem on the 2.5... like i dont know what should i do to the back..? get a wind..? or get a lip for the rear bumber..?

 

CLEAN CAR! i like i got the same one with minor differences.. good work

 

If you get a properly designed wing, it'll actually help keep the rear of the car cleaner. I once washed and waxed, then drove about 2-3 minutes to the gas station to get gas. As I was pumping, I noticed the plate area and the top of the rear bumper had a fine layer of black soot already. A wing would help keep the air straighter and not go in a circle, pulling dust from underneath the car onto the top of the bumper.

~Cheers~

 

i like it, the spoiler is my favorite part on that car.

 

sell me your B+G coiloversssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

 

^ i thought ur done hookin up your car

 

Wow, very nice looking car, my man! I'm jealous!
