I thought I saw a black TSX westbound this morning, around exit 289, 290. One of us?

Saw a Carbon Grey drive up to the Best Buy parking lot at Southpoint. I was getting into my car, he drove to the other side and tried to duck me lmao.

west of 95 on 40 seems to get the traffic. go east and there is very little unless there is an accident.

My car is all stock, and I'm here.

I know what you mean, though. I see TSXes every other day and the chances of them being a member of this forum are probably not super high.

I think we should all go into personalized licens plates, like AZXXXXX (XXXXX being something standardized among us forum members like numbers or whatnot).

I think it'd be cool, anyway.

If not personalized license plates, maybe Acurazine window stickers and/or license plate frames.

I'm already thinking that way, Thunder04. Unfortunately, in NC (so I'm told) personalized plates are strictly for noob out-of-towners. Locals don't do it.

I was wondering if someone could fabricate either a) nice plate frames like the one I got at Tar-jay (see avatar), or b) a small, chrome "Type-AZ" badge.

A badge would be cool, too.

So our best bets are either license plate frames or badges.

I'd be up for it!

Hmm, we have to play with designing a badge. A family friend of mine is a machinist (runs his own shop)...he could possibly machine 'em.

Hmmm...

This is just something rough I created, but something like this??

(tease) I'm not sure I want a badge that's bigger than the one(s) I took off (I heard hondaAcura83 still chuckling as he passed me going the other way on 40 this morning). I'm favoring a plate frame, and if a badge is small enough, it could go right on my existing one. Only req's I have for a plate frame are that they match the body color or the chrome (the cheap-o is chrome), and covers all screws, and provides bottom screws (I don't like loose bottoms which rattle when the trunk closes). I know, I'm Felix Unger in this.

I was blowing past those SOBs[1], until I got a ticket for trying to overtake a semi leaving a cyclone of dirt on I-64W near Rocky Mount.

Learned my lesson. Just slow down and let some other hot-footed yuppie get in front of me and block the schmutz. (NOT meaning you.)

[1]Raleigh/Durham has these unmarked construction trucks, filthy things, frequently spewing debris on cars behind them on freeways. My worst experience was one in 2002 misting droplets of hot tar, many of which peppered my Jeep. Took me 2+ hours to remove them with glass cleaner.

I saw two TSXes today around 7 AM on my way to work, both were CGP.

The first one was behind me on the on-ramp to 280 North from Saratoga Ave, and was behind me until there was an opening for the carpool lane.

The second one passed me in the carpool lane about 15 minutes after the first sighting (different license plates).

I see a TON of TSXs but only a few modded ones. I have seen a few AZers before and I think that's pretty neat.

BTW, anyone with an 06 PWP/Ebony with plates "ACCORD R"? I know I posted this around last Thanksgiving but I saw the car again a few weeks ago in SF parked on Irving near 20th Ave.

I've seen an Acurazine bumper sticker. I don't know how to acquire one though. I see between five and ten TSX's in the course of running a couple erands, so yeah, too many to mention specificaly. They're usualy stock, and of the less favorable colors and driven by what apear to be demons wearing people clothing. I might mention it here if I see a debadged TSX though.

I saw the first GREEN tsx ever, with CT plates, headed north on the I-95 in MA yesterday, around Lexington/Burlington. Nice colour! It was stock, not sure if it's anyone on this forum? Very subtle green, it looked like a CGP at first until I looked closer...

Saw a gray (CGP?) TL at Brier Creek (Raleigh, NC) last night, de-badged .... Looked a little less boaty with the lessened chrome on the tail.

Whoa, haven't seen you for a while!

I didn't get a chance to check out his rims since I was going the opposite direction but I'm pretty sure that the rims had a polished lip.

Any 04/05 CGP with spolier at 24 Hour Fitness on Ocean Ave this morning? Pulled in next to my 06 probably around 9am.
