Nice. I have the same wheels only in machined silver. Like the blue. 
Funny you say you need to drive less. I would like to drive a little more! I only have 46k on my '04. My commute to work is so short now.

, my daily commute is rather short also, it’s a real drag as soon as you get comfortable driving, it’s over. I would like to go on a trip also and really get to spend some time actually driving my car instead of staring at it.btw; crzyazn what sort of shifter is that, how does it compare to stock, grip, feel?

Yea i went with tein ss and a bit lower this spring.
I raised it during the winter.
I take my time parking =) haha and use that mirror make sure i come in straight so people don't ding up my door.
The left side is my hardwired passport escort 8500 x50
right side is an ezpass clip
Momo cobra shift knob. Got it used from another memeber, its like stock better feel for shifting.
Just way too hot to touch in summer.

p2r throttle body and maybe a supercharger but that won't be practical as the other small mods.

i don't know how you back up that perfectly w/o hitting the curb when you reverse! props to you!
To me, it's hard to back up with the TSX into a parking spot because the trunk is so high you can't see what you're backing into.

I use the passenger mirror aim it slightly down so i set myself up straight to fully back up with out getting near the curb.
Straight angle = no curb rash, The first time i hit the curb doing it was when i was in a rush, but i learned from my lesson no rush when i need park away from idiots.
I rather spend the time to park it close to the curb, and avoid as much flying doors or crooked parked cars.
Plus backing up is real easy, when they set up a stick during the winter for snow plows.

when did you switch over to tein SS? i thought you had basics.
my front end has more and more rock chips/nicks too. i doubt i'll fix it anytime soon, but i'm definately going probably get the bumper and hood repainted down the road when my mileage is higher, or my front-end looks like a craterface.
car is looking good.
