enter the dragon (not 56k compatible)
decided to post a few pics of my car from this weekend's trip up to the tail of the dragon. long story short, had an absolute blast! really just glad to have the tsx back after over 3 months at the collision center and am proud to say it held up extremely well on the challenging course. here are the pics and look for a full write up w/ more pics in the off topic section soon (too tired to do it now). oh, i don't claim to be a photographer so if any of you photoshop gurus wanna play around with some pics then just go ahead.
enjoy,
vinny
HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY

:o no way. Is that by Lake Santeetlah? My grandparents used to have a place up there right on the lake and the last time I was up there I am pretty sure I heard about a road with a lot of twists on it called tail of the dragon. Saw T-shirts for it and everything, but no one wanted to drive on it with me cause they said they would get car sick

thanks for the comments!
chilly - looks harder, you'll see more than one scratch
tsx8282 - my tint is just a hair darker than what's legal in nc (not really sure)
aficionado - be on the lookout for my thoughts on the trip in the off topic section. if you wanna go there now, your gonna wet yourself once you see all the pics

rex, you do me proud bro -- thanks for the chop. seriously though, i don't even pretend to be an amateur photographer. i was merely taking shots of stuff i wanted to remember. maybe i just got lucky ...

great looking shots, the first one did it for me

So that is what the car looks like! I love the wing, don't think I have ever seen that before. You have a ton of mods on that car. It looks like you had a great time. Just think, when you drove your car last, the gas was at 2.50 a gallon. Now three months later, you finally get the car back and you are paying over four. What a bitch! Can't wait to see it in person. Have all the bugs been worked out?

Mine too.
Glad you enjoyed it. Saw your other thread as well.
Car looks good.
Lots of good roads in the NC/TN/VA/WV area. Hit me up and I'll give you a some suggestions. TSX is a great car for those roads.
