Just some shots of my baby...

So I had today off work, it was gorgeous here in CT (60 degrees and plenty of sun), so I gave the TSX a wash. I've never posted pics before, so I figure, why not! And away we go...

















Just put the A-Spec suspension on last weekend, and I like the slight drop it gives. Right around where I want to be for a daily driver. Got a Cusco front upper strut bar on order, and I've put myself on the waiting list with TireRack for some 18x8 WedsSport SA-70's in gunmetal, which I should have in June or so.

Also thinking about painting my calipers glossy black and putting white "ACURA" decals on 'em, ala the TL Brembo setup. Anyone know where I can find the decals? Searching reveals AZiners found them on EBay, but I can't seem to track any down. Help would be appreciated!

Couldn't get comfortable with the idea of 17's + A-spec suspension. The design of the SA-70 makes the wheel look bigger than it is, so long narrow spoke with no lip + 18 = should look great. Plus the SA-70's my first choice by a landslide, and why settle?

Yeah, I'm pretty fickle about wheel selection.

Right now I'm debating between the DC header or the Greddy SP2 catback as my next performance mod. I kinda want to go at it in order, header -> RT cat - > catback, but another part of me wants to hear a nice exhaust note every time I start her up.

gotta love them JDM tails, I like how bright the turn signal looks at night. I sold my USDM tails to help offset the price of the new tails I got.

Yup, I love the amber blinkers. I'm still trying to sell my tails. Had a potential buyer but haven't heard anything from him/her in a while...

As for wheels, I've got a set of 18x8 +50 WedsSport SA-70's in light grey on order from TireRack. I should have them at the end of May, and I can't wait.

More immediate mods include Cusco front strut and Type 1 lower front brace, which should both arrive this week and be installed on Saturday. Also looking into painting my brake calipers glossy black.

Nope... might just be the lighting.
