New 07 CGP (56k Beware)

I'm finally part of the AZ community!

I picked up my new 2007 CGP non navi TSX with Ebony interior on Monday. The car went straight to the shop to get a clear bra installed. Picked up the car today and had 38% tints installed.

I'm so happy with my purchase, the car is amazing! I nut myself everytime I see my car .

Here are some pics:

Picking it up at Pohanka Acura:




After tint and clear bra installed:








Got my clear bra installed at Detailed Authority in Herndon, VA and tints installed by LA Tints in Sterling, VA. I highly recommend both companies, they did a really great job.

Hope you guys enjoy the pics

Dished out 290$ for the tint. I paid a little bit more because I didn't want metallic tint, and the "ultimate" tint offered was more expensive. LA Tint was given a lot of good reviews on the TSX and TL forums, so I figured I would spend a bit more for better/quality service.

Definitely a progress RSB. When I was roaming around the forums prior to my purchase, I was looking to get the A-Spec suspension and 18" wheels, but now the stock look is growing on me. I'll probably get a case of the mod bug when I pay off the car.

Definitely, sign me up, maybe we can do a RSB installation too ?





Thanks everyone for the comments!

Definitely. In fact, we should start planning soon. CGTSX06 is planning on joining us soon at the next meet, so we should finalize all the meet set-up areas.

Can you determine the brand of tints you used (I assume they are "Dyed")?

I have been trying to figure out what to do with my CGP NAV - I'm scared of what metallic will do to my NAV.

LOOKS GREAT!

From my experience, if you go to a better tint shop, they'll offer different types of tint (I could be wrong). I know LA Tint offered tint that doesn't affect/interfer with car devices (ie radios, navi, etc). They are definitely more expensive...

I have 3m ceramic tint on my TSX w/ Navi and paid $289.

I was also worried about metallic interfering w/ the navigation.
