One has boom the others got zoom
So I have been planning a "Pearl Harbor" style photo shoot attack on JTso's concubine and found the perfect time to make the assault...... You see, JTso has like 642miles on his car (or something low like that) because he will only take it out of the garage if the humidity is below 42.3% and the temperature is above 69.3deg. I have been monitoring "the concubine" for a few weeks and prepared my vehicle (washed it) just in case there was an opening or some type of window of opportunity. And there was! So I crept up slow and reversed in. The minute I stepped out of the car his "attack Koala bear" made his move. I dodged his first lung and tried to make friends with it, but it wasn't having it! So on the next lung I just grabbed it! Then I hugged it and fed it a leaf and all was good after that. The last I saw of it, it was headed towards the space needle saying something about climbing the biggest tree it has ever seen(photoshop anyone)
Once I made it past JTso's first layer of defense I was able to snap this picture.
Man is his car is a beauty! Well once I took this one I wanted one from a different angle so I moved my car to the spot right next to his and then took this pic
As soon as I snapped this photo the battery light blinked a few times and then the camera just turned off. I was like what the? How the? Then I realized something....Since there is no way possible that I planned "Pearl Harbor" style attack photo shoot with a low battery he must have some type of electromagnetic countermeasures. And sure enough.....when I pulled my car to the spot next to JTso's concubine I must have set off his electromagnetic countermeasures. Good thing the Sony Memory stick is protected by a space aged polymer and it only effected my power source or I wouldn't have any pictures to show. Johnny, is that security system integrated with the OEM alarm?

Nice pics CJams... you better watch out though, I heard Jtso's security system also includes not only electromagnetic fields, but toxic vapor releasing agents (possibly SARS?). Better be on the lookout for symptoms.

Damn, that both TSX looks great! It was great idea to see the two different kit of Kenstyle and Oem out there. It showed the comparsion of two different kit. It will help me to make decision which kit I want to buy it.
Hey Cjams, what happen to your side and rear? I am sure that it will looks badass if u add side and rear kit. Your TSX looked great!

You DID a great job, CJams
I just spotted you in Vancouver 6p.m. toward Oak Bridge.
You probable heading back to Seattle after the meet.
Nice Car Caught my eyes
Do you have a exhaust? when you passed by, I heard some loud exhaust sound.... Maybe from some TL buddies behind you.

We must have been on our way back from the meet when you saw us. No exhaust on mine yet. I think legendarycl might have exhaust? It was fun. There are pics in the "meets" section.
Gomez-I got the fog lights for $19.99 @ AutoZone. Couldn't beleive it when I saw them. I should have bought the other set they had left as well and sold them on line for like twice as much.......hmmmmm....:idea:

Anyways, $20 is cheap. Nice. I thought they looked like PIAA's...

Sorry stphy32! Thx for the compliments. No! They aren't PIAA's. They are Pilots and after the search I think I will go see if that other set is still there for $20 since they are expensive on the net.

YO CJAMS, I know we didn't get started out on the right foot but...I have a couple of questions.
How much did this run you in total? I remember you saying you got your kenstyle kit shipped for $618. How much did it cost to get it painted and installed (seeing I'm a noob). And how much did the install of the foglights run you.
So $618+paint+install^2=? if its less than 1k you're gonna see a CG version of your car rolling around in florida soon =)
Thanks man, appreciate it.

Anyway, Kit was $618 (I don't know if he raised the price or not yet), I bought the paint and prep stuff for like $100, The Compressor and Paint gun cost about $275. The rest was all my own labor. I imagine it would cost a good bit to prep and paint it then have it installed.
What part of FL are you in? My dad is in Deltona and he is the one that taught me how to paint. He might hook some of the Jamlando folks if needed. He travels between Jax and Deltona weekly.

i really like how your car looks cjams. very understated but still sporty. that and its carbon gray which is a great color.
i've got a satin silver myself (i'm really lazy about well washing my cars, so it was more for practicality) but every time i see a CG or black tsx it just catches my eye.
