Post Your Before/After Pictures! (1G TSX)

So the 3G TL has a thread like this and I like the idea, so I made this thread. Post up your before and after pictures.

The most stock picture I could find. (I bought the car in August of 2008)


January 2010

Paint the calipers black, that's what I did and they pretty much disappear from view lol.

Snow storm this past wkend...we got more snow today and this coming wkend is expected to be another doozie.

Sittin low but on OEM rims and grille again for winter mode. I really shoulda raised it up but was too lazy to swap suspension lol.


Stockie
Very first time I brought her home from the dealer (crappy bberry pic)


1st snow

Summer setup as of now (I need to do a photoshoot this summer lol)

lol I don't know how you manage to go that low. NYC has such bad roads and the ramps to get into stores and stuff are so steep. My lip is all scraped up and it cracked a bit and I'm still at stock height... I wanna lower it by summer but idk. Going into my garage I have a 1inch clearance cause its a steep slope...

lol..... you wanna talk about clearance??






sorry about the pic whoring. but.... if you like it and can stick to it and the stuff it takes to drive lowered, then go for it.
i got 0 clearance. scrape almost every time heh. but at this point it doesnt even bother me it just sounds normal.
