Sport Compact Nights - Vancouver

Checked out the Sport Compact Nights in Vancouver, BC yesterday...to be honest, a little disappointed...I guess being from L.A. and going to the Hot Import Nights shows, it just doesn't compare...however, I did see a nice TSX...I was hoping to speak with the proud owner of this nice ride but didn't get a chance...is the owner a member on Acurazine? Here are some pics I took...there were some other nice non-TSX rides...including a few models (of course)...let me know if anyone wants me to post those pics

BTW, hope the owner is cool with me posting these pics...if not, let me know and I will DELETE immediately.

I have seen that TSX driving around in Port Moody. It looks pretty good, but I dont like the exhaust.

I have seen you driving in Port Moody. It looks very good on the road, especially the tinted tail lights.

nice car mate.

I've always wondered what the rear lights would look like tinted but the reverse lights left untinted. Looks pretty good. Is that the spoon spoiler?

Looks good, kinda dark for my taste but I drive a PWP, so what do I know.

Are you sponsored by Ray's? otherwise, those are some pretty huge graphics for the sake of it. And do you only have a front lip? Get the sides and rear and it'll look even better.

Nice...glad to see its a members ride...were you around at the show? I tried sticking around the area hoping to find you but with no luck...anyway, we should set up a photoshoot sometime with our rides...BTW, where did you get the spoon spoiler? And I assume your car is lowered right? What's your setup?

xizor-i get sponsored for other stuff.
i do not have side and rear but my car is too low. if i get em i'll scrape em really bad for sure
kammerz-i went to the show at 9 and i got the spoon spoiler from advance motorsport. my car is lowered by tanabe lowering springs DF210 and will install koni shocks in the near future.
jiggaman-i honestly don't know which film it is cause i just went to a shop and told them to do it. But i'm planning on changing them to rockblockers
wickedk24-thx

I would assume he only has the stickers on because of the show and that his ride doesn't have the stickers when it's on the road or it's his sponsors.

Nice TSX

No problem...pleasure was mine...I'd like to get that spoon spoiler, is that the same as the M3 lip spoiler? How much did you pay? I'm new to the Vancouver area so I'd like some advice on honest shops...still thinking about lowering my ride...but want to know some costs with that too.

hey I was wondering if joelh86 or anyone else knew if a 04-05 Mugen grille fits on a 06?
I don't really like the 06 grille as much as I like the 04-05s.

Thanks!
