my son has the Catz Zeta headlight system, they are supposed to be the closest thing to real xenon lights. They come with ballasts and special bulbs. They look pretty close to real HID's. I'll put some more pics up of the lights in a little bit.
As for racing, i try to conserve my gas :-) My son loves to race his car, he's always taking it to 8200 RPMS. He did race his friends 99 TL and beat it by about 2 car lengths at 80-90 MPH, I don't encourage him to race. I'd say it's a close race, his car is pretty fast!!

Winkly, nice cars, very clean. Your son probably is a member of ClubSi.com right?

Those are the OEM fogs on his Si, he got them with the car. Check out hparts.com for the best prices on them. I know to install them you have to chop up the bumper...so be careful if you get them.
And yes, my son is a member of clubsi, they had a nice meet at manchester honda last friday, a bunch of the northeast members showed up.

O.G.
Nice rides and pics. 
BTW, it's time to lower the TL and put some rims on there.
Oh, the clear lights also look really good on a black TL.

My mind tells me that's the biggest waste of money, spending $300 just to change my blinkers from amber to clear. However, my heart says those bad boys would look awesome on my silver TL. I think my heart's going to win out over my head.

He is lowering his car when he gets out of school in a week. He already bought the eibach pro kits and KYB AGX adjustable shocks. I don't really want him to lower it, but it's his money.

My dad and I just play golf together.
He doesn't like that I spend money on my car, even though I am 28. He just makes these subtle comments like they are supposed to make me feel guilty.
That's cool that you two can share a hobby together.

hehe, i like the plates too! I wasn't sure about OUTRUN, i used to have that on my red mustang. I thought it kinda fit it...wasn't sure about the Si, but I think my Si's faster than my stang...so i decided to keep the plate.
