Your car is vey nice looking, but why isn't it lowered more? That'll make it pretty hot.

Thank guys! It used to sit lower but since I blew one of the tire (215/35) couple months ago, I change to new tire size (245/35/19) so I have to raise the car up a bit; otherwise they would rub both front and back whenever I go over average bump, dip, or pothole. New tires are sticking out too much but since I got a hell of a deal from my coworker so what's the heck, I put them on for now. I can still lower a bit but suffer in ride quality and I usually have 3 or 4 people in my car so it has to sit little high for now.

Sure. I'll try to come to the next photoshoot so we can have Ying/Yang theme!

Thanks. Oh yeah, way better but film tint still look different if you don't do painted headlight.

Ha ha, my car looks very stock! nothing done on the stereo department. Not much on engine, not much on looks.... Yup, they are rockblocker tint (lighter shade). Maybe time for me to change to darker shade?

Didn't know your car got into accident. Sorry to hear about it. I don't really know, guess the tint fade. Should I remove them and re-tint 20% all around? 20% front 5% rear?

What an awesome car. Any more modifications to the exterior would yield a diminishing return from here on out. Well...I suppose you could go lower heh, but yeah if it rubs too much then there's no point really.

What I want is a car looks nice, different, and not look like the same with every other mods car, not stand out too much (Acura's philosophy), and still be able to go pretty much everywhere without hassle from big brothers.
