well cleared my corners, painted my engine bay, now next is my calipers..any suggestions on what color? i was thinking black..what u guys think..and also adding a little spark under the hood..have pics of those too later..enjoy!

next mods:
calipers, lowering it, and looking for a damn kit..i need one bad

 

holy 4x4!

 

do those headrest move?

 

yes of course why

 

Go black, it'll look nice and not be too distracting... how hard was it to clear your headlights?

No leaks I hope?

 

Was the DVD player worth it? How often do you use it?

P.S. Engine block looks fresh, but why are there dark spots in the silver? Are those shadows?

 

headlights where pretty easy if you take your time...dvd..i got a good deal on it, so guessits worth it, dont use it alot...and yes those are shadow's

 

I wouldn't put a kit on it. I like you ride just like that. Just do the other things.

Hey,

I want to clear out my headlights as well how would I do it. Any instructions or know where some are.

 

And where you get the grill and the driving/fog lights were the fog lights easy to install.

 

i really like the all silver/chrome look. i love that style rim too but ur car is lookin way too high.

 

Need to get a drop atleast homey, ride looking good tho

Also: newborn? congrats

And, what happened on the black part in the engine bay where it says " 3.2 Tl" that white stuff?

 

^^ he painted over it, u shoulda masked it out, but meh.

drop that bitch soon, got damn

 

Can you post some close ups of the grill. Looks good

 

first of all, you stole my idea for the billet grill. second, you stole my idea of the embroidered headrests except i wanna get "acura". hahaha im just playing, looks like we got similar tastes. car looks hottt

 

i would like to see some close up pics of the grill as well. and how much was it to get that embroiderin done to the headrests?

 

madazh3ll: clearing was them easy, i used these instructions:
http://www.abunchofcars.com/2006/05...-headlights.php
its for Accord, but the same thing for TL.

Here is the pic of the grill :

i will get one closer than that, as soon as it stops raining out..


emdeejay: lol, sorry about stealing your idea's, haha..well you should see my truck/audio setup, we should talk so i dont steal something else...lol. It was about $45 to do the headrests..it looks even better in person.

Gril was a present from my bro. I will ask him..I love the grill..makes everything flow..

I know i need to lower it though..lol..its coming..its coming..thanks alot for the compliments and opions..keep them coming..they give me idea's lol

 

what year is that car and whered u get headrest stitching.

 

Nice, I like the car. Now that you got your headlights cleared you need to get the chrome coated bulbs to finish of the cleared look.

 

a lil too much paint on the VTEC part of the engine cover. Needed to spray everything evenly. i guess good job none the less.

 

my car is 2000 amd yes your rite...i am going to do that part again. maybe i will mask it this time..thought the black over coat would look good..

 

Well you kinda got what I got,





Sun is kinda hitting it, buts its a lil darker than the pictures. And on top where the valve cover is and the " Vtec ", its the same color

 

yah see i like that..looks nice with it black

 

WHY dont these covers look the same?

IllTL did you make an additional cover for yours?

 

^^ what you mean? 99 are the only ones with that cover design, the rest is what IllTL has which is 00 and up.

 

^^^ this guy is nuts! hell yes get a kit.

nice engine paint. it looks good.

 

anyone who can hook me up with a kit let me know lol

 

Nice I like it, get a kit and a drop

btw..what paint did you use to paint the battery cover? just high temp engine spray paint?

 

my choice for the caliper is black paint.. im not feeling the front grill but overall its nice ! good luck to find a kit, i now have front + sides but no rear to go with ill look really good one ill be droped

 

yeah i used high heat engine paint...its cheap..just get some primer and the paint...easy and cheap mod

 

i got a SSM 02 TL-S myself, just wondering what brand and color code did you guys use to get the job done? im guessing you take it off, clean it, prime it, and spray it, right??

 

yup you got it. Go to a autozone or any store like that. Just ask for high heat paint. I got the primer and paint. Just like you said, take them off, degrease it, prime it, and then paint it.
