Been awhile since I updated cause I havent really done much with the car lately...been too broke and trying to save money at the moment. But just thought Id post a few pics of some of the minor progress in the past month maybe.



Some of the LED work I've got going on just the reverse lights and the license plate light. Also got all of the interior done in LED just havent taken any pics of it.



Picked up some H center caps to get rid of all the A's and Acura symbols off my car. Excuse the dirtiness.




FINALLY picked up a brand new set of tires today after so many months. Paid 300$ for all 4 brand new and installed. Tires are 215/50/17 and it feels good to have brand new tires again. So new they still had the blue and red marks on them lol.






And a few of the whip as she stood right before I replaced the tires.

Next plans are: Replace oil pan, then slam her and get an alignment. Enjoy!

UPDATE 7/18/11:

so its been awhile since i posted any pics of my ride because i have no money to spend on mods lately haha. but heres a few updates. my cat and o2 sensor went bad a few months ago on me. however, at the time i just let it sit there and not fix and just kept driving anyways. then last week my CEL pops up again and its the same problem. turns out i had to fix it because my registration was up and it was time to renew it and i had to smog my car. so i HAD to replace those which cost almost 500 smackeroos (coilover money down the drain). so i went to smog my car this morning and it passed! (thankfully). and i just paid my registration so now im good a for a few years. Anyways, I was at the store buying some things and decided to snap a few pics of the tl since i just washed it not too long ago.









Enjoy! And I know the camera sucks its from my phone so I can't expect much haha.

And by the way since i just made a thread about it in the NorCal section, my secret plan is that im doing the 6 spd swap! You can check out the details of my thread in my sig but mainly am just looking for anyone in my area or anywhere willing to lend a helping hand when it gets here! Ive been researching for the past few months and reading everybodys 6 spd swap threads over and over in the 2g tl section and decided its time to do it. I found a motor, tranny and 6 spd parts for a good price so i bit the bullet!

Just finished washing and detailing my car today with one of my homies to get ready for the Roseville Lollicup meet later on today. Detailed the entire interior and wish i could really show how new it looks but my phone camera does not allow that cause it sucks. Lol but either way i cleaned up everything inside and out. Heres a few pics after everythings all done.














Soopah shynee!

So, its 2:30 in the morning here and im bored. Decided to take some parts out that have been sitting in my room for a few months now and admire them and snap some pics of whats to come in the future




A new, excellent condition front OEM lip since my current one is beat up bad underneath that i am planning on fitting onto the JDM bumper with fogs when i repaint my car


No way!


BNIB authentic Mugen air spoiler i picked up off a member on here awhile back and haven't installed it. Also going on once i repaint my car.








Also ordered my CL-S 6 gauge cluster today for my 6 spd swap which should be here within the next week! Excited much? Pretty much, enjoy!

Small Update 8/2/11:

Swapped rims with one of my homies just to see how these would look on my car. Stock RX-8 wheels. Personally, I don't like it that much and prefer the TSX but just thought I'd rock them for a few days and change it up.

Next: Coilovers coming in the next few days along with an install + lots of pics. Finally going to be slammed.

Here's a few pics of the wheels. What do you guys think?

Lol if i slam it then it would be hella flush compared to the tsx wheels. It sits hella flush already and im still stock height. But for me, idk i mean i like it but just not as much as the tsx. Well see though. Im probably going to swap back tomorrow. And then my coilovers come in thursday

Thanks guys. I'm down to install together but I'm going to be installing mine tuesday because that's honestly the only day I have off from work for the next 2 weeks. As for fender rolling I'm not sure yet but I'm probably going to have to cause I'm planning to go wayyyyy low but well see. Let me know when you get yours man and maybe we could do it at the same time

no need to roll fenders if on TSX wheels. it should clear even wayyy slammed. but if you plan to change wheels, go ahead.

^ ok that's what I figured since the offset is already good at +55. I figured I wouldn't need to. Plus I'll be rockin the tsx for awhile so I won't worry about rolling them until I decide to switch wheels
