Just a pic of the car all taped up ready to make the drive down today. I will see you guys who are coming tomorrow..........



PS- F*ck the rain

 

i wish i could go.. i ahave a stupid grad party at 1pm that i need to go to..

 

how long did this take you?
lol.

 

Make sure you raise it up past stock height so you don't scrape I can't go, the boss screwed me, gotta be stuck in front of the pc all weekend.

 

^^it took about 15 minutes. cl plat, dont worry, i got that all set lol. good thing you not coming, save a few hundred bucks

 

Why all the tape??

 

Is that a wannabe clear bra?

 

prevent rock chips on the drive down?

 

yup

 

exactly to prevent any kind of chipping on the drive down

 

wow. just. wow.

 

it's a common practice actually it's painter's tape. easy on, easy off.

 

good idea man...i just got back from atlantic city a few minutes ago with some of sicrew we had to check out our booth space...thers a few cars there already....the rain was nuts on the way there and on the way back too...take it nice and slow, see you there bro

 

I did that with my car for HID, had to drive it ~80 miles or so. I had white tape though

 

awesome!!!

sorry to kinda hijack thread but i did the same too before driving up to northern cali



THIS is exactly why we gotta do it... (just 400 miles later)
rock chips & major bugs!

 

I beat you! No Tape!

 

hope you got all that off.

 

n00b. hah.

 

yup. everyone does that. you should see the group drive before a car show. you'll see many cars going altogether with a blue mask up front.

i think the factory nose mask thing would be useful for these occasions.

 

Guess I am a noob too....never heard of it! I would almost rather just repaint the car....lol. But I do see the point....just kind of "south of the boarder" looking though! I have seen Mexicans in our area hold spoilers and such on their car with that tape! lol! The tops was the spoiler made from plywood and 2x4's that was bolted to trunklid with bondo on it in the works....lol....nuttin has topped that one. Wish I got a pic of it!

 

Have fun at the sho man & POST PICS!

 

omfg...thats a hekka good job taping it...shit...from far away it looks like the bumper iis actually blue...1 day if ur bored...do that to ur whole car n take a pic of it...lol...thats amazing

 

poor mans clear bra

 

would food wrap work as well as the painter's tape?

 

lol i dont think food wrap is as thick as painter's tape.

 

damn thats a smart fuckin idea man!!!!!!!!!! after i get my front clip re-painted i think ill start doing that on my trips back home. eventually ill just get a clear bra but gotta wait for the paint to cure before i can put that one.

 

 

hahaha just that front alone took me a good ~25 mins! i would rather spend that time polishin' the car up instead

 

that infinity is damn sexy

 

Is that an M45^^^?

 

yeah, its my friends car.. its pretty sick... that was a pic of his car coming home from carlisle a few weeks ago

 

ha i just came back from seeing both of those cars at HIN. btw they look really sick in person... my friend couldnt believe it was a TL when he saw the custom front. good work

 

Where are the pics fellas?

 

i didnt take many pics there, but i took a couple,....will post em up in a bit. the blue tape is simply to prevent rock chips and bug splatter on the drive down. its not a poor mans clear bra, believe me, if i wanted a clear bra i would have one. the tape comes off very easy and leaves no residue. and ,its about $8/roll...you need about 1.5 rolls for each show...

 

hey njzprettyboy was this your first year in the show? you car looks sick in person. do you know why there were soo many less cars and tons of empty space this year? i havent gone in a few years but it was very different then. i was almost dissappointed to be honest. there werent even the cars that were outside the perimeter or anything. also i think i could go the rest of my life without having to see another evo again hahaa. i have pics of your car and others ill post later too. i also didnt take many either.

 

Hey guys. I took a few shots of njzprettyboy's TL. It looked amazing and stunned everyone who walked by. He's really done a great job with this vehicle, it is mint. He's also a very chill guy. If you guys want to see more coverage of the show, there's 400+ photos of HIN AC coverage at my website www.SiCrew.com

Now for the pics of njzprettyboy's TL:







And a pic of the models/DJ chillin' at our booth.


Had a great time at the show. Next stop is Shea Stadium June 24th for Hot Import Daze. SiCrew will be there in full effect with the girls, djs, and hopefully 20+ cars again and also my brother and I's project car, Nissan NX2000, and our drift squad PowerZamCam will be sliding around in the parking lot for the drift event. Hope to see you guys there, especially Plat and the rest of the acura guys. Peace!

-Anand, SiCrew
