My 00' SSM in ugly **Winter Mode**

Here is my 2000 TL, I purchased it back in June for a great deal I paid about 6k but the car has around 200 000km on it. Check it out lemme know what you guys think rims + a drop is comming in spring. I rustproofed the car for winter at the Acura Dealership, put a set of BF Goodrich Winter Slalom tires, and Installed a car starter.


20% Tint done all around Sittin on ugly ass rimzz!!


Here's the interior which I found is in amazing condition for a car with 200k on it, I replaced the radio to one from an 03 and added the Woodgrain OEM shift knob to give it that Luxury look!!

I dunno if its just me but I love our interiors, it reminds me of early 90s Japanese sports cars.... NSX/300ZX/Supra/RX-7... its very driver oriented IMO... i like it better than pretty much anything new i've seen... good job on keepin it clean

Well down here, roads are covered in salt during the winter. So the rims are gonna warp and have permemant salt staining on them along with the usual scratches and sh***.. My stock rims are in amazing condition so I wanted to keep them like that, I really dont have what happends to the steelies during the winter.

up in chicago, they lay down the salt way before it starts snowing, when they put salt on the ground when its snowing, they but a sh*t load of it. and through all this my rims are still fine, minus some scratch that it had when i bought it.
