well in terms of longevity and durability i can't give you an answer. but people have these all over their engine bays and they seem okay, so i figure if they can take the heat without deforming they should be okay otherwise.

'Used cars' always change, the cars that aren't in the dealership show up there and they change VERY often. Online dealerships are for rarer cars that aren't in the dealership. Man this game is so cool for the $15 I paid for it, even has the DLC... it's the XL edition. I first had a 2004 Mazda 6 atenza, souped it up. Next a 2008 BMW Z4 M coupe, souped up. Now a 2008 BMW M5 working on it, all this in like 6-7 hours, game is awesome. Not paying $65 for the new GT6 or buying a Xbox one or Ps4 soon.

Oh and the Mazda 6 I found in the used cars listing, only the newer generation is available in the dealerships.

hydrographics i had previously done on my jeep.
The pattern is only half the battle. you need to apply a proper clear for the application......ie: high heat for under the hood.....or matte for A Pillars to reduce the reflection/

Hey guys, just a quick question on fitment. I found some hyper black varrstoen es1 in 18 x 10.5 + 15 for cheap. I am just wondering If i could make those fit my tsx with just a roll and no pulling of the fenders and if I could get rid of all wheel gap with my tein basis coilovers.

your dreams and aspirations are pretty great!!!
however, the amount of work you want to put in will not get you there.

you're going to have to be willing to do whatever it takes to fit that 10.5inch wide +15 rear.
by rolling and pulling fenders and stretch tire.

How lame would it be if I got aftermarket 17" wheels to the stock offsets since I'm to cheap to buy new tires?

so, you're willing to blow money on something that might not look great on your car, or has weak ass specs?

do it right the first time.
if you cant afford wheels, spend the money on tires.
then when you have saved enough buy tires and wheels

Its big in the VW community i'm definitely not the first. I have wanted to do it in the tsx for years but that trunk is a bit odd shaped. It actually flows well in the trunk I have my gorrilla gear trunk cover back there so it covers it for daily its more for show's if I ever go to any. I can honestly say I love this little car puts a smile on my face the TSX couldn't but glad my wife too it so I can enjoy the luxury every once and awhile.

Well, go figure the dealership put the wrong oil in the car and had to redrain it and replace it with the correct one. At least I got a discount on the price.

So concludes my blog for the day.
