Finally got around to ordering a nav/gps unit. It should be exactly the same as Tobwac's. I have been emailing the owner back and forth for about a week now talking about discounts and getting details. I was able to get a slight discount on my single unit, and if more people are willing to order them he will discount theirs depending on how many are ordered(and I hopefully will get a small refund for peddling the units). My total cost was $515 shipped. I will do a write up once I receive and install it to make sure everything works before I let him know about any other orders. Just giving a heads up so keep it in mind if this is something you would be interested in.

I would probably be interested if everything works (including temperature display) and the price could be reduced slightly.

 

Will it be annoying to reach that far into the den?

 

Tobwac said all knobs/buttons worked on his.

 

ahhh so basically you get it for NAV and that's it?

 

^^ I think it also has a video input.... i'd plug in my phone to it and mirrior it's screen if i got it.

 

Nav and backup cam. I mainly want it for the backup cam.

 

This is some baddassness right here!

 

Wow that's pretty gay

 

yea wow.. theyre going down the drain

 

Those are too busy.

 

ron jon wheels arent exactly wow worthy in the first place...

 

I think they look kinda cool, they give you the option to make your custom design. Not sure if it's laser etched or what though.

 

swag

 

Need opinions. Calipers and brackets in the mail.

Brackets will be a matte black.

So the calipers

RL BBK calipers powder coating

Base color Graphite metallic/

Q: What color for the ACURA text?

Black
White
Raw
Polished

Then clear will be applied.

I am leaning towards black as i like very subtle mods but not sure.

 

Pink

 

yellow

 

im with joe, i really like them. i would if i could afford them even after the discount from photoshooting my baby

 

pretty sure you can just get a wheel and go get it hydro dipped with the same pattern.

 

Look at it though. It's only on the front faces of the spokes. So either they taped that thing off perfectly or it's something else. I think this gives people the option to be really creative and add subtle touches to the car.

 

Hydro dip before assembly.

 

Assemble before mounting.

 

so... do we have anyone here from moscow? i'll be flying out of NYC tomorrow to Moscow for a week, would be cool to see some CU2's. also if anyone has connects for parts there, lemme know. im probably down to get some stuff and bring a suitcase full of car parts back

far as i know Chivik hasn't been on here in forever and idk if anyone has his contact

 

whats in Moscow?
family? fun? russian brides? work?

 

I would like a roof spoiler. Shipping it to me would kill it though.

 

Definitely Russian brides.

 

What's the best way to take out the bolt directly above #4? I was able to take the connector out by taking the other bolt out and manhandling the rubber connector out, but if I want to easily switch between loud/regular I could permanantly take the bolt above #5 out, leave the other one in and switch in 5 mins.

 

have you taken off the front bumper yet?
and when are you gonna come chill with us?
super bowl sunday? at scottieHigh5's place. oh in spring cypress!!! so your 16 year old ass doesnt have to drive far!!

 

No haven't taken off my front bumper yet. I would go to the meet on Feb. 1 but I just went to C&C in January . Parents don't let me drive solo on Highways and I don't want to wake them at 5 am to come with me again to C&C. If there's another meet at that mall like last time or in Katy on a Friday I probably can come. We should just have the next meet in Katy Me and Jesus are already here.

 

its at some ones house.
the game starts at like 5pm -ish, I think?


so, no. you wont have to wake your parents up again at 5am.


take off your bumper and every question you seek will be answered.

 

Too lazy to take of my bumper. Ain't no one got time. By 5 am I was reffering to C&C since that's when I usually leave. I would have to bring a parent if I went to the game since I have my permit and it's outside Katy. Didn't know I had to take some stupid 14hr driving class to get my license.

 

if you're too lazy to take off the front bumper, you cant reach that bolt.


and you live in katy?

 

Yea, I live in Cinco Ranch which is in Katy.

Guess I'm taking off my bumper. No other way?

 

lol

 

get used to it!!
once you learn how to do it, you'll have it off in 15 mins the next time.

its the only way to do intake stuff and head light stuff.

 

polished letters

 

Doesnt take that long or effort to take off the bumper, front or rear both are pretty easy..

 

^you're one of the few people who jump right in tho.
I remember installing the coils on your 2nd gen TL.

"so, are you gonna go low?"
"no, my momma will kill me."


2 weeks later, the car is DUMPED!!!!

 

I want to get in on the ass-less car pics

 

Count me in
