PS: That drive by shooting... this sorta thing just sickens me. I'm from Toronto and this sorta thing doesn't really happen up here often. If anything, an isolated incident at a stupid house party or some shit. But nothing I can recall at this level. Actually there were gunshots at a mall, but I don't think anyone got hurt (thankfully). It just seems like these stories pop up from the states every couple of months or so. Very tragic and unfortunate.
I actually post on another forum and every time a thread like this pops up all the Canadians that post there are like WTF. There's some fucked up people in the US, as you can clearly see. Even though half of the stories won't reach national news, shit like this happens everyday.

I can't lie, some of these cars actually turn out looking good. Probably because they are nice ass cars already, but it gives it that matte look with a rare color.

I know people like the yellow for fogs, so I thought this matched pretty well for fogs and DRL. Maybe it's just the lip and painted grille, but I really dig the front of that car.

I probably could have gotten a ride if I really wanted to but I hate inconveniencing people. I wanted an adventure and had time to kill. My ride was through Highland Park and through SMU campus. Highland Park is the wealthiest part of Dallas and has some amazing homes. So I cut through all of those neighborhoods the whole way and it was beautiful. I chose tape because I absolutely hate riding with a backpack. I like to feel free when I ride.

So we just had a hailstorm outside. Thankfully my TSX was in the garage, but my sister's Altima took a beating outside lol. Hope there isn't any damage. Sad part is we have a 3 car garage, but the single car garage is filled with garage crap.

So hondata is useless if you don't have any mods on your car? Won't get me any more HP or torque since my car is stock?

No, my car is still rather stock and I can feel noticeable power gains using some of the calibrations posted here.

I'm stuck on my backup camera install. I got the wire for video down the hinge in into the trunk area but i'm stuck from there, what's the best way to pass it up all the way to the front of the car?

CCD is better than CMOS from what I read. Spend 5 bucks more and get a CCD if you haven't already bought that one.

Hey dudes, does anyone have experience with AT&T U-verse?

It looks like that will be my best option for the area that I'm moving. Kinda surprising 45mbps is the highest internet they offer, but the price seems alright and that should be enough for HD streaming/torrenting/HomeSharing.

What TV package have yall bundled? Do you like it?
