cu2 that pr100 titanium looks pretty good too. I also need a pretty small face since my wrists are that of a small child. That somewhat limits my options since a normal man sized watch would look ridiculous on me.

 

If I wanted to increase the output of the fogs with the Lamin-X covers, what kind of bulbs should I go with? I was thinking 4000k natural white or yellow bulbs?

 

^ If you're talking about HIDs... That would make your "fog"lights useless when there's actually fog since it'll be scattering light all over the place. And you know damn well Houston get's some pretty bad fog every once in a while lol

And to add onto the watch convo... I like my G-Shock

 

GF got me an apple watch 42mm for Christmas. I could definitely live without it, but since it was free it's pretty cool I guess.

 

The color of the bulb won't affect the actual output of the lamps. You may *perceive* more output as you move from a warmer yellowish temperature in the 3700K - 4000K range and into the whiter/bluish range of 5000K - 6000K but the actual lumen output is more a factor of bulb power. The more power the bulb draws and converts to light, the brighter it will be.

 

^which adds heat.

 

Bumper plugs and TRS LED fog lights installed.

 

Thanks for the help in regards to the grill a couple of days ago.

Paint match was ideal, but didn't want to deal with the rock chips, so I ended up plasti-dipping it. Did it in gloss black, and the results came out better than expected (especially for plasti-dip)

 

The grille looks sharp. Good job!

Did you pull it off to do it or just spray it in the car?

 

Thanks! I didn't bother taking off the grill.

I've been researching, and can't seem to find an answer for a custom exhaust. I have the i4, and was thinking of creating a lower exhaust note from the boring stock sound. I have also looked into the Tsudo catback, which seem to be sold out everywhere, and other systems are out of my budget.

Any suggestions?

 

Nope. For off-the-shelf, that's about it. You can hop onboard the wait-bus with some of the rest of us; we're going to Greddy-ville but will probably get redirected to Olde Disappointment-berg...

Another option could be a custom Magnaflow muffler setup. More than likely, the corner muffler shop would be able to do it but you'd probably get wrinkle bent carbon steel piping up to the cans. Would give you the note you're looking for but won't be as shiney and "racey" as a full aftermarket system.

 

Okay 2G TSX Dorks. Have a happy new year. Be careful tonight and if you're out and about, watch out for yourselves and others.

Come back alive. Sick is okay, but dead is no bueno.

Cheers!

 

Man, I wish those bumper plugs were just a little more flush. Looks good though!

And are those the new design Morimotos? It looks like it. How do you like them?

 

Happy new year, 2G TSX nerds. Hope you all have a happy and prosperous year, and quick wrecking cars!

Now get back to nursing your hangovers and good luck getting rid of that sub-3 that you woke up next to, thinking they were a 9+ at the party last night.

 

Sounds like this is coming from a guy whose had a lot of those experiences.

 

I plead the one, two, three, four,

 

i was in austin this week and i liked it alot. food was good and alcohol was cheap.

i hsould have asked you texans where to go before hand. but i think i got most places there covered

 

Are those OEM bumper plugs? Down in Florida we done use from license plates and my car is coming in with one installed. :-( I prefer to fill and respray the bumper but is there an inexpensive fix pre-painted like those?

 

Bumperplugs.com will solve your issue

 

I miss that show so much.

 

Hey, any shots of these fogs on?

 

Ill try to get some soon.

 

Got some wheels today, 19x8 +45 Enkei Raijins. Has some curb rashes here and there but I'll hopefully take care of it at the wheel shop. Need some new rubber too...haven't decided on what kind yet. They just need to complete DD duties. Not bad for $350 for the wheels.

 

That's a steal! Congrats

 

yeah good deal, I'm a fan of those!

 

So the wheels have TPMS sensors from a 2010 accord. Will those work with my car or will I need to transfer the ones out of my old wheels or purchase new ones?

 

Will not work. Get new/used ones. There's a thread somewhere on here with all the applicable TPMS sensors and their part numbers. Once you find that, do a search in your local Craigslist, eBay, or even the Azine black market if you want used. However, the TPMS have a specific lifespan as the batteries are built into the sensors. If you get a fairly old set, they could either already be dead, or will die on you in a short amount of time, at which point you'd be back at square one.

I got my set off kostantinos for my first set of aftermarket wheels. His car is fairly need (facelift model) and I trust the stuff he sells. Haven't seen any issues with them. I then bought a set off eBay because it was kinda stupid cheap as a gamble and they're installed on my Work wheels; no problems so far either. But again, YMMV going used.

If you want new, check the various Acura dealerships that have an online website... such as Delray Acura/Curry Acura/etc.

 

who needs brakes?
i have 4 adams d-slot rotors with about 7K miles and OEM brake pads all 4 with about 5K miles. will be posting BM but thought I would offer you clowns first

 

I got a set of 4 TPMS on eBay from an RDX for $80. I was selling them for $70 at one point because I sold my wheels but nobody wanted them.

 

Id buy the tpms sensors but then id have to remount my tires, witch is another expense

 

just made a purchase for my car finally

 

tire pressure gauge

 

Baller!

Pics?

 

 

You need to plastidip it. Or CF vinyl wrap it.

 

Change it to emit red light instead. #specialedition

 

tire pressure gauge? I don't get it... why do you need this?

 

Maybe he doesn't have TPMS?

 

i get the light once in a while from TPMS to put in more air. but the gas station gauges aren't accurate. so i don't know what to fill it to. this is just to make sure they are all the same.

 

plus it was only 7 dollas. i had like 5 bucks left on a amazon gift card
