Didn't want it on the outside since I didn't want it to look rice. Yea it took me 4 years. graduated with a political science degree to realize I want to be a nurse (a big reason is that I wasn't able to find a decent job) So currently finishing up all my science prereqs hey ed, nothing wrong on being a murse. All my friends say that I should go Ducati shopping haha |

Man! those rolling shots are the end are super nice. The side view of your front end is just so sick with them clear corners.
|
Awesome write up. Awesome mods. Love the rolling shots too.
|
Nice car! You said you were getting 20mm spacers for the rear and moving the 15's up front. Did you have 15's all the way around before or just in the rear?
|
nice car and I love the smoothness to the overall look to it!
random question to everyone, what does it mean to "clear the headlights".. I noticed some of you guys doing it or intending to do it, what do you have to do and what is the effect of it afterwards? |
Clear the headlights means taking out the amber portion of the side markers and replacing them with clear ones. There's different ways of doing this but I too am curious as to which way you did it. I like your rims too. Also, love the progression of your car. I'm glad you took off the plasti-dip from your rims...IMO it looks better like that. Keep them updates coming when you can. :D

Awesome progress thread

Good luck with the nursing, my wife will be done with her BSN in May '12, then wanted to start with her CRNP, completely online through WVU and only and addtional 4 semsemters. I hope my sugar mama comes through so i can start some serious modding. LOL |

Finally had the motivation to wash, clay, compound, polish, wax my car. Also Lexol clean and condition my leather, since it gets kinda dirty from my dog. Took me a good 5 hours. Im seriously considering getting a buffer. I'm getting too lazy for this.
Enjoy http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...402_190753.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...402_190747.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8643.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8644.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8646.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8652.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8656.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8664.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8666.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8670.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8674.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8676.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8678.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8683.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8685.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...a/IMG_8686.jpg |
I see you removed your taillight tint. Car looks great as usual and your dog looks pretty awesome. I drive my dog around in my TSX all the time as well. You should find some new places to take pics ahaha

personal preference. it definitely makes it unique thats for sure. Its kinda G but im not sure if thats what you were goin for. Regardless, the rest of the ride looks gorgeous and is perfectly classy and dark.
Most people when they go for a murdered out look usually cross that fine line between classy and trashy but you handled it well, those rims are sweet and set off the car for sure |
Hmm, just wondering, why is your bluetooth screen red? Is that a setting?
Your car looks amazing, good call on your part removing the taillight tint!! |
