Any referrals for clear bra in LA?

Here's another pic, this time a night shot, with me and the car:
Half of this picture looks incredibly sexy, but i cannot say which.

I'd cover the front of the hood as opposed to the bumper since the hood is metal and wont take the damage as good as the plastic bumper

I want to get all season floor mats for my car. I found this on amazon.com:
http://www.amazon.com/Acura-All-Weat...1017487&sr=1-1

It says up to 2010 only. Would it fit on the 2011? Anyone know anything cheaper / better?

Believe me, acurazine is a lot more fun if you try not to take it too seriously. We all bring something interesting to the table

Defcon, you are a master of cryptography, you found the hidden meaning haha

jav, dont buy those, they would fit the 2011 but at 80 bucks you might as well buy OEM since those are like 96 on acura super store and dont look ugly

Going to piggyback on this thread, as I'm in a very similar situation to the OP.

Is there an advised amount of time I should wait before getting a new car completely washed/detailed? My plan was to take it to a pro the first time.

For those interested, I've put up a *proper* photo gallery of my new TSX in the Photograph Gallery section.

So question - the bras - do they peel? What about washing the car or going through a car wash?

I'm still trying to find a place here in NY (I'm just north of NYC), any recommendations would be good

^ touchless or hand-wash ONLY. One soft-touch wash will ruin your car's paint entirely...

My bud's BMW has a clear bra done and his is peeling a little bit. No matter, because the warranty is good for him to go back and have it redone no questions asked. For him, the part that's peeling is in the crevices of the bumper which admittedly is hard to do. No excuses for the hood to ever peel.

I'm thinking of getting my tint some time early next week. On the black Acuras, do you guys recommend metallic or ceramic tint? Do people have pictures of each kinds of tint on Acuras? Thanks!

I heard metallic tints can mess with your navi if you have one.
