true, however... if you have ever tried to take a picture of lights you'll know that if you don't want a huge blur of light you have to adjust for exposure which looks like less output than what's really there. Keep that in mind as well.

I actually don't think those look too bad.

You are right though, Audi has that market cornered. Honestly, every other car just looks like posers to me. I absolutely hate the Lexus ones.

Only thing im not sure of is the stenciled TSX logo ont he right.... didnt come out quite so straight ... though its not horrible IMO. Will have to redo it when i have time.

Holy fak that looks TACKY...and borderline rice. Whatever floats your boat though...lol. Am I the only one here?

Dig the knob, exhaust, sway, downpipe and most other mods you have though!

Maybe if your car had red leather seats & accents like the Corvette, it wouldn't look so out of place. I personally dislike it as well. But like you said, it's your car.

On the contrary, if you've seen the special edition the seats do have a red hue to them, suede is so nice. Wish I had red cluster and those seats.

^They do... but it's much less noticeable than a completely red leather seat. lol


I wonder how our TSX's would look with red leather interior? Hmm...

I know for a fact that I would never ever do this mod, but that doesnt mean I dont like your car. Your car as a whole is coming together really nicely and your adding your own style to the build. Just cause I wouldnt do it doesnt mean I think any less of your ride. Just personal taste.

While i was putting on my car's shoes for the summer today, this is what came in the mail.



Took friggen 4 months to arrive. Will clear headlights and install May 13th. Might also see what else i can do with the headlights once i have them opened up.

Looks good to me. I would take off the tinting on the tail lights though, the reds seem to clash.
