30%!? They look much darker.. I ended up getting 15% all around on mine and I might have to get my 2 front windows re-done. I have been driving around with my sunroof open to shine more light in. I feel like I am bound to get pulled over.

I had 15% on all my other cars and it didn't look as dark as they do on the TSX. I have pics of mine posted on my progress thread.

 

Very nice pics...Kait's got nice headlights...and fogs.

 

Found a better photos of your fogs. They should be able to tell the difference in color.

 

pretty annoying that they were different colors, im hoping they burn in correctly. if not, it'll take a minute to change the bulb, as i showed you, just gotta order the right ones

 

I like the yellow, When the car is lowered you will have more of it projected on the ground. It'll look really cool, I'm considering going yellow myself, Although I love the bright white, Every car in my rear view has 5000+ Hids top and bottom, Im no different ;(

 

Thanks for posting Dave. Didn't get pulled over. Lol

And thanks for that pic! Submitting that one to the company.

And yes... 30%. In pics it looks darker than in person.

 

Oh...and on another note... my Tein SS is on backorder. -.-

I'm supposed to be lowered on April 7. Doesn't look likely now -.-

 

damm why?

 

take a pic when they burn in more. you gonna get overlays?

 

I don't know.. I guess a lot of people with 2nd gen TSX/8th gen Accord realllyy want those coils. Tein isn't giving any estimate of when they will have more -.-

I will do! Yes, I am definitely doing the overlays. Just not sure if I will buy my own on ebay or have my tint shop do it. They do it for $30.

 

Let me know which one you go with.. $30 isn't bad for a tint shop to do it. I wonder which would be the better look.

 

Kait,
order here...take a piece of plain paper, hold it up to your fog and use your nail to go around the edge to create a template. Then transfer it to the back of the vinyl, cut it out and apply it one edge to the other (to avoid bubbles). Cheap and easy...leave a slight area around the edges to allow heat to dissipate to avoid the browning from theat heat.

After the tsunami, there has been a shortage of a lot of japanese built parts IIRC...check with kuruma motoring on ebay. I've bought my last 3 suspensions from there...SOMEONE out there has a set in stock.

J.

 

^^ Thanks

Yeah, it's not on my high list of priorities, but I will be doing it eventually. I'd probably rather have my tint shop do it so that it looks legit. It'll probably look dumb if I try to do it, lol.

 

It sucks having coilovers on back order!

 

No problemo!
Well, what I've learned over the years is that just because you're paying someone to do something, doesn't mean they'll do a better job than you would (and usually they don't). lol...


That's also why I do my own mods...plus, I still have a broke high school modder mentality.

 

damm the waiting for coils is that long happy that i got my during "winter"

 

Haha, yeah New Jersey didn't have a "winter" this year.

And I'm OK waiting. I know I can't do it myself, I wouldn't even try.. lol.

 

Dude, you are hurting. Stop it.

 

Everyone.

Help me channel the coilover gods. If we combine together as a force maybe my coils will be available by the time that I need them.

:Hummmmm:

 

nope. wont do it

 

>=O

By the way.

Got my HIDs. They sent me two brand new ones. Hopefully these dont piss me off. I was going to try to do it the other day but the wires looked all confusing. LOL

 

LOL...
sorry to say, but that sounded like a girl writing that..."wires looked all confusing"!!!

AHHHHH!!!!
So, what's the dilly with coils...the God's respond yet?

 

No. They are on vaca or something.

Bastards.

 

Order from somewhere else?

 

Most vendors dont necessarily carry stock, instead when they receive an order they just place an order of their own from Megan and have it sent to you, I believe in this case Megan is out, since I have heard other people comment about the fact that Megan Ez for 08+ Accord is on backorder, so you may be out of luck unless you can find a vendor that MAY have one in stock

 

im home now(birthday weekend, celebrations started *officially* 3 and a half hours ago) i'll PM you my number, just let me know if you wanna meet up and i'll put them in for you

 

so what HID bulbs are you using? wasnt sure what oyu ended up with

 

I prefer The teon basics over The ss. The ss pissed me off cause i would constantly change The strut setting and never felt satisfied with how it was riding.

 

Dave -- thanks but relax and enjoy you're weekend I'm not making you do this again, lol. I'll get around to it .. eventually.

I am going to just wait out the coils. My friends shop ordered them and I am trying to give them business. I don't have a problem waiting, I just hope I don't have to wait TOO long

 

you saw how quick my bumper comes off now, yours is the same, or i can do it from underneath, but i mean its up to you. i already spent the last 5 hours at jersey city medical center. some douchebag tboned my friend who is a vocalist/bass for the band i was going to go see perform at some bar tonight, so yea lol.

 

^^ Oh damn. Is he alright?

 

5 HOURS AT THE HOSPITAL...let's hope so!

Give the poor guy something to do, Kait!

 

he's shaken up, and deaf in his left ear for atleast 6 months according to the doc, which sucks even more because he is in a band

too late now, im back at school

 

I'm really sorry to hear that about your friend...could have been worse, can ALWAYS be better! I wish him a speedy recovery!

Kait, don't sweat it, I'm sure there are plenty of mechanics that are itching to get their hands on your headlights...

On a serious note, I agree with giving friends the business...but how long is a "long" wait?!?! How long have you already been waiting on the suspension?

 

ohhai!

 

^^^sounds like you already have a volunteer!
Don't worry, those aren't really his hands...otherwise I'd fear for your headlights.

 

^^^ and the tries continue

 

This is like the rockstar143 instant reply thread now.

They all are...
