No, I went through Autofashion, but I do know of Zippy. We go way back, we all hung out with the same crowd. Curtains, fusa, and the rope will come later.

originally wasn't going to go with the jp neckpads, but couldn't justify paying 380 for the garson ones. regardless if they were memory foam or not, could not justify the purchase.

lol, i use to think that way and i will say, i use to hate on people like me. this was back in high school where i didn't appreciate the vip industry. i have matured since then and appreciate all types of themes and styles. i figured i'd give this a go since i have already done the jdm/performance theme, wanted to try something new. but you're right, old asian people love things like that. im just glad im rocking something that's a bit more aesthetically pleasing versus those chinatown hello kitty crap.

man i love the install of the lexus exhaust tips
I've had this idea also for a few months, but i didn't knew it was already been done.
here in belgium i've never seen it before.
Could you maybe give me a couple of detailed pictures of the tips on your car?
Do they line up well with the curves of the acura bumper?
Because i have the exact same bumper that you have.
Thanks.

Hi guys, sorry for going MIA on you guys. I've been busy with school. In regards to the buffer, no biggie, it's an orbital buffer. Very little harm can be caused from it. In regards to the exhaust tips, it lines up to the bumper perfectly. DTM Autobody added fiberglass to fill in the gaps, making it completely flushed and aligned to the grove of the bumper. I paid a pretty penny for this setup, it ought to be perfect.

Some good news guys! I will be working on some projects this month and are as follow:

AERO Front Bumper Conversion
ATLP Grille (Ed, you will have another brotha) lol
Paint match SE Visors Chrome strips to the OEM Chrome color.

Maybe some more, all depends on the fiance. It is my birthday this month, so we'll see...

Updates:

Birthday just passed and my friends and family decided to get me a lot of goodies this year. Most surprising is that the misses arranged all of this and personally bought the CAI herself. Very thankful.

Injen CAI
App Radio 3
ProClip Iphone 5 Docking station

Will be posting up pictures soon. However, my install will integrate with the bluetooth voice call and hang up buttons in addition to the standard steering wheel control. I've read a lot of threads regarding the interfaces and found an interface that will work better than the PAC. Also, I got the metra double din kit, which matched the interior finishes pretty well. It was actually painted with the same granite pearl paint. Will keep you all posted.

Hey Wilson. How are things? I see you got some new toys.

You must have painted the bumper? I'd love to see how your new toys turns out.

Keep us posted!

Hey Edward! How are you? I finally painted my bumper and was very happy with the results. I will post pictures when the grille comes in. I just installed the head unit and intake. Looks and sounds pretty good, especially the head unit. It made a world of a difference to my speakers. It now sounds like I have a system.

Any new toys on your end?

I am glad you're happy with the new bumper & the new HU looks very awesome. I am actually considering upgrading my stereo system as well. I been looking at Alpine system (mainly w810 or w840). Is the pioneer HU easy to use? And how was the install Wilson (did you diy?)

I am very happy with the pioneer Headunit, mainly because it's a capacitive screen vs resistive. The glass feel adds a nice touch to the car and makes it feel like a solid crafted machine. As far as the install, I did have someone install it. However, if was more of a team effort. I had to find all the pieces for him( harnesses, dash kit, bypass, steering wheel interface). Guided him on how I want everything wired since I have a iphone charging dock that I purchased from proclip. He's actually going to finish it up tomorrow and reprogram the controls. He just auto-detected the controls , so only mode, volume and track works. Going to have him program PTT, hook on and hook off. Overall pretty satisfied . I could of waited to get the NEX RADIO from pioneer. Now that's a fast and smooth interface. However , it costs a lot more than the appradio 3 , hence why I settled.
