Can't wait to see the wheels back on the car

savclaude

well now you kinda have an idea they are are not that wide only 11"rear and 10" front

thanks



same here man

not much done,I received my new stainless steel bolts yesterday.I wanted a slight change although the gold look better imo but the new bolts look cleaner.I could always put the gold back but these are really growing on me.

so stainless steel or gold?

rawger

Gold adds another element to the wheels IMO. The stainless steel blends in. So I guess it depends what you want from it in that perspective. I think the gold is pretty cool.

savclaude

thanks for sharing

ssjoeboe9

eeek

I like gold too!

buttt.... there is no wrong choice here!

**Edit- I think the gold would have been even better with gold lugs

xtcnrice

tough one.. to be ballin, or to be ballin. man.. I wish I had your wheels...

lol but in all honesty, I think the gold looks a tad bit better

edit: I wish I had ANY of your stuff! your car is on point!

BaoZZeR

I'm telling you, GOLD LIP!

SiiRBrooklyn

Looks good.

iCrap

....K. I guess i'll be the one to dissagree. Gold = bad.

The stainless looks waayyy better.

chuonthis

I vote for SS
Cleaner look and your car doesn't need the extra bling

savclaude

haha
hmmm not gona happen

thanks

the more I look at the wheels the more I like the new bolts.

Agreed.

So back wheels are now in the front, I got real lucky cause the face barely clears the RL caliper and I did not want a spacer there since the 10" wheel is a bit more aggressive then the 9" I had before, I can't even fit a quarter between them.I took the car for a test drive no rubbing no nothing.

SIR YOU ARE GIFTED, amazing paint skill.

iCrap

omg... that paint... Amazing job.

ssjoeboe9

who was this for?

Marcelechka

Love it!!!! We are so shooting next week

opboarding

When you use the shop's bays to paint your stuff I'm guessing you only pay for materials/paint since the hours are all in your free time? If so, how much does it cost you to paint a bumper for yourself? How about a whole car?

The CL turned out fantastic. Great job.

savclaude

Pictures don't do justice

A good friend of mine

savclaude

you better hurry cause he is moving back to Tampa next week

It does cost me anything when it comes to paint parts for my car as long as I can show that the part(s) are mine.the shop also let me paint my whole car for free once a year.I'm thinking on repainting the whole car next year or two.

xtcnrice

that is one awesome perk to have. and like someone said, you're very talented. kudos!

ps: paint on that CL is CLEAN

Car loooks great, any reason you removed your cai for stock airbox?

savclaude

thanks. I sold the K&N cause it was a bit to loud, I also live in FL were it rains all the time my car is pretty low,the chance of getting the engine hydro locked was pretty high.

camber kit installed

xtcnrice

^nice! which kit is that? how much did it run you?

thats SPC.

$405 at throwdown. shipped.

hard to find it cheaper.

i like spc over ingall and others ; to install other's requires removal of a Arm to have BJ pressed in.
spc is a simple straight up install. remove one bar at a time. match length with adj bar. reinstall. go get alignment.

Marcelechka

I know what you mean. One minute it's sunny with no clouds in sight. 15 minutes later, it looks like the world is coming to an end

I drive the CL once to twice a week if even that; haven't been to a gas station in over a month lol

savclaude

SPC, price was $300 new

Yes they are SPC but I bought them a bit cheaper,I got them from a Honda forum. A member was parting out a 2009 Honda Accord and Had them new and never got to install them,it was a steal.For those you didn't know the camber kit arms for the 2009-14 tsx are identical to the 2008-12 honda accord.

Man we have the weirdest weather ever haha.I always check the weather for the next 2-3 days before I wash my car .

savclaude

Quick cell pic with new wheel set up,I will post more with proper photoshoot
