Just outta curiosity is your exhaust just mufflers + custom pipes? Sorry if this was asked already...AWESOME car, white would have been my 1st choice but they didn't have any at the time

Yeah, if I remember correctly, it is a custom single exhaust (unless I'm getting mixed up with another white CU2 with a single exhaust). And if I haven't said it already, the exhaust looks niceee!

Hey ttk5, is that Cypress?
I saw someone selling a spoiler in craiglist, is that where you got it?
Did you order the typeS replica kit from the states (Rawesome/ Defcon supplier)?
Can't wait to see the finished product.

Thats actually Hemlock Mountain in Mission. I went last weekend for 3 days and the power was amazing. I ordered the spoiler off ebay and the kit I got from sickspeed, which is the same seller as defcon's.

I haven't skied Hemlock since High School, my wife did take the kids there last month.
Noticed you took the black roof vinyl off. Are you going to leave the spoiler black like what it is on the third photo? The guy on craiglist is selling a CBP wing spoiler, which is not my style.

09TsxTech:Black roof is STILL ON! I will never take it off haha. Its just the snow on top of it. And yes I am leaving the spoiler like that in black. I did see the CBP wing spoiler too but yea, I did want the decklid. Chivik's black decklid inspired me to do the same.
Thanks Kid, Otocinclus, tobwac.

Still amazed at how nice your car looks!!! More eye candy please :P Also, with the decklid spoiler, how is the fit of it? I was going to get mine from the factory but it's too expensive.. I want to see how the fitment of the replica ones are.

EuroNoob: The spoiler fitment is great, but not perfect. There's like 2mm extra on each side of the trunk. The quality of the spoiler is pretty good though and they did a good job on the paint. I ordered it from the spoiler store on ebay.
ed: I cant run for tsx of the month knowing I have an unpainted lip kit sitting in my garage. If I get it on before the deadline, I'll consider it but I still have to swap my summers back on and fix a huge scratch I have on the side of my car

Could you link me please? There are quite a few and I wouldn't mind the one you have as you've "reviewed" it for me lol. Shipping might be a pain in the ass though for me..

your car looks sick. Loving the black roof and the black spoiler. i ordered the same decklid off ebay, very happy with it. also, i could be wrong, but i think the oem spoiler leaves a couple mm on each side.

Bro I gotta ask how are your fogs such a deep yellow? Lol I just installed mine and they look lighter so far..I realize that you have Lamin-X does this play a big part in it as well?
My boy told me it takes a couple hours of use to burn in the colour as well to get "darker" is that true?

The nokya yellow bulbs for our DRLs though arent as deep. And im not sure what you mean by "takes a couple hours of use to burn in the color." lol but I dont think so.

Ahh ok IC didn't know the Nokya's were HID's I just considered them replacement bulbs, since they never came with ballasts which I always associated with "HID Kits"
What I meant is that with more use, the bulb would get "yellower" sorta like a TI exhaust tip changing colour cuz of the heat. If this is completely wrong then ooops lol

Nokyas are regular halogen bulbs, not HID at all. 
i love em but the only thing is that every winter, for some reason they burst. Probably something to do with the cold.

My DRL Nokyas were fine, it was always just the fog light ones, and when they do burst they do leave shards of glass inside the housing. sucks
