Yeah it is very hard to paintmatch the white. Paint is lookin' fresh though. Car looks great but about the chin thing, I would just lower the front more and put on the sides when you can, it looks incomplete without it.

I'm looking to get a decklid spoiler, where did you pick up yours from? Oem is too expensive so I can settle for 'oem style'.

I, like many others on this forum, got my decklid from eBay. I think its called the spoiler store? Google it.

Summer mode looks fantastic, ttk5. Are there any drawbacks to not having center caps on the wheels? I was thinking about removing mine but wasn't sure if rain or dust would have any negative effects. Do you use a special lens for your photos? I noticed Kowloon mentioning he needed new lens.

Anyway, nice job. Maybe I'll take my summer road trip to Vancouver this year (actually did this in winter '06 and it was torture in a '98 Camry!).

ya what lense are you using?

Hmmm, now that I see the pictures again, I think I'm going to agree with Killer a bit.. The rear looks a bit too much for me! I'd prefer Aero/Mugen/stock but your car still looks bloody good nonetheless!! How's your side skirt going?

ttk5

Drawbacks to having no center caps? Looks ugly lol..thats pretty much it. The OEM wheel center caps almost fit so hopefully some cener caps off a honda 15" or 16" might fit.


For my pics I just used the regular 18-55mm kit lens. Everytime I save up enough money to buy a new lens I end up just spending it on my car ugh. Id love to get the sigma 10-20mm though, or a 35mm 1.4 prime lens. What camera did you buy again?

I totally agree with you. The aero bumper/mugen looks much cleaner but its unaffordable. Skirts are going ok..gotta couple quotes from a few stores but still havent found the right shop. Thanks for the compliment though...sounds like there will be some changes made to your car pretty soon too.

ya bro, the type-s full bumper is sick but god is it expensive. If we got the type-s bumper instead of the aero bumper i would be saving my lunch money right now...

Euronoob

Ohh ok! I'm interested in how it's gonna look! I'm not sure weather or not I should just get mud guards or get a kit. Initally, I was going to get the Aero skirt and rear but then I was thinking just mud guards and now I'm back to contemplating between the two!! Any suggestionss?

For now, I'm saving up money for coils and on the side, I'm trying to do little cosmetics like window visors, roof spoiler (not sure yet) and red Honda badges! Though I bought ugly OEM ones in Australia that are chunky whereas the OEM ones in America etc are more slim, so I'm trying to get rid of mine and purchase the ones online (Heeltoe/eBay).

Car parts just gotta be so expensive ):

Car is looking awesome ttk. The fitment is the best I've seen so far for a replica kit...rear looks almost perfect, but the color looks a bit off. The rims are a great addition.

KillerG

i do love the stock aero kit (sides and rear) but i have mudguards, and i just looked at em recently on a wax job and they are FUCKED up. if you live in a rocky area like i do (nj turnpike...god damnit) then maybe itll be useful lol

Euronoob

Nah, I won't have any trouble with gravel/rocks/dirt unless I'm going camping or something and that's rarely with the Euro! The skirts and rear are gonna be costly though ):

defconskylude

defconskylude

this thread should be locked. it has way too many pages.

ttk5

haha...its not THAT many considering how long ive been apart of this community. Your original PMM CU2 thread had this many pages too didnt it?

MrOtocinclus

5 pages, and I've set my profile to the maximum number of posts per page!

defconskylude

i kid. i kid

i dont remember

tobwac

After you post new pics of a car the number of pages will increase significantly

ttk5

Washed my car and took a few pics to show the few changes. Its just my rear lip and my front grille; it was finally repainted professionally! My wheels are off because I am in the process of selling them. Camber kit and coilovers are ready to go, fenders are rolled..just need the wheels. Anyways, some pics I took just now. All comments are welcome good or bad. Took another side shot for you to ed..showing the "chin."
























cell pic of what i wake up to every day. its like torture

tobwac

those are some very nice pics
I see a lot people choose to do coils now than springs which makes me wanna go that route too lol
already winter mode on with stock wheels ?!

Mr. NC

Nicely done good sir

ttk5

tobwac: stock wheels on cause im tryna sell my 19's. but if it starts to snow here in vancouver ill just leave the stocks on. Whats next for your ride man? you went crazy in the beginning and just kinda stopped.

Mr.NC: why thank you sir

tobwac

oooo I got you
I dont really know whats next... I was actually looking on the dvd nav unit from china but when I email the guy he said it wont fit and now I dont want to blow $600 on something that is not gonna work. Maybe next spring Im gonna start with the modding game again

HondoGermany

I always love to see your car and your pics! What wheels are you looking for and what size?

tsxronald

Nice shift knob. Where did you get it? Was it hard to install?

aysertypes

great car not fan of the honda logo on the gril

ttk5

the wheels i really want to get are varrstoen 2.2.2 which are te37 replicas. ive done more research on the size and dont want to say anything for sure yet thanks for commenting, my twin lol.

knob is from twm performance. it is the m1 abrams knob..it weighs close to a pound. the install was very easy..hardest part is getting that nut off the shift lever. i went with this knob over other knobs this style cause this one threads all the way down...so its sitting as low as possible.

ed_423

ronload likes your anal bead shift knob

nice progress man, and thanks for the side shot!

nice coils

visconti

just wondering what's the tyre spec on your work emotion? thanks

ttk5

In the most recent set of pics with my grey works, I had
243/35 in the front and 245/40 in the rear. They were mismatched because I needed to replace the rear and my friend had these available. I really liked the 245/40 actually because it filled in the tire-fender gap really well. I was almost tucking, just on springs.

ttk5

^ lol i meant 245, not 243.

I found a new set of wheels I want to buy and I am going in for a test fit this thursday. 275/30/19 on them now so it will be interesting to see how wide the CU2 can go. The wheels are mag blue ..I could potentially have them on my car as early as next Sunday if the tires work. Most likely they wont though ahaha..275's...yea right
