Thats what im thinking, that'll be next weeks project!

I just jumped into this thread but I really like where you are going with your mods. I would definitely paint the smiley face part of the grille blue, get the carbon hood, and CLEAR the headlights. Itll look sexy. Did you ever have plans to paint your lip or are you leaving it black? It kinda looks good if you do your hood and grille like everyone suggested. I have been wondering how a matte black lip would look on a PWP. Can't decide whether to buy the one off ebay for $100 and just leave it unpainted. Anyways keep up the work

VortexBlueTSX

I was thinking of painting it blue, but the plasti-dip looks really nice imo (Ill post more pics in the coming days) and ya im deff clearing the lights now to complete the front end. As far as the carbon fiber hood goes....of course i want it hahaha do i have the extra money to spend on it right now? NOPE hahaha so soon, cause its definitely in the cards. And nope, i like the Black and blue look so its going to stay like that....and i feel like it would look really good on a PWP, best of luck man and thanks for the kind words

VortexBlueTSX

So update on the car...its been about or around a month and a half and havent noticed any signs of failure of my alternator or anything..and enjoying the nice increase in power! Next up coming soon, is Strut bar, and throtte body spacer! Just thought i should give an update on the whole pulley deal

VortexBlueTSX

Blowing up my own thread again hahahaha, just ordered the Throttle Body Spacer and Two mufflers! Can't wait to get everything in an installed. Will be taking pictures with a good camera (not the cellphone like usual) hopefully soon!

HondoGermany

Great choice on buying the TBS. What mufflers do you get?

KillerG

HondoGermany

Ah, I forgot this word: BITCH!
Thank you Killer, always try to learn your language perfect

ed_423

^ LOL, best way to learn a new language is to learn the bad words first

VortexBlueTSX

Agreed on the language haha well i was looking at skunk2 or tanabe but they are 150-160 a muffler so i did some research on the civic forums and with other cars and they said that they really really liked the Megan racing N1 muffler, it was relatively quiet looked good and was stainless steel and good quality, and most importantly it didnt have that raspy noise....So i bought two of those, bitches

ed_423

can't wait to see how it sounds!

Professor

hear how it sounds

PyroDave

smell how it sounds

Mr. NC

taste how it sounds

VortexBlueTSX

I will do all those things, and try to convey it to you guys as best as i can hahaha

VortexBlueTSX

With 2012 coming along so does me paying off the beast, ya i call it a beast, and im looking to do something bigger and better haha. My dad and I have been looking into some turbos and talking to shops.....I am hopefully in the summer going to be doing either a rotrex supercharger, or a RDX turbo....I would prefer the turbo, but depending on pricing we will see....pictures of the mufflers and TBS when they come in

tobwac

sounds like a busy 2012

VortexBlueTSX

Yessir it is! Starting off 2012 with the P2R TBS





No blue red will due! Installing tomorrow

PyroDave

POWDERCOAT IT VORTEX! cmon bro, can't have red inside...

VortexBlueTSX

Shit...your so right hahaha just discovered a local shop that paint matches spray cans to whatever color....so im going there haha

PyroDave

you cant just spray over the red i think. you gotta strip off the red, then apply the blue. and you need some engine paint or something, cause regular paint will melt(i think, ask someone who actually knows what they are talking about, not me) hahaha VBP <3

ed_423

yeah i'd get some high heat paint just to be safe bro

VortexBlueTSX

Agreed, Ill let you know when i end up doing that...i installed it just so i could see how it is and i love the difference would recommend it to all! Got a lot busier with winter break cause im working at the pizza place full time now, waiting and waiting and waiting for those mufflers to come in

VortexBlueTSX

Not its not a picture of my mufflers, sadly those still havent come in yet, blaming that on the holidays and shit....but i ordered some LEDs 45 SMD and im really happy! They are bright, and white!

VortexBlueTSX

FINALLY CAME IN!!! Sorry for the shitty iphone pics, but you get the idea, hopefully i can install them this weekend

VortexBlueTSX

and yes...that is a blue iphone case that matches my car....hahahah

MoaarLow

Exhaust look great. Make a video as soon as everythings together!
& could you provide a link for the reverse? Ive found 27 and 68. Heard the 68smd is too long. 60x20mm ?

ed_423

nice cans

custom vortext blue powdercoated iphone case?! haha

VortexBlueTSX

Hey moarlow I got these http://www.autogoody.com/servlet/the...bs-BLUE/Detail ....but if i was to do it all over again, i probly wouldve gotten these http://www.ebay.com/itm/Super-Bright...sories&vxp=mtr ....probly will eventually A lot brighter then the ones i have....dont get me wrong they are bright, but not the brightest in the daylight

VortexBlueTSX

Hahah thanks cant wait to put them on! hahaha and ya! its almost a perfect match, i like VBP what can i say

tobwac

really hoping this is gonna sound sick lol

VortexBlueTSX

You and me both hahaha

MoaarLow

SHEESH! those Tiny bulbs light up like that? Thats insane, looks like an HID kit in them things. But you gotta pay to play. Thats a great investment to see behind you, But i think it may be too bright for the reverse camera. ?

VortexBlueTSX

I feel like if anything it would help you see way better, make it like daylight....idk
