thanks for everyone btw for answring my quesoitns and helping me out:thumbsup:

Look really nice bro~
Damn you should have done this long long time ago :D

haha when you covered up the license plate for the rear you forgot to do it for the front

^ haha yeah, i only took the pic to show the led light. i dindt reli care bout the licesen plate thing. oh wells :D

haha well what can i say, im a poor high school kid and didnt want to use parents' money for mods since they bought me the car already:D

^ wow been there now im a poor college student haha, i just do bi-anual mods when tax return comes around and invest in some of the more expensive mods with the cheaper mods around the year.

Great job :thumbsup:

You should have removed the resonator when you had the bumper removed, but you can do that when it's time for paintmatching the front grille.

haha yeah man. its so hard to find a job, especailly when im a high school kid. lol but thas ok. more years to come!

haha dude! i totally forgot about that. i had that in mind:ugh:
but i guess like u said. next time. summer hopefully:thumbsup:

Congratulations on your first mods! They came out really well, looking forward to more in the future.

I believe those mods ain't so expensive lol. Did you use the real HID fog or just bulbs?

hha ur right. its not, its one of those small mods that makes the car looks good :D
and its HID. i used the ddm hid kit. orginally was gonna use the hidextra kit, but oneside didnt work and my freind jsut so happen to have a new ddm kit in his trunk.

Got more balls then me I still haven't installed my intake cause i'm worrieda bout taking the front bumper off lol

Where did you pick up the LED's? Ebay? If so could you recommend the seller?

LOL nah tish, i only had the huevos cuz my friend knows how to do it:tomato:
and i got from ebay seller warden_jp2002. it was recommended in the interior led post and the bulbs fit greats. took like two weeeks to get the package though cuz they shipped from hongkong.

Congrats on your first mods! Heh I was in your shoes with my first cars, having the car stock for awhile and finally being able to get those same exact mods. Took me a year too lol. and those were essentially the first mods i did within the first two weeks I bought my car lol

awesome job man, LEDs are an awesome mod because they are very affordable yet make your car really stand out at night! For the foot well lights did you just change the bulb?

looks really nice, i jus changed all my interior lights to led's last week too.

i had two led strip down there, and just wired it into the oem footwell bulb (that dim one) so it turns on when i turn my headlights on

nice dude! your car's slowly but surely coming along very nicely.

^haah thanks mike, especially for all those help answierng my questions
here is two more pics from my iphone (i tried making one of them better by using a HDR app LOl) it is one of the reason why i love the drl, not when its on, but when it looks blue off.

Nice.

Guys, quick question about using SMD/LED on the dome light... do you leave the dome light on "turn on when door is open"? Coz from my understanding, when you close the door and lock it, the light will dim until it off (on the OEM).

I thought LED cant do this (will get short circuit easily if it keep on pushed to do this)

Any comments please? at the momment, I use a white 31mm bulb (non-SMD/LED) and the light just too dark...

Great job. When will I see this in person?

^haha maybe a meet? :D

now i am jsut dying to paintmatch my grill!

looking good ed

there's a meet in burbank this April 10 Saturday at Buffalo Wild Wings place

im going. let me know if you go

I have had the LED lights in my TSX for a couple of months now with no problems. I do have them on the auto dim.

yeah i saw it, but i can't go that day. it's my friend's birthday lol

I've had LED bulbs for over a year and I have no problems. And yes they dim nicely :thumbsup:

man dude , I was going through my trunk on wed ( its where I keep all my car parts sad right? ) and I noticed the damn headlight replacements I bought were 5000k .. You think thats a waste? Lol It's gonna look just like stock bleehh, I'm so sad what a waste of $10 how ever many months ago

^ no worry tish, u can always sell it :D

I have mine for a little over 10 months and am seriously considering these mods since they do not cost as much as other mods done by other members here. nice job...
