Pics of my puddle lights...
A small update...So here are 3 shots of my Type-s with puddle lights. ua6spec's ride and pics gave me the inspiration. I do apologize for the grainy pics, I suck at photography, and the lighting didn't help.
Someone, please volunteer to do my photoshoots!

Hey ballin,
Thanks for the compliment! Yes, I actually like the puddle lights very much. They're not too ricey, but they make the car stand out. From what I can gather, the install really isn't too difficult at all. Of course I had a professional do it, and it took him 2.5 hours. All he did was wire the puddle lights to the car's dome lights. He charged me $100 labor for the job. Let me know if there is anything more specific I can help you with!

Appreciate it!
They're not ricey at all, well unless they were like neon green or something but I love em! 100 for labor is good deal How much in parts was it? Really considering doing these sometime later in the spring

wanted to take mine off, bought mine used it had already dug into the bumper, so until I get that fixed i'll cover it with my A-Spec lip matching OU tag.. :P
oh and NBP +1 more

what company makes these lights?? ive never seen them anywhere but on ua6spec's car.. i dont like them too much (but i dont hate them)
i think they would look real nice and clean if you matched them to your rear liscene plate LEDs and interior LED's.. if they all have the same color/tint/hue it would probably look bad ass when you open your door

Couple update pics, enjoy!:
Custom NBP colormatched Engine Bay Shrouds (pics taken at night, so they're not as clear as they could be during the day):
P2R TB Spacer (Thanks to my boy Teddy [kamuiangl]):
Got my interior bulbs changed out to white led's, but I didn't take any pics of that. But this is where I'm at so far. I'll keep you all posted as the progression continues...

I love the look of the NBP engine cover, especially with the chrome acura badge.
as for the next mod, how about a colour-matched grille? JJaber06 did that and it looks amazing.

Here It Is!! 'Dem Works for ya!
Here's some shots of my new shoes close up:
Caliper clearance was a NON-issue. This is with a +40 offset. I would have cleared the Brembos with a +45-47 offset easy:
Some full-view shots:
My stock tips...they're polished up!:
Here's the front. Anyone notice a difference?:
And finally, a couple shots of my NBP colormatched engine bay:
Alright fellas...let me know what you think! I am absolutely UNofficially done modding . If you all can think of anything else there is to be done, chime in also!
Thanks,
Scott
