I just bought another set of these modules in yellow.
I tested them out and they're actually NOT yellow, they're more toward amber color.

For those who wanted to order yellow, please be advised.

Will post pictures soon.

clement, i've updated my license plate location again using my OEM bracket.
i'll post picture of the it later, no more 3M tape method.

now i wanna see if i can upgrade my brake caliper to the OEM brembo ones from 6MT.

here're some pictures of the spacing i have from my 5AT caliper to my rim.




i basically have 0.5" gap there, is that enough space to fit in the brembo ones??

i think ur gona need more then .5 ..possibly need some kind of spacer if those rims dont stick out too much, and also may need to roll the fenders so you dont rub. i been thinking of doing the same with the 6mt brembo's

Hey Sam,

I highly doubt it will fit because you are running 30mm offset. If your rims were 40mm then it will probably fit. Do you have a set of OEM Brembo's?

I like your progression of the ride. Being named "lights" as a screen name, I'm surprised you haven't done the accord fog mod yet.
