Bro you're gonna have to take things a little more lightly if you wanna survive on the internet. Every mod you do will have some people saying they're not into it.

He didn't even say he finds what you did hideous, he just said it's reminiscent of fast and furious era kind of mods, which it is..

Not a fan, but if you like it then that's all that matters.

From what I see:

Interior Dome Light LEDs + Door Light LED -> Most of us have these
License Plate LEDs -> Most of us have these
Footwell LEDs -> Many of us have these
LED strip on grill -> Not so many of us have these

I think it looks pretty good, but never been a fan of the LED strip on the grill.
I believe people don't like the way it looks because of how bright the footwell LEDs are, and the LED strip on the grill.

If the footwell LEDs were dialled down with a resistor, and the front LED strip removed, it'd look classy

Nice work

What about an underglow kit?

All jokes aside I prefer a more subtle look for lighting. Those lights are very intense, but as long as you like it it's all good.

Thanks, what exactly is a resistor though?

Not everyone is going to like your style. Take it for what it's worth, it's Acurazine

Google: Using a resistor to diminish the voltage of the current.

Keep it clean and invest wise, is the best thing I can tell you for future modifications.

I don't mind the interior LED's at all, but the front LED bar is just brutal man, you should've retro fitted in some accord or inspire foglights

I did too, but now its apart of my protein shake.
Protein shake with water

Basically adding a resistor will make it dimmer, depending on what resistor you get.

I know that feeling all too well buddy! All my protein shakes are mixed with water.

Not part of the diet anymore. Eating cereal plus UFC boxing = no good.

damn, that's impressive
Without BCAA I don't mind, but when I add BCAA it's very difficult to drink.
I only do it when I run out of milk though. Only almond milk for me

you know you're a student when...

on to the topic, a resistor is very simple to wire in if you end up wanting to dial down the brightness.
Cheap at radioshack, you can get a whole pack of of varying ohms of 100 for around $5.
Blue is one of those colours that look better when subtle.

Cat, welcome to AcuraZine.


Look, everyone takes a chance when posting pictures here. You've got to have a thick skin. Just laugh off the responses you don't feel are appropriate.


If someone gets REALLY out of hand, just let me know-I'll slap them around. As a matter of fact, I haven't gotten to do that in a LONG time.


Got any questions-send me a PM. We'll talk.....
