You, sir, have excellent tastes in mods. Inspired me to mod my newly purchased 07' CBP Type-S!

Thank you CBP is an awesome color! Good luck with the modding. If you plan on doing the A-Spec kit you're going to have to buy different color side skirts and have them painted CBP, not a huge deal, but just cost a bit more money in the end.

Thanks Eric! I'm coming close to and end with the modding. There really isn't too much more I can really think of at the moment. I still would like to get my remote start/alarm done, maybe finish off the engine bay with a RV6 strut bar, other than that, I'm finding it harder and harder to think of things to do.

Thank you! It will be tough with the rims just sitting around not to use them, but I love the look of the ES1's too much to start using the 527's just yet. But hopefully I'll have some better pics of them up soon.

Well the wife will be happy hear that the mods are coming to an end, but even she says "there will always be something."

I kind of agree though, I just haven't thought of what that something is yet.

Honestly, she really isn't too bad about complaining. She does here and there, but overall she's not that bad. I think I've gotten away with a ton since I've had the car.

Very true. Down the line if I could find a good deal on a kit and a legit installer that wouldn't crazy in price I would probably highly consider it. It would be awesome to drive around without UCA clunk and change height at the drop of a dime.

Need more Machine/Ebelp sightings!

The leaves have to be starting to change, hence more photos needed!

I started the Police academy in August so a lot of my time is being dedicated to that. Hence the ugly ass shaved head pics in J's thread. Can't wait for that to grow back when I'm done.

Awesome pic John, thanks for posting taking it and posting!

Man it's been a while since I posted some pics or have really been on here in general. The police academy really occupies a lot of my time. Anyway, winter season is coming up pretty soon so I put the ES1's away and brought out the winter wheels and decided to take some pics.

I would also like to thank one Mr. Rockstar for making my new taillights for me. They came out fantastic and I love him. I mean I love them, yeah I love them. :wink:

Since I have acquired a new set of tails I am currently selling my other custom tails which are found in the Black Market or by clicking the link here. https://acurazine.com/forums/car-parts-sale-361/custom-3g-taillights-899587/


On to the pics!












And my favorite pic of the bunch!
