Question on the taillamps...

Terse... nice pics. I have an 04 nbp with navi and was wondering about the chevrons of yellow in your pictures of the back end of you ride. Could you advise if Acura has
integrated an amber turn signal feature into the new 05 tail lamp assembly, or is the
colouring just a trick of the lighting. I would like to know as I think an amber dedicated turn signal indicator would be a welcome improvement.

Congrats! See, I told you it would take 10 days for delivery. I believe it would look better without the temporary front plates, until your CA plates arrive. Also, you can remove the little red sticker from the windshield on the driver's side. The prep guy missed that.

carputer is better than stock navi and more. the total cost can come down more if not using the laptop but use a shuttle xpc in the trunk. (by the way, moahdib use an old pIII laptop, it should cost extemely cheap by now, most of the laptop now are P4 or pentium-M processor. )

Congratulations! Yeah I couldn't bring myself to spend another $2500 on Navi either. Instead I'm going to put that money on some lightweight rims, ahem!
