New To Board, with a brand new 2008 WDP!! All thanks to you guy

Hello all
I would like to thank you all for my new purchase. I have been reading this forum for a long time, and with all the good advise i made my choice and bought my wdp.
I am totaly in love with this car!
My other option was the lexus IS, but its a bit to small for me.
I find myself washing it and brushing off specks of dust that may land on it all the time. Cant wait to break it in and see how much kick it really has.
Anways i have a few questions for you guys.

What is this sunglass holder they speak of, is it a holder like the ones that comes with regular glass(the clam thing) or is the plastic cube in the side door pocket.
i cant find any pics of what it looks like, i am not happy with my dealers and honda in general right now, and worried they may have jipped me once again.
Well i had so many questions but cant seem to remember any right now.
Hope this picture links works
Thanks again

The mod bug is killing me!! i cant wait to do something to it.
i dont think i am allowed to, because i financed.
But simple rims and a nice 30% tint would be good for a start, and then replace all the light inside with bright leds.

Does anyone have a pic of their sunglasses holder?

After getting your TL, browse this board for a few hours, let alone a few days. And you will be wanting to do everything humanly possible. And it will put a burning hole in your pocket from the amount of spending haha.

sunglasses holder is in the pocket in your door, next to your driver's seat. your sunglasses will sit vertically in it.

You mean you lease the car right? You finance it you still own the vehicle unless you can't make the payments and they take the car back. God forbid that happens.
Well you certainly picked the right color choice. WDP FTW!

Hmm, I didn't even know there was a sunglasses holder on the door side pocket...Time to investigate.

I don’t like that, i was reading the manual and checking the reviews and they had that as one of the features, thought it would be something nicer than a square box, very disappointed

Sweet WDP......Welcome to Team WDP and Acurazine!! And yes, the sunglass holder is in the door pocket....one on each side. Wish it was up in the ceiling console like my old TSX was.

Thanks for the welcome!!
Now its time for some modding, does anyone know where i can get some A-Spec Gunmetal 18x8.5" other than the dealer. The price in Canada is rediculous.

This guys car is so perfect https://acurazine.com/forums/acurazine-clubs-meets-15/nova-md-kiss-dragon-meet-07-07-a-181848/
