I don't see it on avn?
I've seen some other sites. one or two other online stores have good prices too but shipping was more.

So, does this mean you'll get 'em Meko?! DO EEEEET! $502 is amazing!

MEKO, writing from heaven here...


Josh/Jayvee is selling his Brakemotive setup. I don't think he ever installed and he just sold his car.

I bought one of those mityvac suction things to bleed the system and it's not hard for me to bleed my clutch and brake system in like a half hour. I stick with OEM fluid for mine.

Running stockies while slammed actually looks really damn good. There is a guy local to me that is riding around on Megan coils, slammed to the ground on stock wheels, actually looks REALLY good, the 5 spokes are teh secks.

Thanks J.

I agree with you Austin, but offset sucks.
I don't want to pay for spacers too...instead put the money on rims

Spacers are expensive than what I thought

Mine was most likely a very rare occasion, I haven't seen many people post problems with the kit. Mine had a buildup of zinc on the rotor, causing vibrations, another front set cured the problem.

What deal via PM did he end up giving you?


I agree, the package deal was excellent...and actually, originally the deal was $140 shipped with pads, I think. and look up akata spacers on ebay...they are made by the makers of Vossen wheels and are good quality and half the price.

I guess this is why

1- Gray looks awesome with ASM
2- Not only the plastics on A-Specs, my grille and lower grilles are also gray. Whole car is silver/gray
3- Headlight is matte black (in a way looks gray plastic) <-+ Why I wanted it matte

I am ok with graphite on rims but they always com out too dark.
Rims on that si is perfect color, but can't find it

May be I could, and positive
but why waste money on paint, I am going to buy new rims










Which one for custom fog inside the lower grilles?
2nd one is for Golf

I like the 2nd one because of the angle it has will flow with the grille
Other one will stick out, might look nice but not sure

When I take the bumper out for CAI
I will tap wire the current fogs to the parking light
I have leds in there anyway



When summer comes, will extend the current fog cable to the lower grille and add fog there.
Leaving the independent fog switch mod to the last

Accord fogs are what everyone does with, or Inspyre fogs.

I love the Inspyre fogs on base TL's, you should consider it!

Meko, it's interesting that in MA they spread sand on the roads when it snows. That last pic of your TL you posted reminded me of it. They don't do that in NY for some reason. I noticed the sand everywhere in MA when we were there a couple weekends ago.

I know dude but I don't like the plastic on Accord Fogs
Fender lines should come and continue on fog, 1st pic I posted might be meh but second is perfect.

I like the Inspire fogs, for that reason also + flows with the headlight as well, but it's not lens projector

and do you really think that silver reflector will look good with my blacked out headlight?

They look awesome indeed and stand out with dark color but don't think will with my ASM and blacked out headlights

Unless I paint the reflector to black



That looks awesome^
but dark color and stock headlights

No, Autozone has a stupid looking one, those are from ebay.

I just found this one.
Most of them have halos

No sand in NY ?
I didn't notice that
I guess they mix it with salt but I hate it it's so ugly and it's everywhere
and then they waste money on those trucks to clean it during spring time

oh and traction on the sand is awesome haha

J is having work done to his current setup, that's why it looks stock up front.

If anything, I would tint the lenses of the Inspyres with well...tint, or nightshade.

Black chrome MAY work....I'd be throwing HID's in there so...

Edit:

Look what I found

The Inspire fogs will give you more light output or wide spread than the accord fogs.
