try it....make sure you get the right color code for the wheels....else one wheel wont match the others....
i would still urge you to look into dark gunmetal....will set the stockies off....look at Tyler's car (he sold the SSM but check his thread out)
I will, and might only do the f.ed up one. Front left at least
Ok last confirm
I am buying 225
and these for dad

Which Tyler? Our tothe? I like his A-Spec rims color but those can sprays are way darker than his, which I don't like
FX has Bridgestone as stock but it's $1,020, screw that
Bridgestone Dueler is top rated for FX so buying it.
I wanted to try Hankook but it comes second
and Hankook is 420, Bridgestone is 600 (threadwear)
Guessing Hankook might be more soft which my dad likes but he said get Bridgestone

i took that one apart but went hulk on it by accident... i ended up buying a set of blacked out/cleared lights.. I need to update my progress thread with new pictures... waiting to move my tires from the RPF1 to my stocks then will update... I also have not done anything in awhile and wont until August... need to find time!!!
Haha I actually do... until I feel like cop might stop me
Reason I bought halogens for upper fog is so I could drive without bi-xenons
That's going to look sexy

Never thought of changing sidemarkers because rear matches tails, front matches parking bulbs
Yeah they are inspire
Thanks
I was thinking only front... you changed both?
Anil just sent me this link

can you "return" them?
the reason I say is that is a hella good deal....and the rims are powder coated....
you can sell your rims for 300-400 bucks....so powder coated rims + tires for $200-300....fuq YEAH !!!

Just noticed that, da hell is medium gray, looks ugly anyways will call Tirerack tomorrow and see
Looks like they do accept return but will ask about shipping cost.
Paid $50 + if I have to pay $50 again to return... dunno
Edit:

I got the Nokya bulbs 
I was expecting them to be way more blue, but looks really whiteishhhh and matched the fogs
But Houston we have a problem
Tapping the upper fogs doesn't take both of the halogens at the same time
Blows the fuse
I am gonna f up the car one day but when hahah
Have to install the harness that came with inspire but mehhhh f it
So will be running oranges again but left one halogen on, will see how it looks during the day.






Jeremy saw the new shots bro
So Yellow Nokya on upper fogs and 3k HID for inspires?
Guess haven't received the ebay ones yet?

Funny, you're little by little going in the direction I was in, and I'm moving to the direction you were in.
Amber is making it's way back.
Okay, your issue is the turn signal bulb circuit isn't intended for higher voltage tied into it. And take a gander, are those Nokya's 35 watt? NOOOOO...are they 55 watt? NOOOOOPPPEEEE....
They're MOTHERFKN 80 WATT BULBS!
Don't run a bigger fuse, you might melt the bulb socket or wiring.
In addition, I DESPISE how your reflector will now look blue during the day when the light is off.
Sorry Meeks...not into it.

What Jeremy said about the fuse....never up the AMP on them...NEVERRR !!! yes am yelling !!!
I like the white better....but Meko, I have some nice white LED bulbs sitting in my garage....let me know if you want em, will ship it off to ya....
this way if you are going for white, you wont have to upp the fuse, nor will you burn any sockets/wires by pumping tons of amp to that MASSIVE 80amp bulb and as Jeremy mentioned you wont have that bluish hue....
PS: I like the amber reflectors better but I LOVE the white upper fogs....

Hahahaha ummm true didn't give attention to watt 
Nope, no way of using bigger fuse
And yes I hate that blue reflection of the bulb
Thanks Anil... do you know if those white leds are bright enough to be notice during day? At least something more than my orange ones
I am wondering how J's orange leds will come out..
I want white upper fog because I will try something for the Inspaaayaaa

OK positive, from now on only thing I am using to clean the rims is that barkeeper 
Cleaned the rears + installed the RDX covers (rear)
I didn't paint anything though.
Will paint the fronts since they are friggen bigger than covers





Jeremy, you have paint the HID bezel to orange now
Then brembos




CLEAAAAN

Will plastidip the Acura eblem on the rims


Tyler, I didn't lower the car... well got 2 more threads at the rear
because after seeing the sidewall difference between stock tires and 225/40, scared that car is going to be too low
Bish I got 17" there, not 18"
Uuu I like this one too
but front rims and car is

Yeah, man...that's a GREAT idea! Swap over to the burnt orange, then I can name my first kid Meko...maybe get a dolphin tattoo with your name on it on the small of my back, order whatever you order at the restaurant and go see chick flicks together. It's going to be great, man!
:ghey:
We'll see, I'm sure my LED's won't be the BRIGHTEST, but I think the Amber is going to look amazing for the look I got going right now...those ebay 5K bulbs I popped in today match pretty much PERFECTLY. So now, down the block I have MAJOR bright perfect white. I love it.
