LMAO, so he's okay with the amber for you but not for me!
Seriously though, I agree, the yellow wasn't my thing either. I'm over that look.

Jeremy, if you read my comment it says "why are you guys ruining the setup which everyone is approving?"

for Meko, the setup he has in the avi, really looks good....for you, the white setup which you had was drool worthy (remember that snake eyes pic that you took?)....


and in all honesty, i am just a 3rd party who is giving out my opinion....in the end its your car and your dime....please do not think I have some "conspiracy theory going on just because you commented on my headlights"....aint nobody got time fo dat

Oups just saw this page J.

Haha dude it's easy to swap the lights and J needs an excuse to get out there and try the new camera

and I am wondering how 2 orange + white inspire will looks on black TL








I love the output I got for the interior lights. Guess it was 15%tint on the dome covers with 15leds... perfect for my taste as it looks right now

dammit....@ the double post...

Jeremy....It was all in good intention bud until you started blaming me for retaliation and stuff....

also mentioned above that both (you and Meko) are running a setup which honestly flows soooo well with the car....Meko's setup had gotten many to switch back to Amber (including you)....so why is he changing the setup???

for you, I did mentioned how good the car looks and your photography....either the amber indicators should have been brighter (like the tritons or like your switchbacks) which would have looked awesome or the white you had going looked splendid....

and please dont tell me you were offended by "fool" LOL....i thought we were past that....specially after the comments you have been making on my thread

Anil, I know what you said, brah...I was just kidding about retaliation. I was being funny, as usual. Trust me, based on our cars that we have different directions and tastes and that's what's awesome. Keeps it interesting.

I was just bored of the all white...plus, like I mentioned, the 6K white I had doesn't match my super expensive CBI bulbs now which are a crisp white. Anyway...trust me, that shot with the yellow and yellow hid was gross...I agree, I knew as soon as I popped it in I had taken a step back. BUT, I will promise you that I have a feeling you'll dig the amber snake eyes and/or amber/white/amber and white in fogs.

OEM on roids!

true....

but then again I was not aiming for right....its YOUR car...you know whats right for YOUR car....I was just criticizing....and it might have seemed strong only because, recently (after the wing) your car has been on point and not given anyone any chance or constructive criticism

I had to do a double take, thought it was a j series motor

Anil, . I'll take that as a compliment AND a challenge to have you love it again WITH amber. Like I said, I can convince myself this way or that, at the end of the day, you already KNOW I'll end up being honest with whatever looks awesome and I'm actually happy with.

Having said that, in the lower fogs, I popped in some ebay H11's on Saturday morning that match the CBI white very well. Drove around the block Saturday night and the colors match beautifully at night too. That said, I'm VERY happy with that look and will go from there.

Then I guess it's the new camera shots that makes me excited haha

I couldn't believe my eyes today that how the rear RDX covers changed the side view of the car
Such an idiot waited for so long. Orange sparkles so beaaautful under the sunlight.
Will do the fronts this weekend

Anil what's the next performance mod that I should do?
J-pipe?

At FL, Austin said he didn't notice any extra performance after J-pipe but...it's Austin Driving his TL for couple miles a day

I guess I want J-pipe too, makes the exhaust sound pretty good. Wasn't waiting that much of difference

I know your comments about it

You don't have any stages on the exhaust right Steven?
Adam and Austin both has Stage III, Adam with stock, Austin with RV6 J-pipe, and Austin's exhaust was way louder than Adam's

Meko, your next mod should be Type S cams and upgraded heads

am serious, but the jpipe is just as good...from different sources you hear different things, a lot of folks went back to OEM jpipe since they ACTUALLY lost power on the dyno from the jpipes....

not sure what their mods were but well....I think am pretty done with the intake/exhaust setup....its just time for head work for me

Cams and heads? I have no clue though. Is there a thread about it?
When we go into improving those, don't we also need better flow for the exhaust to throw all that air out?

Are you serious... I did't see anything about loosing power with J-Pipe
Well, but no one sells theirs on BM
Has anyone said that about RV6? If you ask me the design on RV6 (by the look) makes the most sense to me when compared to other J-Pipes. (Fluid dynamics class )

Or just be happy with the output with the bolt ons. Or even stock.
Anil, you haven't seen this kid drive. You want his car as slow as possible for the safety of everyone on the street, and sidewalk, and living in a house that has anything than a quarter mile driveway.
