I tried the plastidip on my car for the floating mirror effect, but since it's NBP, you can't really tell that they're floating. Is that normal!?!
Nichio, please don't take this the right way, but you got a sweet azz. Dirty and all!
I LOVE those last 2 shots you took.

I just picked up the TL-S off the show room floor less than 2 weeks prior..I parked in a Bank parking lot , surrounded by curbs with 1 free edge on my driver side two blocks away from any nightlife...just to come back and see my sideview mirror HANGING by the wire threads slamming against my door in the pouring rain...F*cking College Towns! Someone BEAR HUGGED my mirror off...no "smashed" damage to the mirror, just snapped right off the base...On the side that was curb parked.. WTFFF!! Who does that? Seriously...I see people do sh!t to cars all the time in revenge...let someone damage my car instead off having the balls to confront me...They're bound find their car at the bottom of the nearest Lake I assure you!
Needless to say, I actually took my own shirt off and MacGyver-ed it in a sling and closed it in the window so I could drive home without it thrashing on my car because I couldnt disconnect the wire harness..
Rockstar, I will never...ever leave them unfolded...ever again..
You now know why I have the habit #ruinedforlife

Damn... thats messed up. Ive been in that situation too, I got all my windows busted for no reason when i was in high shcool. but yeah the floating mirrors is a pretty cool touch... maybe now you can pull it off since you have to get a new mirror.

Well, that DEFINITELY explains it! I guess I'm spoiled by the fact that my car sleeps in a garage at home and in a locked lot at work. I wonder if you could retrofit the motors or mirrors off of one of the cars that automatically flip up when parked.
...and don't think you were going to get away with me not noticing the fact that your story included a girl taking her shirt off. I love your dedication...

I totally agree with you J on parking as close as you can to the curb....but you will be surprised with the kind of idiots around....

if am at walmart/target I park as far as i can and leave the mirrors unfolded....
better safe than sorry

Yeah, topless girl...and our "worry" was for the mirror!
C'mon, lady! I know you KNOW how guys operate!
I have to say, the fact that your car and keeping it looking good being a priority is not a huge turnoff for any of us either. Keep up the good work!
AND Happy Friday!

With a little creativity and some "dashboard hacking" that made me a little nervous to say the least, my boys Art & Dre did some justice to my EDFC relocation...It looks DAMN NEAR FACTORY!
I love it!

Alignment is on point!..Courtesy of Mr. Larry Cherry!!! Awesome Job... Drives like a dream, even better than the first day I drove it off the showroom floor!

Now onto Megan Carbon Fiber Roof Spoiler, Tinted Turn Signals, and Black Painted Side View Mirror Bases to give them a "floating" clean look!
to be continued...
p.s. she's still getting dropped more...just waiting for it to settle in so I can adjust the edfc for a nice and fender friendly tuck

EDFC = Electronic Damping Force Controller. The thing under the vent electronically controls the damping force
