Your car has been one of my favorites, ever since I rolled up with the caravan to Acurafest last year. Your mods look factory and are subtle, but they are extremely precise and separate your car from the rest of the WDP's. As always, your car is looking great, we need to do another shoot sometime.
BTW, I am getting a mod soon that I think you will be very interested in, I will be in contact with you about it soon...

subtle, not too flashy but clean is what i aspire my mods to be. OEM but way beyond
yeah, we'll have to get some heads together for another shoot. curious about this new mod of yours let me know.

jptl- your car is an inspiration to all. I've wondered for a while, how much weight to you estimate has been added to your car with the mods? I'm the performance mods more than make up for it though.

And you're right the performance mods make up any weight difference easy. This thing gets up and goes!

RESURRECTION!!!
Thanks for the few last positive comments guys appreciated
We're having a meet here in SoCal this weekend so I decided to do another mod on the S. What I did was the reverse HID mod with tailgater switch. 6000k h3 hid kit. I also have an auto so I needed the delay pulse timer to delay the reverse signal by a few seconds as I shift from Park-reverse-N-drive. Delaying the signal will prevent the hid kit from igniting the bulbs when sensing the reverse signal if I were to just put it on drive. This would save my bulbs and ballasts from unnessasary on and off wear and tear. Here are some pics of the switch and timer. I'll take some night shots and maybe a video later tonight when it gets darker
Momentary switch push "on" release "off"
I installed it just at arms reach on the lower right side of the plastic panel on the driver seat.
Really easy to reach and not very noticeable. If you're not looking for it you won't notice it.
DEI528T in this position you'll have a 2 second delay when reverse signal is sensed.
My scanner is broke so this pic of a rough diagram will have to do. Basically used the pulse timer to activate a relay sending power to the HID's
Night pics soon to come, that is all! Happy modding

Lol! Thanks Roger.
I have it and the audio award in my entertainment center cabinet behind some
glass with a mini spotlight under them. Looks
soo cool.
However there are no guarantees. And I'm not done yet.
gotta raise the bar a bit more!
I've been getting bored and thought up a few more mods for the ride. Hopefully I'll have them done by 10/9/10

Yeah, that's a pic of my car on their site. I never gave nor did they ask permission to use it. Whatever, I don't mind. I do have a sarona roof spoiler. The front and rear spoilers are A-Spec Acura OEM parts. I did modify the front spoiler, 07-08 base to fit the type-s bumper. That advertisement is funny! I'd like to see their version of those parts. Order it! Lol!
