Black pedals.....

 

Nice work! I bought the black pedals and realized the dead pedal was smaller than the stock one, wasn't going to fly with me. I think these are actually for a TSX.

It looks like you actually removed your stock dead pedal though, nice

 

Damn, looking at those A-spec wheels reminds me how much I love the 8.5" A-specs

Traded my last set for some GT-S', I guess time to go on a hunt again to find me another set.

 

I like em !
Thank you ! Yeah I did remove the stock dead pedal. You're probably right tho maybe they do belong to the tsx. They don't look bad tho!
Lol thanks man quite the compliment from the man in charge of my headlights ! I woulda expected you to b lured to the aspecs not from my pictures but pics from someone like Tyler or KJ. I guess I did a good job too

Almost done with my headlights ?

 

Dude, I like the black pedals. Believe it or not, I've never seen them before.

 

Really ? Don't just say that to make me feel better lol jk I believe you. I like how the engraving stands out off the black !

 

New mods are looking good man. I've never seen the black pedals either.

Your pics make me realize I really need to get my RDX covers on my rear calipers. I've had them since before the price hike, and I've just never gotten around to mounting them. I'm a little uneasy about the RTV as well, but I'm sure it'll be fine if I do it right. I'll probably do 'em the same time I paint my brembos this summer.

 

Thanks. I wish I woulda got em before the price jumped too but I do like them.

When I already had my car jacked up and wheels off and everything I opened up the RTV I bought and realized it was copper color! So I had to use that and now it is visible on the top and bottom of the calipers. But yeah especially on the rear calipers I was holding them up to the glue and they kept sliding off so I held my hand there for like 10 minutes and slowly let go and it stayed. That's why I'm worried about how secure they are on my car at least. Maybe I didn't bend the tabs right.

Anyone know if I can put black RTV over the copper to make the color blend?

 

I'm serious! Very fresh looking.

 

holy crap your car is looking amazing! Can't wait to see what else you got planned for it.

 

Thank you! Same for yours! Hope you get your progress thread goin too!

 

They don't look bad at all! I like the black pedals too, that's why I got them

I think the silver brings a little too much attention to the floor.

 

 

DAMN!!! Those look sick !!!! Thanks so much dude.

 

 

mods looking good, man. Love the gunmetal aspecs. CBP FTW!

 

I second that
Thank you sir. Where's your progress thread pics?? Share your mods don't b selfish!:wink:

 

 

Ok so I finally got around to do doing the list of mods I had gathered.

Here is when I started to disassemble the bumper and headlights for the lip kit, new headlights and the jdm DRLS.

Special thanks to The Machine for making an excellent DIY.
So I thought that removing the headlights was gonna b quick but apparently you have to move stuff out of the way in order to get to some of the bolts that hold the headlights in like wiper fluid reservoir and intake mainly due to the ballasts plates on both headlights. But after much finagling I got them out.

Then I started on the lip kit and this was much simpler than I thought.


The rear gave me more problems than the front and I was worried it didn't look right but once everything was said and done it looked perfect.

While I had my bumper off curiosity got the best of me and I had to delete my intake resonator. I am so glad I did it! And excuse my black electrical tape that is probably pointless but I'll figure out a better way to secure that pipe. Any one know how? And does anyone know how to take that stupid part of the intake out that is ziptied right below it ? The bolt that holds it is facing up and I can't get in there cuz the frame is in the way I think.

Headlights in

And once everything is said and done it looks like this



So happy with the lip kit. Now i just need the sides !

So I am having a bit of a problem now after installing the LED turn bulbs for the front and rear. When I finished everything up I went a couple days without installing the .24 ohm resistor. And as expected I had hyper flash with no headlights on and with the headlights on every single light on the car not including the drls was illuminated. Even the mirror leds. Everything was on constantly. Just solid on. And I couldn't use my turn signals either. If I were to try using the turn signals with the headlights on nothing would happen at all. So today I installed the resistor on the relay and my hyper flash went away! Thank you Project04TL for the resistor. But now I still have the same problem with the headlights being on and not being able to use my signals. All lights are on !

And.... my drls stopped working. The wire that runs across the bumper got close to the engine and it started to melt the black insulation. Idk if the resistors are supposed to get very hot but they are pretty damn hot to the touch. Could it b the melted wire? Please help! And sorry for all the iphone pics but I'll get a photo shoot soon.

 

sweet ride!!

 

Good job

 

Well done, Ricky!

 

looks good, man!

 

Thanks!

More pics comin tonight !

 

Got around to taking some pics these past few days. Some are iphone 5 pics but they aren't too bad!
Thought I'd throw this pic in there cuz it looks pretty funny






JnC headlights installed

ZKW-Rs doin their thing at night.

iJDMtoy DRLS Xenon white installed. Thanks to the Machine for the awesome DIY
These pics are taken with a DSLR but I'm gonna have to use flickr or somethin other than photobucket cuz they don't look as great once they get transferred to the forum

 

 

Mods if you can add in the title please, "Updated Pics 4/5/2013"

Thanks!

 

Damn those headlights are sexy

Nicely done sir

 

Thanks

I really love the headlights ! I never got to see what they looked like with no kit installed so from one day to the next my car changed quick in the front end.

 

Just testing to see if this pic that is uploaded through flickr is any better than photoshop. Camera used is a 60D but they just don't look as good as they do on my computer

 

love the drls...still cant manage to get mine to work. giving up for a while. whats next for yours?

 

I like the new shots Ricky.

 

So do I! What DRLS do you have?

And I think the next mod for me is spacers 20mm rear and 15mm front

 

Thank you. Sorry for all the repeats on the pics but flickr does retain most of the quality.

 

No worries, Ricky. You might consider going to PhotoBucket.com. It's a free site and VERY easy.

 

I was actually using photobucket up until the last couple of posts I just put up. Photobucket was definitely quick and easy but they didn't turn out like they do when I use flickr.

 

I have ijdmtoy leds, just can't get the wiring right, apparently.

 

Hmm, that's weird it went along pretty easy for me. I followed The Machine's DIY and it worked right the first time.

Eventually I found out that they stopped working because the fuse on the harness had opened cuz the wire started to melt from touching the engine. Might b a long shot but maybe check that fuse.

 

The car looks great!

 

lovely pics
