I did them earlier today, I thought they would change the color of the light emitted a little more, but in the daytime the blue lens looks really nice. Kinda like the blue tint on benz windows.

Ha Ha Ha, my girl Hates the tow hook also! It's so funny, I love it. It's supposed to give it a more race inspired look. kinda like this one.

And yes, it comes with every TL you just have to pry out the cap with a flat head screwdriver. I fucking love the look, dude you have to have vision. I know how my car is going to look and the tow hook will fit in perfect with my rims and bodykit and cf hood that are coming in the near future. lol
And you have to understand, I see at least 5 WDP TL's just like mine everyday. And it's always some 60 year old white guy driving, I want my WDP TL to stand out even before my mod's are all complete. You know, and I think my tow hook works at doing that just a little.
Oh yea, and no the lenses don't really change the color of the light. You have to get your hid's color modded for that, and I was going to clear out the lenses but my honda guy said it was too risky, just incase I ever needed to have something factory done to them the dealer would'nt do it if the yellow lenses were out. So I may buy a second set and have the lens taken out of that set.

WOW- my BAD! :surrender I remember seeing that piece when I got my jack out to try and raise the left front tire. Could not figure what the hell it was for.
My apologies for a noob moment!
I like the red ones you see on the import drag cars.
And my wife would just
if I put that on my car. But thankfully the RJ kit has no access hole for it.

It's a mugen experienced driver badge. It's a reflector like a lisence plate and it stays orange and yellow.

SweetJazz: If the tow hook is on there tight enough to pull the car, how do you think you can just stumble upon a tl with one and take it off? (You cant, unless you walk around with a wrench or screwdriver with you all the time) And that would be weird.
Simonsez: It does'nt stick out far enough to protect from damage, and it's on the side.

1. Mugen
Japanesse aftermarket manufacturer who specializes in Hondas. Also races modified NSXs in the Japaneese Grand Touring Car series.
2.
Japanese Domestic Market (JDM)
Usually used for cars or car parts that have been imported from Japan.
Check out the JDM SR20DET engine I got for my 240sx!
I.E. Both are basically the same when you talk about automotive products based from Japan. Mugen is just more of a brand so I don't feel that I was incorrect in calling the badges mugen. It was just a quick way to answer dudes question.
AND THEIR NOT FOR DRIVERS ABOVE 60
, This particular badge is meant to symbolize the higher level of experience the driver posseses. Think of it as elder driver, not elderly. That's why when people see it they automatically know I race and try to race me, They don't think I'm over 60.
And you said, "I think it looks weak as hell if you ask me" but just remember... No one asked you.
P.s. what's the difference between a wanna be jdm enthusiest and an actual jdm enthusiest? Because your implying that because I have that badge I'm a wanna be and your not. When I'm just appreciating the culture and automotive technology just like everyone else.

new driver badges are also required by law in japan for new drivers w/ less than 1 year experience driving.

you are 25 years old. how can you claim you are an elder driver or have any skill? do you drive professionally full time? do you get paid to drive heavily sponsored cars? if not, then you aren't very skilled my friend. you might be skilled to drive from point A to point B but that's it. if you drive around in japan w/ that badge on i guarantee that you will get a fat ticket and you will quickly take it off. they are required by law over there to have them on their car for those purposes i stated in my last post.

Kid, you need to lighten up. I bought that badge so nuckleheads like you would see it and want to challenge me on the road. It's all in good fun. And like I said, the mugen and jdm comment was briefly to explain what the badges were about, thanks for clearing that up. It's not that serious and like I stated above to each his own I don't have to explain anything to anyone and this is America so I won't get a ticket for my badge. So please Lay off the coffee or get some ass or something sheesh!

Aznbenz, there is a difference between racing and driving above the speed limit. A BIG difference.
Anyways, to stay on topic, although I do have my opinions on your JDM badge thing, I do like the blue tint, it looks pretty good in the daytime actually.
I wish there was a way to tint windows that light blue like on Mercedes. I looked it up and it seems that is a patented process in which the glass is made, and not something that we can just apply. I think it would be hot on certain colors (WDP and SSM come to mind).
It'd be especially good because certain states have (lame) restrictions on window tint, and the blue would be a nice alternative to 50% (or 35 here in MS).
