Well, between Betty, my buddy Tyler and Eric (buddy that works at Acura) telling me that I'm a moron for having baller wheels and then being a cheap fk about buying the correct center caps for it. LOL.
I was okay with the Acura centers, but yesterday, when installing and the unevenness of the caps and the messy silicone I was like, fk this, I'm getting them.

Hmmm...posted fine in another forum. I wonder if it's AZ that's messing up the link?

confirmed...it's Acurazine that's having an issue with the link.
I would love to know what changed.
PS...I'm drunk. I'm going home, per Justin.

The rims look amazing man! I can't imagine what else could possibly be done to make your car look better. I'm sure you'll a way though knowing you. Absolutely beautiful TL!
Thanks for the headlight help also. I got everything ready to finally do it. Really hope I can finally find sometime to do it this week.

At least you can just drive and enjoy it, not have to listen to rubbing and grinding tires and hitting your shock tower and all that other fun stuff!
Justin, dude, if you've not tried it, about 1/2 of pomegranate juice, 6 ounces vodka and top off the 1 liter water bottle with vodka. Trust me, you will be on your knees (again) and you WILL see Jesus (guy that cuts my grass).
Yay, dude, NOBODY remembers that cartoon! It was one of my favorites!
1. Thank you, Steven Thelonious Bell
2. Again, thank you.
3. Of course I am. Wait, is it Saturday today?
I don't know about that, but I'll take your word for it.
Justin, thank you, sir! PS, LOVING that engine damper, buddy...my oem one doesn't rebound back at all when you compress it. I noticed a much more solid feel when shifting in the lower gears.
He is! But not of me!
Why thank you, sir Chris. Any word on when our suits will be out of the dry cleaners?
NO, that'll make it look like I spent too much money on my car. I don't have a big enough sack to spend that kinda cash for marginal return on investment. Car is fast enough!
Manny Fresh...thank you, sir! I appreciate it and I agree. I think it's AZ though...it BETTER NOT be FLickr since I'm a paying customer for them.
and lastly, here's how the Samsung Galaxy S4 mimics HDR shots...not too shabby, I must say.
I kicked up the front a couple of spins on the coils...and left the back the way it's been. Exactly match on where the fender sits on the side of the tire F and R. I was rubbing so much on the front I was eating up the tab that the screw that holds the bumper to fender. Not willing to drop back my camber either. Also, added 5MM spacer on rear. So I'm at +29/+24 F/R 18 x 9 with a 225 and still at -.5/-1 F/R Camber. I did relax bushings and adjust height so I'll be hitting an alignment some time soon.

I do enjoy being able to drive half asleep in the morning and not have to drive like a nervous wreck looking for potholes. If I hit a bump in the road it doesnt even phase me lol.
Do you know about how low you are? like the drop from factory height?
