The gf can't drive a stick. And my argument is credible that I can't teach her on a car like this!

So if we go somewhere far, or most outings even - 06 Toyota Rav 4!!

^-- LOL, thought you would like that pic. I kept it up for a while then realized on the rare occasion that I actually have a date in the car it might not go over well. I changed it to Jessica Alba (the "drive me" one) for a while and now I'm sporting the UT one I posted in my thread.

Hallie Berry is rockin' I had really considered going that route as well when I did my initial navi hack but charisma beat her out.

Darksom, I got some sweet 19" gunmetal Volk GT-7s up for sale, and I'm local... Hell, and if you're looking at $1800 for A-specs, these are only a few hundred more...

LOL...$1800 is the price of A-specs (new), but that isn't what I'm looking to pay for some. They don't make gunmetal anymore. I would have to buy that used, and that or chrome in that type of wheel is what I would be looking for if I got it (but used). If I spend money for rims NOW, they will be for "just to make due" type rims. Nice, but not costly, like a used set of something for under $1K. Which, by the way, I have found gunmetals for in a-spec. Meanwhile, I am trying to save a few Gs for the rims/tires I really want. Mayas come to mind. Not sure on which ones, but I need a few Gs, so it would def not be practical in any sense to spend 2 Gs right now, then in about a year spend another 3 Gs. See what I mean? I even have some brand new OEM's in the storage that might get painted. Still weighing options right now. Thanks tho, they look cool.

If those were diamond black I'd be all over it. Not sure how that shade would look on a NBP. Guess I'll have to wait for the SF Challenges to be in my budget.

Ode to Stella...

NBP Love!

It’s true I love to wash my car

tho dust may come before I get too far

I hate to clean it and then it rains

but when the sun comes out I'll wash it again

I’m glad I bought it, oh yes indeed

so into your hate, no I won’t feed

There are other colors that you could choose

Silver, Anthracite, White, or even Kinetic Blue

However, it's not the same for various reasons

they're just flavors of the month, or even a season

NBP is about style, NBP is about class

NBP is sexy, and hell yeah it's got flash

It's about all those things, one or the other has got

yet Nighthawk Black Pearl is everything they are not

So please, let's be real, cuz one thing's for certain jack

your car may be nice…but never nice as BLACK!

As per your "words of wisdom", you need a black car to trash a thread! Your TL-S is Silver JD!

Thanks for the compliments...it's all good, stop over-reacting! You didn't even tell me if you like my poem and you know I wrote it for your ass (and jayok). You just need a hug! Tell the missus to hook you up for me pardnuh!

I think it would be good to paint your OEM set of wheels you have sitting around until you get the new wheels. And slam that shit.

If he has no chips in the front on the Aspec or bumper it isn't! (without clearbra, gotta get me that fast Ethan, in like 2 weeks!)

X, are those gold calipers in the front? From that angle they look gold!

Listen to Ethan. We are a team.

Oh...... if you mean in the MEETS thread that you are directed to by Ron A. in the last post, name lists are common. That's a different story. That's where such things belong.

Yes. They are gold calipers all the way around.

Did it myself with a spray can of metallic gold from Wally World (WalMart). That was three years ago. They still look good. That pic is about a month old.

Of course, my tires still have the rubber titties on them. Ethan is right. 8k miles.

No paint chips. No flaws anywhere. Yes, I have a 3M clear bra.

Check out the gold calipers and the gold and camel hand-painted pin-stripes.

That's all the mods Condoleeza needs. "You can't gild a lillie."

I'll never catch up to the rest of the NBP gang, but I'll enjoy trying! Besides, the "Gods" don't vote NBP...we're the thriller ya love to hate!
WTF....who need another "member highlight" thread that Ethan makes all about himself again anyway? Jesus. The dude is a joke!

Wow...2-0-0-0 posts!

**********POST # 2000!!!!************

Wow! I must be on here a lot! LOL! Well, it's a good place to be! Stella wouldn't have her grille if not for 3G!! Hell, I probably would not have Stella if I hadn't come on this forum!! Thanks AZ!!

I might've been over in the Infinity forum (G35) or BMW forum (335i), my other two choices before I bought this car. But they didn't come standard with enough options to be comparable to what I have now! Plus, those forums are wack! There is not enough creativity mod-wise, and those forums just look wack as far as the designing goes! Plus, there are no "less filling...taste great" type car color wars over there! Hahahahaha! (But if there were, the black color would win cuz it's the sexiest!)

Which brings me to the commemoration part of this post. The "darkside", or NBP, is the poster color for Acura's finest automobiles, bar none! I post many pics of Stella because she represents that, she is a true "blackura"!! (Blackura_NY taught me that...look at his sig) Sooo...it is only fitting that I put my stamp on that, in this my 2,000th post, by saying loud and clear, with a darkside-looking exposure, as befits me , that for now and forever more...



NBP...A WORLD APART FROM THE REST!!!
