Actually, I gave him praise in my post.
Bi doesn't come on the forums much, and usually just lurks if he does. Doubt he'll be chiming in.
I'll text him to see if he can post up any other pictures.
If it is him, I guarantee he'll be all over this site though

Oh yea TheChamps car is so much better than this awesome one of a kind TL?
SIKE
Maybe if everyone stopped criticizing the car the owner would speak up. The amount of criticism on this forum is disgusting. After the 5th post we understood the lip is not the best, the color combo is not the best. Why does EVERYONE have to say the same thing?
Btw it is nitrous's car. He always changes up his setups.

by the way if this is in fact, Nitrous's car, he would have no problem speaking up as he's been a long standing member of this community while you were still popping pimples on your funny face.

Well to all that has criticism to the car I'm sorry it isn't up to your liking but maybe someday u can puts money into your car but as for my car. I love my car and what I have done for it. I have gone thru the stock 05 front with the aspec lip already. Did the ken style front bumper and then did the 08 type s front with lip. So for the car as it sits now. I did the car the way I like it. And the red REAL TE37 not REPS it goes with the red RECARO SEATS IN THE CAR!! But hey HATERS WILL ALWAYS HATE!! But I'm okay with that. So please keep it coming!! Have a great day. And for those who do like the combo. Thanks for the compliments.

As long as you like it man
Without a doubt I love the color, I'm super jelly.
I'm not quite sure why you're getting an attitude toward people though. I know you feel like you have to defend your decisions but you really don't. It's your car, your time, and your money, there's no need to get all riled up about it. You can't make everyone happy

...someone needs to share MOAR pictures please!
you're welcome buddy...I tend to try and keep an open mind to things. I've found that most of the interwebz (and real life) consist of people that hate on ANYTHING different, a large majority of the population go along with that just to fit in and hate on it too. And a few will take a look and take a step back and appreciate the effort to be different and innovate.
I think we can all agree that a couple of mods for a car aren't tasteful aesthetically...but the color scheme is just fine. Doing big things, congrats.
Time for a color correct avatar, buddy!

Personally, I think you should have stuck with the Type S front lip and then painted the whole car that teal.
Also, the car in your AV is SSM but this car is obviously blue, do you have any more picture of when you got it painted or anything?

nitrous, love your car...always have...but i don't like the new paint job or the red wheels. just like some people might not like my new paint job. that doesn't make them "haters" (god i hate that word)...that just makes them people with an opinion.
and oh wow, thanks for the name drops...REAL TE37 wheels and matching RECARO seats!?!?!? omfg i take back what i said. your car is the dopest of the dope. the fact that you spent a ton of money on your wheels and seats doesn't make it any better than someone with reps and regular degular stock seats.

I think both cars look awesome...I don't know why everyone hates the combo. I think the red on teal looks fantastic and if you remove the fact that you KNOW it's not an OEM lip and look at it aesthetically, it brings the front down (which the aspec doesn't do well) and looks pretty good. The face air openings are what are throwing me off a bit...
at lease someone knows style, its good to do something different sometimes and not what everyone else is doin.
Overall, I'd rate it 10 for creativity and a 6 for execution.

Thanks, just keeping it simple for now, might switching wheels again in a few months.
That could absolutely be Nitrous' (Bi) ride...
He posted something on facebook yesterday about the V2Lab meet for 2013 coming up soon and I know him, he wouldn't show up looking the same, he's always looking to 1 up himself.
Honestly, as far as front lip, Tyler is right...but he's also had this monster huge bumper that replaced his oem one with aspec lip after highway damage, then he was too low and damaged/replaced that bumper, then he went oem again but for someone always looking for a new look for the front, this might be him.
I'll see it in person at some point...aggressive, fender work, and lowwww sounds about right.

I like the creativity but its not a very good color to match with red wheels. IF you wanted to do something complementary to color it would have been orange/bronze metalic wheels (although the color you picked wouldnt have helped the over all look of the car)
also that lexus is nice.

haha thanks man
Im sure he didnt expect ya'll to find out about the new setup with random pics from the internet. I think the wheels go perfect with the red seats and we all know those wheels wont last very long.

freedom of speech. this is an open, public forum. people can say whatever they want to about this TL. whether it's positive or negative, it doesn't matter. everyone is just giving their opinion, nothing wrong with that.
by the way if this is in fact, Nitrous's car, he would have no problem speaking up as he's been a long standing member of this community while you were still popping pimples on your funny face.

Glad to see the moderators are also liking your post. No wonder no one new joins up. This community is going downhill fast.
BTW....You should join the NY group again, lots of cool comments about your PURPLE wheels bro!

I'm not here to start any problems. I agree with you, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But it seems as if their is "cliques" formed on azine... to which each one has their own preference of modding their cars. Most of the criticism i see on something "different" from your group is negative. So, let me preach what we learned in pre-school if you don't have something nice to say then don't say it at all. Nobody, i mean NO ONE wants to read your narrow minded criticism on what you do or don't like. Quite frankly nobody gives a shit, if they did then you'll be asked "Hey sharksbreath, what do you like about my car?? please give me ur god given eyesight and tell me what i should or shouldn't do" nobody will ever ask you that.
and it's also funny that you get on 'aretardedorange' about his mommy and daddy buying him this or that.. "hand feeding him from a golden spoon" in other words.. but i've seen more maturity shown from him then you and your half-assed ignorant comments about him, which your whole azine "posse" seems to like.
i'll fall back into my hole now and disappear.

Omg can we not bring this horseshit into this thread?
OP doesn't even own the car, he posted and A LOT of people responded. Why is Aaron being singled out for posting his thoughts? Why not the other 40+ people who replied?

Ugh, this is totally and completely annoying now and shit like these last few posts is a great way to get a perfectly good thread locked up.
For Christ sake, people are allowed to have an opinions, whether they are good or bad. You are not going to please everyone when you mod your car, but if you don't want any positive or negative criticism then don't post a pic of your car in the first place. Not everyone may like what I have done with my car, and that is perfectly fine and the same case applies here. As long as nobody is personally attacking the owner himself like in the "Two Tone TL Done Right" thread, then what the hell does it matter is someone does or does not like the color or not? Or if multiple people have said the same thing, but in different words? It's their damn opinion and they are entitled to it!
It's the owner's car, money, time, and effort put into making it what it is and as long as he is happy with what he has created, that's all that matter anyway.

Whenever someone new posts up here asking a question you (underlying dreams) tell them to search and bitch at them for not searching. Great way to introduce new members. And once again awesome job from the moderators "moderating".
Thats where the posse comes into play. The moderators NOT NAMING ANY NAMES LOL, we got the kid austin who looks like hes 10 years old, sharksbreath, our great friend mccollins, etc, etc. Its not hard to see the posse.
And if you think its just me who thinks this forum is going down....look around. Its the same people posting, criticizing, rambling on. Anytime someone posts something new they are criticized. Isin't this a place where you share your cars and show off different mods? If everyone had the same mods these cars would be boring quick.
I am glad not to be part of the community anymore. I just come here to buy the odd used part or look at whats new. Whenever I see something new I see the same morons talking shit about anyones car that is not up to their "standards".

I understand its a forum and that everyone is entitled to their opinion.....but I don't understand how criticizing about the same things over and over again is okay? Note go onto any other forum and you will never see a community like Acurazine! Here the moderators will also hate on cars and like posts and let things "slip" under the radar.
I bet all these tough guys on here would never go around in real life telling people their cars look like shit. I am sure underlying dreams would go up to nitrous in real life and tell him how terrible his color combo is and how awful the front lip is. :lol:
I guess its easy to talk shit when you live behind a computer 24/7. In reality if I saw that kid I would doubt you have a driving license LOL!
Why did I single him out many will cry out? Because he adds his 2 cents in every thread. "Search", "OMG SEARCH", new member posting looking for help..... "hey lets tell him to search instead of helping him". New member asking a question "hey lets tell him to search instead of helping him".
Acurazine(3G TL)- Home of the biggest haters known to exist. No wonder Nitrous never posts up his car LOL, why would he? He clearly knows Acurazine has become a nonsense place. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy your little posse and continue criticizing others cars/posts. This community will go downhill soon enough, it already looks like hondatech.
I already removed my Acurazine stickers a long time ago, I can't rep such a awful community.

Anyways with that said, we still have some stand up members here that are helpful and open minded.
CLtotheTL, Rockstar, JTS, IHC, etc.
But if anyone was here 3-5 years it was a much different scene. I guess we got all the hondatech civic crowds crawling to cheap TL's, unfortunately thats what happens. It is what it is.

Bird is the Word
Anytime someone goes outside the box, he should be open to criticism... whether it be positive or negative. OP posted a pic of a random TL that is not recognized on here. Of course people are going to speak their mind. If you go back and read the comments a lot of people are simply saying it's not their style.

Well, I've been on here long enough to know that mods comes in cycles. Even myself I've been prone to saying I will never do something, then a year later, it's on the car. So I guess I'm a little more kind when I see something I'm not that into. I've always chosen to be "tactful" in displaying my opinion and generally do live by the whole "if you have nothing nice to say...". Like when I see a baby...if it ain't cute, I say nothing, if it is...I'll say "cute kid".
Plus, I've been on the receiving end of putting a lot of effort and time into a mod and it really sucks to get cut down when I decide to share it on the forum etc...doesn't mean everyone has to love it, but I do remember being pretty disappointed with responses when people just chimed in that it sucks, or were just repeating what someone else said.
I will say this, and I appreciate the positive comment,...I am in that circle of friends with Aaron, Austin and the band of merry miscreants... and I've gotta say that I love em! I was one of the first ones to say I did dig the color of that group, but I can understand that they don't. All good to me!
Shoot, I even texted with Bi today trying jokingly to convince him to go white on the wheels next time!
Anyway, all the anger and beef, for the most part, if you guys didn't have preconceived notions about each other, you'd realize how much you all have in common. Shoot, Dpat and I went through that in Justin's thread...and Anil and I broke new ground and haven't argued in like 6 months.
Just remember, on the interwebz we're ALL the smartest and coolest and wittiest and wisest...

This reminds me of users on Instagram, following celebs... God forbid someone has an opinion, you get jumped by a bunch of little school girls defending a person who they haven't met. Each to their own, I like the color of his car and that's about it. My taste is different from others and vise versa, we are entitled to an opinion, we just don't need a bunch of little school girls kind of deal.. Get my drift.
