But yeah I thought that was a sweet backdrop, so I gave it a shot. No bonfires.

Steven, Steven, Steven...Seriously Steven...Do you really expect the jury to believe that you had a chance to get this and you said no?:

Order! Order in the court I say! I know it looks good, but calm down or I will clear this courtroom! Counselor Ray, you may proceed with the witness...
(Thank you Your Honor!)
No way am I going to believe that Steven! You know what I think? I think you were coerced into that decision! C'mon Steven, we're a family here! Level with us! Do you want to end up like Brett? Rodney? Slammed? They all really believe their car color is better! But you Steven...you haven't had your car long. There is still hope for you! The first step is admitting your true feelings. Get it out Steven, it's the only way we can help. At least you KNOW NBP RULES...and knowing is half the battle...
Come to the Dark side Steven...it is your destiny!!!!

Maybe he fell into the trunk of that NBP and can't get out............?
Either that or he went out to trade in his NBP for an ASM or WDP...........LOL

Ha! It's all good, though, because I think it looks stunning in real life.TL-S tails are definitely on the "I'm thinking about getting that" list. I'm trying to be cautious with how I spend my money, and for the time being, I'm all about making some rims happen. TL-S tails are tied in priority with A-Spec front lip; maybe a slight edge leaning toward the lip.

I did the sides and the seat memo buttons. None of that red stuff now. Check this out, I was coming back to my car at the Target, and my car was looking like a stealth bomber! Those sides really change the picture a lot! What's that? You want to see what it looks like too? Awww, geez...do I have to? Ok, be right back! Gimme about 30 minutes, I gotta eat so that I can keep having the energy to take these damn pictures! (j/k...?)

FYI, that is the Martinelli's plant -- the same one that makes that sparkling cider that comes in the green bottles. The apples are grown here... and the cider is bottled here (Watsonville, California). Not sure if that stuff is sold throughout the US, but it's pretty popular in California.

I think the contrast between the wood and the WDP (aka your dream color) looks pretty good.

I was at work yesterday and saw this WDP go by and it looked unscathed by pollen, then this NBP went by immediately thereafter and it was like green! I was like damn! Hahahahaha! I guess you gotta pay the cost to be the boss!!

Legend, and 03 TL-S and the interior was camel or tan. Hard to keep clean over time. See, another reason why NBP is best! LOL!
I've actualy had the itch to start modifying the seats, if you can believe that. Thinking about making them two-tone somehow. It's probably a project that'll cost way too much money, so it's only in "I think that would be cool" stage right now...totally conceptual.

I've thought about that too. I was going to do an electric blue ( that matches the gauges and LED's) Alcantara insert in the seats and the door panels- but I'm guessing that takes plenty of $$$ and that right now is not in the beer budget.
