Why are loading docks such a popular area for car photos?

IMO you should tint the tails to keep up with the red/black them. Some people think that tinted tails on a nsx look odd but I think they're dope.

Jesal, you won't have to post your NSX pics in cartalk that much longer... After the upgrade to AZ next week, you and G should be able to post in your own car forum

I hate going to other forums other than AZ, never feels like home.

Time to recruit some NSX owners..

WOW!! Those HREs are amazing!! They really make the car pop.

What are you doing with your old Work wheels? I need an extra set for my car, and those old Works are a classic.

I am gonna sell them. The two front have bends in them but they hold air. Local wheel place can fix them with no issues though.

If you interested them PM me with am offer. They come with tires that have good amount thread left.

Shocks will be here Monday. Install next week sometime...

Yea its nice to have the wheels on but its annoying that the selling not only lied about them not being bent, but also about them not rubbing.

The 235s in front rub. Should have known but i just left him one nasty feedback on the nsx forum. First time i have ever had to do that.
