Couldn't have said it better myself.

Mr. Marco just likes to piss in everyone's Cheerios. Oh well, before too long he'll probably be in Depends so we may as well let him have his fun while he still can.

...and drilled/slotted rotors are for racecars.

Do you track your TL or are you just the pot calling the kettle black?

Mr Marco

That is the difference between you and I. I don't bother with mods that I don't gain speed or agility from.

You are a tasteless hack who goes around stroking everyone in some sad method of seeking acceptance. Sadly, you have no real experience with automobiles other than to lease one.

Drilled/slotted rotors have a function besides looking like a fake BMW.

The reason I have slotted rotors is because it was time to get new pads and it was more cost effective to get the rotors and pads done at the same time by the guy that I have do this stuff.

Since I do 85%+ of my driving in a heavily urban environment, I figured that it was safer to have slotted rotors because they will self-remove the water if I go through a puddle (as a side note, this was my first car with "open" rims and the water on the brakes was much more evident than any of the other 7 cars that I have had). When I was buying the brakes, the place I bought them from had the same price for drilled/slotted as slotted only, so I figured that having drilled rotors wouldn't hurt if I ever had to slam my brakes on to avoid getting into an accident or hitting a pedestrian/bicyclist.

Plus, as an added bonus, when I sell my car in a few years, 4Gs will be heavily into the ricing product stage, so I figured that (functional benefit aside) it would be a good selling point to some teenager from the projects that would more than pay for itself.

Mr Marco

^ You should ask him how well his "Takeda" intake works

Talk about kettles...let's see those dyno results again.

OP is gone.

Bottom line, this isn't a mod that one really gains anything from. As far as I know BMW introduced these to the market. Just because you can get a kit for your Hyundai doesn't mean that it is worth the $$$ or effort. Perhaps a few of you have lost touch with the main reason to mod the car in the first place. TO MAKE IT STOP AND GO FASTER, CORNER BETTER and out perform the other guy.

If your goal is too look cooler, you have missed the point.

I respect that, but why hate on everyone who thinks different?

That's the difference between you and I, I really don't care what people think.

And though I don't have any 'real' experience I do all my own maintenance and most of my mods on my own.

AE's replace DRL's so they do serve a purpose.

Again, I'm not a fan but I've seen a hell of a lot worse.

It serves it's purpose as a noisemaker. I knew what to expect and would do it again.

Thats Ok I still like them. I'm from a smaller town, I guess people aren't so judgmental here.

No, absolutely not. Perhaps you've lost touch with the main reason to mod YOUR car. I mod MY car to please ME. If it makes me happy, I'm doing it right.

Performance reasons being the only reason to mod a car? We are talking about semi-luxurious four door family sedans from Honda. In case you need reminded.

Why do people put on fake brembo covers? Why do people paint their engine bay covers? Why do we paint our the roofs black? Why do we put on lips and spoilers? I mean I could go on and on about all the things the majority of us to do our cars that don't fit in your "modding logic".

Trolls troll.

I'm a tasteless hack yet you prefer to let the Acura designers determine exactly what your car should look and drive like...too funny.

If I wanted acceptance don't you think I would keep my mouth shut instead of voicing my opinion? I can assure you the last people on the face of this planet that I want to be accepted by are a bunch of strangers on the internet. My guess is you are the one who is desperately seeking acceptance from people half your age, which is why you spend every hour of your pathetic life on a car enthusiast forum yet you have no interest in aftermarket upgrades. The only reason I should mod my four door family sedan is to make it go faster, stop faster, and turn better? Why...so I can outrun the guy next to me at a stoplight while my daughter is in the backseat? Do you realize how stupid you really sound?

Lastly, where in the hell did you get the idea that I'm leasing my car?

Why don't you just go back to endlessly scouring the internet for funny pics and videos since that's the only value you add to this site.

hey that's my car!

yah i guess they aren't for everyone, i happen to love them. they add a lot of style up front and the rings themselves are not "small"...they fill out the projector housing perfectly.

This AZ enthusiasts forum is far from reserved only for Acura owners who mod their vehicles.

This forum is all everyone, including those who don't even drive an Acura, or those who once have an Acura but moved on to other brands. Even some of our active forum modulators don't drive Acura any more.

This forum provides valuable information on problems, fixes, improvements, news, as well as modding advices, to both STOCK and MODDED vehicle owners.

maharajamd

iTrader: (1)

Thanks for clarifying.

OK, why comment in a 'mod' oriented thread? Lol

Hey-all of you.....



What the hell does dick size have to do with halo lights?



Remember that question when you get a Ban notice.......

vivmike

Exactly.. I agree, Steven.

Lets get back on topic guys.

ngravatt

who asked? The guy that started the forum. the first question in this thread ask 'where do i get some halos'. all i'm saying is shut up with your opinion and provides some information instead of wasting someones search time and saying stuff off topic. when i search for halos now, I get to read comments about people saying 'I think your car looks like dookie with that mod'.

------------------------------------
mpoly37,
you can get halos from these places
Search on ebay for the part. bunch of options
here is another vendor
http://www.carid.com/2010-acura-tl-headlights/

I recommend you research the part you go with on here to see if anyone has had issues.

---------------------------------------------
see how that works?

At least give the member some info if your going to say you don't like his idea. this is why its hard to search for some people.

Twisted-TL

What lip is on the white one?

Edward'TLS

OEM factory front aero piece.

Twisted-TL

Thanks, just bought my wife an 2011 and I quite like the look of the white tl, halos and lip.

maharajamd

iTrader: (1)

Are you dense? The only reason I posted in this thread was to second the xb morimoto suggestion as I have personal experience with both halos.

Reading... see how that works?

ngravatt

are you dense? i am not talking about your helpful comments on your personal experience. i clearly quoted two OTHER people who made useless comments on their OPINION about halos. the first comment i made was not directed at you, but the other people that only say 'your idea is stupid'. quit trying to talk trash to someone that isnt even talking to you. most of your comments are helpful, some people's are not, and that is all i said. calm down.

Mr Marco

Whoops, sorry marmaduke. Looks like gravatt has encountered my gravity and been sucked in to the mr marco vortex.

ngravatt

ha. my bad. i dont want to make anyone made or create and hate on a forum dedicated to modding your acura. ill just take the high road here and apologize for my comments about others. sorry if i offended anyone in anyway. marmaduke appears to have a lot more knowledge than me and i never meant to tell him to shut up. we good?

vivmike

Yeah. We good now. I almost had you banned.

gibbyisgibby

I think your first post was misunderstood...

maharajamd

iTrader: (1)

We've talked. It's all good.

vivmike

eHug?

ngravatt

Nah. I just paypaled him $500 not to have me banned

gkon

I dunno, I give up!

Twisted-TL

It have everything to do with halo sizing, gotta make sure that the halos are the right size after all! Why do you think the BMW halos are so small? Hahahaha

Mr Marco

^Hmm, it's ironic. However, there just might be something to this "size of the halo" thing that has been brought up.

This actually looks good \/


vs. this \/ which looks dumb IMHO.


There is a signifigant size difference between the two as well as the fact that the BMW has four halos.

Food for thought.

maharajamd

iTrader: (1)

I completely agree. That's why I went out of my way to go with the absolute biggest halo that would fit.

Those above in the 4G are probably 70 or 80mm. Those BMWs look more like 120.

I also happen to like it when the top and or bottom get cut off a bit like the BMW. I installed mine that way. Well, the bigger rings wouldn't have fit had I not modded them in that way.
