Thank god you didn't buy these:

I was the one who said the 2G TSX is better looking than the 1G.

Brandon, the mesh I wanted is three dimensional honeycomb. That's what pissed me off, I don't know where to get something like that (and I would want to look at it first to see if it fits my specs).

 

^ oic now.. hmm im sure someone sells it somewhere.. might have to order it from some online place but im sure its possible


edit..

found it on ebay

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honeycomb-Me...item3a6ee5d1c6

 

They are OEM 07 Base Taillights, why would they look APC, lol I don't like the Type-s taillights, but I do have the Type-S rims on my car

 

47x11 Inches. big enough for my needs. Now lets see if RJ will lower the price.

Now I'm really confused. The before shot is Type S lens?

 

^^ He has the 04 - 06 TL with all red tails, then assembled the 07 OEM tails to it cause they're cooler and such. Then he's running TLS wheels, and if he does the Type-S bumper conversion he'd have hype-s.

 

That is somewhat correct lol... I wont have the exhaust, interior, 3.5 engine.

I drive this car everyday and enjoy driving it, dont really want to mod it much more....

I have a Porsche project car that all my money will be getting dumped into lol

 

Thus the Hype-S and not Type-S lol

 

^ haha.. dont believe the HYPE.. dont dont believe..

sorry thats what song popped into my head


BRRRRRRRRR cold morning today.. crossing fingers for snow this weekend!!

 

Got it now, thanks guys.
I wish we could get a specific yes or no on the snow. I Really don't want to get the snow tires down unless I have to.

 

What do you need snow tires for? Do you live on some crazy hill?

 

Are there any shop that rebarrel my wheels? Been calling around And no luck

 

I found a place in detroit that'll do it, but obviously you have to ship them and it's not cheap to get it done.

 

If I was to ship it vrwheels or Memoryfab would be my next choice. I just want a local shop so It would be easier to see my choices and results. It just feels better knowing you can be there and fit the wheels on my car just for clearance.

 

is it dented that bad? (cant even get air to stay in tire) or is it minor something you would see if you hit a deep pothole? and just has a bend to the wheel?

 

mr marco, you realize that was me you saw at psu right?

 

Yep, can't get up or down this hill in the snow/ice. Sometime I have to chain up too.

 

yep, nice coincidence hu? I thought I told you park in the Fourth Ave Building?

 

Looks like freezing rain/ice. Going out to the garage right now to put the snow tires on. Was going to do the intake also but I can't find any reflective tape to wrap it in. Anyone know where to get some locally? I hate to pay shipping on something small and light like insulation tape.

 

why you need reflective tape??

 

This is actually what I want:


It's a heat sheild that keeps the CAI from soaking in all that heat from the engine bay. Unlike header tape which will absorb the heat, this reflects it away from the intake.

I'm also cosidering a turbo cover, I mean while I'm down there...

Speaking of going down there, In the spirit of me posting pics of my ex-girlfriends...I found this picture of the girl I moved to Portland for in the first place:



Yes, she is dressed as a peice of meat. Not just any meat, my former lover is in a bacon suit holding a dozen white ballons (which I presume are white fat cells). Yes, in true keep Portland weird form, she is protesting the dangers of eating meat.
I'm so glad I dumped her.
Because I love bacon, bitch.

 

Um fail or win? I can't tell

 

When I want to wrap intake piping, I always use this stuff.

Have used it on a bunch of my cars. The adhesive is a monster, will never let go. That's a good/bad thing. Won't come loose in the engine bay, but if you ever wanted to remove it, good luck with that.

 

Fail on that crAzY Bitch!!!
If I find the topless pic of her I'll postr that too, cause her titties were nice.

Yep, I just refered to my ex like a pig girl. lol
Perfect, I have already have a foil duct tape I could run over the top of if I want. That actually looks good just the way it is. As long as it doesn't melt it should work fine.

 

Looks like you got your wish snowman Brandon. Now I have to put on the boots to get my paper. Lazy paperboy, hu?

 

I need to put an extra 3 inch lip

 

 

didnt even see much.. saw some fall but for the most part my cement was bare.. im a bit dissapointed

OIC.. would it be cheaper just to buy new rims??

love the wide body kit!!

 

temped by this EVO 8 with new turbo

http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/cto/2795277983.html

Ugly cheap Lambo chaser.

 

108k on an evo? For 14k? No way

 

I said I was tempted, not stupid.

I'm always looking, but seldom buying.

 

that black s2000 next to it might be a better buy.. haha still would love to have one as a project car

 

Hey, HEY...don't bring up the S2000. That's a sore subject around here. Kinda like the Trans Am I wanted. It was a Barry White special. He has great talent and turns old classic muscle into modern hot rods:

Pinch of snow and portlanders can't seem to keep their car on the road... Fascinating

 

typical oregonians but causes major traffic thanks to them

on the morning commute, saw a jetta with chains on fully wet road. chevy malibu with california plate parked on the middle of the road causing major traffic jam. seemed to be out of gas and not prepared for longer commute when it snows.. and for the last, few cars driving over the curbs maybe because they cant see.

oh also eastbound 26 is fully clogged too

 

and finally got to test out winter tires on my accent. had it on the car since November thinking to hit the mountains but never had a chance yet

 

Left the house at 7AM, got to work at 9:20. Wake up Portland. Apparently some people here in PDX have a short term memory problem. Wasn't it just 3 years ago that the entire city was shut down to everyone WITHOUT snow tires on their car? Decided since I had the snow tires on that I would go Barnes/Burnside to avoid the HWY26 snarl. BAD IDEA. HGot to the top and then had to turn around and head back down. Dude, if you drive a Pontiac Grand Am and don't have snow tires, you have no right being on the road.
Almost got rear ended by a station wagon. Made sure to flip a finger as she slid passed me in the middle of the road.

 

amazing to see people going into full panic mode with slight snow.

 

L know, in Wisconsin we would just laugh and laugh...

 

Portlanders go into full panic mode over everything. We are a town of over reacting babies.

 

Going up to ETS today to pick up my TMIC.
