i posted my 240sx up for sale on craigslist and this phishy sounding lady emailed me wanting to buy the car without checking the car. she said she have busy work schedule so will be mailing out the check and movers will pick up the car along with other properties. so now she wants my full name, address, cell number, home number so she can send out the payment.

could this be real? it smells too phish to be true

^ Bro..so fake. My fiancee got the same kind of reply when she was selling her PS2 slim on craigslist..there are scammer/hacker type people just sending out the same generic email to posts like that. The douche that contacted her sent an obviously fake check that woulda been rejected instantly. And even if it was real, there's no way I would ever accept a check from someone I don't know. People can do crazy things once they get the tiniest bit of info on you and without knowing them (so I could sue their asses later if something did happen) I'd rather just play it safe.

I guess I'm a bit confused why you say the crystalline isn't worth it. Is it just because it's basically clear film?

i would concur... considering i work at wells fargo doing bank fraud.. lots of people out there trying to scam.. i think there is a disclosure about it on craigslist too saying not to take checks N'stuff..

be careful of the Job scamming too lots of people out there falling for that.. heck my wife even got an email saying she was one of the finalists for a position but she has to send in a picture of her self so they know who they are talking to since they are located out of the country.. some real sickos out there

I dunno if it's worth it because, compared to stock, my tint now will reduce way more heat then before. With that said, I dunno how much more crystalline can actually deflect than 18% carbon. If it's worth it for you for the supposed 9% increase in "solar heat reduction (straight off 3M's website) then knock yourself out, but I'll be happy with what I'm getting now.
Plus you'll lose the sweet dark windows with just a crystalline tint. It would be awesome for the windshield tho

But that's just my opinion..ultimately it's your car, your money and your decision. Nothing matters more than what you think so don't base your decision off of what I say...

If all else fails you can run the defouler and not get a CEL again, however I never had a CEL but the 06 might be a bit different.

Government controls every aspect of our lives they can, wait till they get nationalized healthcare and tell you that you can't drive certain cars cause they may be "unhealthy"
Don't get me started on our new "administration" they are a bunch of winners that's for sure.

Happy turkey day everyone. Get fat on stuffing and anything else you can get on a plate cuz it's the only day of the year you can pretty much stuff your face and then watch some football without getting ish from someone. So enjoy it.

i did. My brothers and i pulled an all nighter lol. Actually, we didnt really plan on going shopping. We had our turkey get together and were having such a good time that time flew by (2am) that we decided screw it and go out just to experience "black Friday". We headed down to local mall and it was packed at 330 with lines wrapped around all the entries. Said screw it, went to fredmeyers and got a bunch of nike socks for 50% off lol. By the time we got out it was 630 and we were zombies.




Never again.

Yeah sorry if it sounded like I was gettin' on your ass about it. I'm just worrying more than I need to about all the different options I have. It's kind of hard to get a good read on what that Crystalline tint is all about, advantages/disadvantages over the normal tint you see, etc.

dont quote me, but i think on the original invoice, it said for some year accord, 99-03 TL, and 04+ TL

If you wanna find out if they will fit. Or if its just a matter of a new mounting plate, id let them go for a little cheaper since you are local.

oh actually let me get back to you on that. i'm not in a rush cause my car's not even lowered so if anyone wants it before me then go 'head sell it.

anyway finally got around to painting my winter wheels... i went ahead and did the white with red because i think i'll get sick of the gold. i used engine enamel clear coat 'cause they didnt have the wheel clear coat but it works.
sorry for the bad quality; camera phone:





2 coats primer, 3-4ish coats color, 3 coats clear
turned out not that bad for winter wheels eh? lol i actually cant wait til it snows so i can mount them.

i can get some bulk 3M 'headlamp' film. can't guarantee that it wont burn cause the fogs are a lil hotter. pretty thick though, i have them over my headlights.

i'm assuming you can cut to fit since fogs aren't to hard to outline. let me know throw some numbers
