did you tell her stock is for people with no pizaz (sp?) I guess that would be a small fight waiting to happen though haha.. gotta pick your battles =)

damn the oregon potholes.. we pay our tax dollars to fix them and yet there are billions on all our streets.. and what i reallllllllllllly hate are the ruts that are created from studded tires on the streets..
let me know if you find someone to fix your rim.. i need to get my curb rash fixed on 1 side of mine

Yeah, you're right, I'd be running late if I saw you. Dawson Creek Business Park, huh? Just off Shute/Brookwood? You guys are in my back yard.

What are you using for your fogs - are they HID? I'm running Hoen Xenonmatch, which match the my stock 4300Ks pretty well, but they're getting kinda boring. Do you have any trouble with police with the yellow fogs when it's not foggy out?

Not true - my wife likes that her '05 Camry is completely stock , but then again, I don't think that there are very many mods for Camrys. She's more into home improvement - painting rooms, new furniture, etc. She doesn't see the point in modding cars - she thinks my TL-S is too low, and I've only got H&R Sports!

they make stuff for the camry.. its what i was gonna choose instead of the TSX but decided i wanted something more realiable and i know alittle more about since i came from 3 other previous honda vehicles.

my wife wants to trade the TC for either the g37 or the is350 and wants to keep it stock.. but im biting my lip on it haha

More reliable than the Camry? I love my TL, but that Camry is one solid vehicle. It's a little boring, but extremely well-engineered and well-built.

That's quite a step up - from a TC to a G or an IS! Love the IS, but it's not in my near future. Got college to save up for (unless the oldest gets a Lacrosse scholarship! )

only why i say the camry imo isnt as realiable is cuz ive seen bad things first hand from family members.. just bad luck i guess

ya the dancing cat is gone.. gonna try and put my car up tonight but thought i would post the DAZZ turbo first hehe..

the IS is alittle crammed but still fun to drive.. love the new looks too.. Im hopen to go for the g37 only cause of the HP difference
only reason we are waiting is cause i have 2 years left on the tsx for payments.. TC is already paid for.. and i hate haven extra bills like to pay as much as possible in cash..

BTW anyone lookin for some 17s chrome winter rims? they are DOA rims paid 900 for them at les schwaby ill sell for 350 great condition.. no curbings (only ones i could save from it).. they came off the TSX before i got the 19s i can pist pics too if anyone is interested

I just took a look. Not sure how i feel about only seeing the back portion of the sub. Id really like to have the version 1 enclosure...but on each side.

Maybe ill shoot him a PM and see what can be done since hes not too far away.

rediculously early. Speaking of time, I hate this time change crap! I don't mind waking up in the dark, coming to work in the dark, but when I leave the office and it's getting dark it's a problem!

The guy that everybody goes to is named Skip. He owns Skip's wheelwerks in beaverton. Super cool guy, older guy, does rims repair and refinish. He would've charged me $75 to fix the bent, said if cant fix it, then no charge. Its located in beaverton.

http://www.skipswheelwerks.com/

But unfortunately, my rims were cracked and bent so its non repairable. But on the bright side, slapping on new rims on friday!
