just finished installing trunk lip spoiler on my friend's 2g tsx. it requires drilling 4 holes on the trunk but extra 3M modling tape was good enough.

2g tsx section definitely lacks some people with mod knowledge. i think almost everyone there pays about $150~300 to dealers or body shops for easy stick on trunk lips that can be done with extra molding tapes for $7...


now time to work on mine.
gonna strip the trunk and rear seat area again before the raammat arrives around next week.
already have some about 16sqft of dynamat but gonna fully cover that area now

took out all the trunk panels and rear seat area. now waiting for the raammat to arrive but still no show.
are door panels easy to remove? planning to do all four doors too.

inside is so loud with trunk exposed with no seats and no trunk panels. feels like riding on a convertible.

that's my concern too, however you can pick up some panel poppers at sears for like 20 dollars that should make the job much much easier. Well in theory haha I plan to do the same, if you beat me to it let me know how your doors went since they are probably similar to the TSX

yea, i already saw that instruction. it looks very easy on the paper but it'll be a bit of pain in the ass to pop those plugs out. and i'm pretty sure i'll break few of the taps off

popped out few more panels today
i just remembered that i can't touch the door panels yet until warranty expires. will need to replace all the power door locks once more before warranty runs out. even after replacing with new units, they still make straining noise whenever it locks/opens.

Sick, so it's probably going to be you, me and Ken. You guys might aswell bring the women since mine will be there.

We'll get drunk and go golfing at the country club, hahahaah.

I have 400 rounds of .223 and all of my magazines are loaded up and ready!

And yes, 400 isn't that much, but that's all I've been able to find )=

raammat arrived
its definitely thinner than dynamat but still good for its money.
also one more thing to rave about raammat is aluminum foil. dynamat's foil is razor sharp and its bitch too install without gloves. unlike dynamat, raammat's foil is soft and i have zero cuts on my both hands so far
