Looks sorta like the ones i bought. But i bought 4 door lights and all the dome lights for $15 on eBay from U.S sellers. Is that $17 a light? That's crazy.

That's not bad for 8, but I'm betting those are just repackaged Chinese LEDs. I bought all mine off eBay, but I bought most of em in sets of 2.

Today I drove the tsx for the first time in 5 days. When braking I noticed a weird noise, sounded like the brakes were fucked up... My sister whose sitting beside me whose been driving the car says "oh that noise has been happening and it's really weird" and she claimed that she was too busy to tell me about it... I looked under the car, the belly pan? this metal thing is dragging down... I guess the bolts got loose and it fell down...

^you'll need to be more specific.
can you take a pic of the piece that's hanging down?

unless she hit something, bolts dont usually back off on their own*



*some cases, of incorrect torqued bolts will back off on their own

Hey gaiz, I has a question. Do rotors that are black zinc plated still get rusty? I need to replace my rotors and I HATE rusty rotors!!!!!!!!

the hub part will stay black.

however, if it rains or if you wash your car, the face of the rotor will get rusty. but once you drive and stop, the pads will wipe away the rust.

That's probably the metal cover that covers the bottom of the transmission. I noticed mine was loose when i took it off to change my trans fluid.

So it's pretty much the same as regular rotors with the hub painted black? I thought the all black zinc plated ones didn't get any rust build up at all. FACK


Just some reference pictures so you know what I'm talmbout





as opposed to

ohhhh shit! thanks for providing pics!!

i didnt know the whole rotor was covered.

actually, that zinc coating comes off once you brake, just like the example I gave above...when you wheels do a full rotation during braking, it'll wipe it clean.

after looking at this pic, ive come to the conclusion that the face of the rotor will still get rusty after rain or a wash.
but will wipe clean once you do a full rotations worth of braking

Gracias amigo. That's what I figured, but I was hoping otherwise. I just looked at robpp's thread and you are correct, the black zinc coating wears off and eventually becomes silver again. GAY

probably the lower engine cover. you don't really NEED it. when it fell of my 2010 i rode around without it. its meant to protect against rocks and stuff flying up there, also for aerodynamics probably
