Mine could use a major detail, I could probably just paint it faster than try making it look good again. Yeah, I'll just do that.

Props to some of the work you guys are doing though, I wish I knew how!!

What you would have said in 2001, mr white rims with polished lip.


I'd still rock those if they were forged. I love polished lip on any rim!



That exhaust would look mint if you used metal polish & 2000 grit sandpaper. Minimal work

^ pretty cool

Washed it for the first time on the weekend but I'll need to wax it soon.

-Painted the calipers silver
-Put on the red vinyl to get rid of the ugly yellow signals today (looks way better)
-Light smoke vinyl on the lower reflectors to better blend in with taillights
-Put in Philips Ultinon bulbs in headlights
-Wheel spacers on the way
-Pick up Tanabe springs Saturday
-Rear ghetto tint comes off and new 50% tint comes on Wednesday

Looks better with no perceivable difference in light output (even though technically it may be slightly less). It's the little details that make a car look better than a stock one while still looking close to OEM.

This spray paint that I always use and lots of masking and patience. It holds up pretty well and every spring I just lightly hit it again. I can check into what kind it is but it's not a specialty paint it's a metallic silver that's very durable.

^i do that too, I really need to do the tsx's rear calipers. I sand the rust off and spray the spray paint into a cup and use one of those sponge brushes and dab it on. Sticks nicely and no mess.

I wanted pre cut for the rear signals (they're a funny shape) so there is one place on eBay that has it but lamin-x red is good. Just depends on the car but honestly it matches right on. I had it on my is350 the entire time I owned it and it was perfect. Looks like how it should have from the factory and lights up fine too.

Looks great! Why's the wife still on winters?

I can't find the mitt anywhere locally and don't want to risk paying $100 for it by the time I get it from the US So I tried the clay again and it did what it needed to... it'll do.

Whatever I can't find the origional thread searching on my phone I'll just post it here. If you guys remember I tried that 3M spray clear bra thing back in fall. I took it off, it was like Saran wrap, but it did do something because the headlights came out Really clean. It was cold and rainy when I took it off so it came off pretty easily.

Headlights yellow due to the UV coating wearing out, so unless this spray on stuff has UV protection it isn't going to do jack for yellowing.

Wow my car is way lower now lol

New coilovers on last week and new rims come in next week (avant garde m580 in 20's). I look forward to being able to wax the car in the next few weeks - I feel I'm getting old.
