These I took today after a good cleaning. They are a bit on the yellowish side, gonna keep looking for whiter garage lights but they still turned out pretty nice.

Since the last pics I have added black Kyougen (spelling) lug nuts, amber JDM side markers and an Injen Short ram (not picutred:o )

Enjoy, and by the way, take a good look at the stereo in the last one, hard to see but you might be able to make it out...:D

p.s. If anyone here knows of someone who might want to purchase a set of clear lensed, amber bulbed side marker lights for their EP or RSX let me know because I have the ones from my car and they still have the JDM wiring and all.

damn, i got that same head unit. it looks so tight. do you have a problem with it being to high on the dash? I can barely see the screen so i put it on black out mode

hey chapSchtick, love the new pics i have a question, the side markers ihave been looking for them for a while now i know were to get them but did you just buy the lens or the whole housing too, do the lenses fit our housings or do wew have to change the whole thing,

sorry for the run-on but you should know what i mean

thanks goldy

thanks dudes...

ya, the head unit being so high and already angled up is a bit of a pain in the pooper, kinda makes the tilt feature uselsss. Black-Out is a good idea, nice a stealthy.

as for the side markers, when I bought mine it was the whole thing for a JDM Integra (RSX) R. Bought them at Racing Zone here in Orlando, great guys. Had the amber lenses, bulbs and wiring harness. Basically all I did was swap the housings, easiest mod I have ever done. BTW, I used a plastic bondo spreader to get the side markers out of the fenders. Stiff but yet pliable plastic with a sharp edge, no sweat.

2fatscivic the teins are not the ss they are the type flex so no mods were needed, straight bolt on, but the biggest pain in the ass to get set right, the ride is awful but thats what you get when you get a semi race set-up i cant imagine getting a full blown race set-up like the buddy clubs.

Thanks for the wallpaper too!

I shrunk it to 1024x768 and saved it as a bitmap.

I love using .bmp's for wallpaper, it doesnt compress the file at all, the file is like 2.5mb right now LOL, but its crystal clear.

Is the ride with the Type Flex suspension really all that bad? I am looking into getting it, along with a few other parts, in the next few weeks and am looking for feedback from owners. I am trying to set my car up for very agressive handling, so some ride degradation is expected. Also, does getting the EDFC controller help the ride any, being that it allows you to adjust the suspension?
