Nice! Ya, on the 2nd page of that sounddomain link was my 4-dr EX Accord that had Tokico+Sprint combs that laid the rubber just a hair from the wheel well. It was a nice setup. I was able to find those TEIN springs S Techs for $178+shipping. I'll just have to be patient or just save up for the H+R cup kits. As far as Steve being more cheaper than the dealership...if he has those same 2005+ blinkers like you have for cheaper, how can i get a hold of him or does he have a website?

Happy modding!

Thanks a bunch Drexy! I'll have my ride pimpin' like the rest of y'all soon. I have a little more cosmetic work to be done, but it'll be a slow process. Let's see, i've thus far accomplished this much:

- color match grill fins w/6.5" center star conversion
- flat badge
- projector lights + kaixen 6500K HID's
- clear fogs + Halo 3000K yellow bulbs
- diamond clear side markers BG Hybrid hyper whites
- S-Class rear tail light conversion
- K&N drop in filter + Flowmaster exhaust/chrome dual tip (non resonator)
- H+R lowering springs (front only) rear is stock w/#2 pads front/rear
- Clarion VXD765 touch screen in-dash dvd

I may have forgotten a few lightbulb upgrades to hyper white, but essentially, that's the bulk of it...til next time

Happy modding!

The car looks real good bro.
I just ordered my front bumper and need the grilles and fogs. Do you have the part numbers for the mesh grilles and fog lights?
Thanks

C55 rear and sides should fit your car, but the front end will require alot more work and parts than just swapping one to the other.
