I'm addicted...
...to CARBON FIBER. 
spent the day doing some mods until the rain cut my day short. Installed my sprint booster, TI burnt lug bolts, CF trunk star, and brought the car to my buddies shop to get my 3M CF vinyl, which i got from Don Nguyen, installed on the roof and trunk chrome strip. the pics are kinda crappy and the car is mad dirty so ill be taking better pics tomorrow after i take the side chrome molding off.
also for the people who removed there side strips what did you use to remove the glue adhesive? Goo-gone is to weak and hardly worked after i debadged the trunk.

meguires cleaning wax, like the stuff to remove road tar and bugs is what I use on stuff like that. Then go over it with some regular wax cause u kinda strip the base wax off w that stuff, any kind of remover u should re wax afterwards

I just used goo-gone and it worked fine. Let it sit for a but and reapply a couple of times. It just rolls off after that. Then wash and wax. Love the other mods.

thats cuz those are either nexen or general tires. They run their tread on the sidewalls a bit too far and make them look meatier than they are. I had a set of nexens on my rears in 30 and they looked much fatter then the 35s on the front. Thats why I always stretch one size down on my tires, makes the tires look even slimmer.

how do you like the sprint booster? i am strongly considering one at this point.
I jump between an acura and this c300 and i enjoy driving the Acura more simply because the pedal lag is disasterous in this car

, there not BBS LM reps though, the BBS's have rivets and have a small lip then a window. these wheel just have a large lip with no window and no rivets. they are petrol vengeance wheels. but the do resemble BBS.

Let's start with the stickers all over the windows and the blue lugs...just saying...Hey man, your car - do as you wish obviously, it is a beatiful car - but expect comments when you grab ideas off the civic forum.
