My LX HFP sedan with new pics with lamin-x installed

PR8thgen<ivi> · 10-18-2006, 08:21 PM

Hi guys.
Long time I have not been in the forums, being pretty busy but anyways I got the chance to take a few pics of my sedan with the lamin-x installed on my taillights. I had installed them also on the headlights but at night the visibility was terrible so I took them off (it hurt since during the day the car looked meaner) and also since I have my front glass tinted, its like having double tint. Hope to get some night pics, it looks awesome because when lights are on, the lower part of the tails looks dark and only the top part looks dark red, in the third pic you can see a similar look of what the lights look at night. This little mod I recommend to any sedan owner. Well, here are the pics.

that doesnt' look like an LX at all..

looks hella good

Dude I love you car!

its been the only one for inspiration for me and my silver EX sedan! I'm glad I found ur pics and your new ones really help!

So can you clarify something for me? do you have 18" or 17" rims? I was thinking 17's would be the best performace. Have you noticed any lag in speed or handling with the body kit, rims, etc?

I'm not sure if i'd go full HFP body kit in the future, and i dont know if your car is lowered or just 18"ers
I'm also gonna get the trailer hitch installed (for a bike rack).

very clean...

**Yodums** · 10-18-2006, 09:17 PM

Wow, you have one of the cleanest sedans on this site. I love the way your tails iluminate with the lamin-x in the second and third pictures.

OblivionJin · 10-18-2006, 09:22 PM

That is one mean ass sedan... nicest I've seen in a while.

CivicWithNav · 10-18-2006, 09:41 PM

those have to be 18's

Exeon · 10-18-2006, 09:50 PM

good choice on the HFP kits, best looking sedan

the.overlord · 10-19-2006, 01:40 PM

Congrats!

aznchzexr · 10-19-2006, 01:43 PM

Man, thanks to ALL you guys

It's great to receive good feedback because I have seeing a lot of guys that have made comments that the sedan does not look good or is a grocery getter, and you know that the details are what make a car stand out.

As for the question on the rims, they are 18's. And yes, the car is running on stock suspension, the rims definitely made the car look lower, and ofcourse the bodykit too. As for performance, since my car is auto, from a dig is always going to be a bit slow, even with 16's, 17's or 18's. I installed a borla and that helped in mid to high end punch, from 3,500 rpm and up. But I really installed it because I just did not want a simple tip. But my car is staying stock for now, since I'm married and with 2 kids to feed

If I was single, I could have the fastest R18 auto since here in Puerto Rico is where the fastest 4 cylinder cars live

and I could have the guys at Jo Tech transform my car into a monster, they have an RSX-S running close to 9's and is an everyday street car

But my reality is not that so, I just love my car for its looks. If your going to auto-x, I think 17's would be best for you, it all depends on what type of performance and racing your going to be doing. Well, good luck on your mods

slimjim8481 · 12-01-2006, 01:14 PM

Hold up...... you said that you had your "front glass tinted". You mean your front winshield? I guess thats how they do it in Puerto Rico. I know that sh!t wouldnt fly where I live. I am going to tint the rear turn signals in my coup. I would like to do the whole tail light, but it seems that my cars have a target on them.

All I need is some a-hole to rear end me and say they couldnt see my tails.

Yours looks awesome though.
