Haha ya. I'm thinking either a white and gold color scheme or a white and black. We're gonna go look at that one tomorrow and if we get it, I'll probably start off with tinting the windows, powdercoating the rims black, painting the grille black, and removing the intake resonator. Hopefully you guys will see me rollin around in a new CM soon!

take some pics when you get your tints. im curious if your going with like 20% or even 15%, since the interior is lighter, just like mine and im wanting to get my windows tinted.

Well the one you saw was 15%. That I could still see through during the day time so I'm kind of leaning towards 5-10% on the sides and 15% in the rear. If I get that one I'll deffinitely take pics of it but why not just organize a meet too? Lol. I think for you, you should get 15%. It's a little darker than 20% and you can see alright at night. I don't think there's much difference between the 2 so why not just go darker. Just make sure that you have them change your window sills to felt because I had problems with the ceramic sills scratching the tints.

I'll post that info in the NW thread. Hopefully I'll get that white Accord. At first I thought it was a little weird but now it's like an urge to get it as a replacement

you're not seriously gonna go to yakima to check out that car are you?? That really far to go unless you're forsure gonna get it. 20% is still good if you don't have a sunroof. My windows are 20% and they're pretty hard to see in to, they're dark enought to get yelled at by a cop, but apparently not enough to get ticketed fore.

Well we're almost 100% sure that we'll get this car. I had 15% on my SBP coupe with black interior and I could still see into it. I had 15% for a year and never got stopped for it or questioned about it by a cop. So I might just go darker or keep the 15%. We'll see

I've got 15% on the rears, and it's pretty dark, but it's nothing extreme. I decided to go with the legal limit in my state (30% front, 15% rear), and I'm fine with it.

We didn't get to look at the car today because they took it to a dealer auction. So we have to wait untill tomorrow to see if they still have it then we'll go look at it. It probably didn't sell at the auction (knock on wood) so hopefully we can get it tomorrow.

So it turns out that the dealer did end up selling the Accord yesterday. So today I decided to look at TSX 6 Speeds and I found one at Acura of Bellevue. We looked at it today and decided to close the deal and get it. I know it's not exactly an Accord but it still has a K24 and stuff. I'll post pictures when we take delivery. And I'll still stay on the site because I love Accords so much and will miss mine very much.

Nice pick up. Yes its still an Accord. Can you say "Euro R?" And now you have the drivetrain all us K24 owners want. Sleep with one eye open! LOL.
