You betcha!...Photoshop rocks the casbah. If you look close...you can see me squating in the bumper reflection. I'm amazed as to how my original paint from 1998 is holding up.

If you can't tell, it's an Integra LS cluster and the bulbs are just red/orange 194 wedge bulbs. The civic clusters have a couple smaller bulbs. As for the climate control and radio, I just took them apart and painted the bulbs to match. I've been wanting to take some pics of my interior at night for soo long...just finally got around to it.

how do you like your Direzza tires so far
They're an excellent daily driving tire. I'll be testing them at the auto-x next weekend. Here's my review that I posted on tirerack.com: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Dunlop&tireModel=Direzza+DZ101&vehicleSearch=false&partnum=05VR5DZ101&fromCompare1=yes&place=2 (second one down)

Tires definately need to be broke-in...Ive only got about 800 miles on them...and didnt push them hard until 500 miles. The sidewall is definately soft compared to the Kumho Mxs I used to have...but they are a very sticky tire. Im anxious to see how these hold up on the track & auto-x. As for dd street driving...theyre wonderful.

i have about 4k-5k miles on mine, and as you wear them in OMFG they get sticky. i have yet to get noise from them in turns. im sure at auto-x you will get plenty. i just wanted a cheap but very effective tires (that i got for $38 too) that would look good, perform good, and provide a decent/quiet ride. im very hard to please when it comes to tires as i work for a tire company :D how else would i get direzzas so cheap

That's because you're a new kid. Here are a couple:





Just do some searching under my username...and you'll find tons of pics.
