Didn't mean to be rude. I just like the more standards cars. Maybe some gray wheels but nothing too fancy.
But I must admit that maybe watching your car in person, must make a different reaction :p

not rude at all. we all have different tastes. :)

thanks to the others for the compliments.

I love this car. The the best E Class AMG body they have ever made. Way better than the current one. Its kinda slow though...:rolleyes:(I joke). And for the M5, it still is a good car. I think it looks pretty clean, I would still take the E63 though.

i agree on the body style. i don't like the new body and will not be upgrading. as for preferences, the amg is a stoplight dragking and the m5 is a highway monster. they both have different merits.

Doesn't look all too different from stock. Just black wheels and grilles.

I like it! Love E60's

cosmetically, you're essentially right. oem wheels painted satin black, grills and vents are all color-matched, tails are smoked, 35% tint.

ride height is dropped about 1/2" and front and rear wheels pushed out 12mm and 10mm respectively for a more aggressive stance.

Did you replace your headlights with aftermarket ones with projectors? If so those are some of the best ones i've seen, the look like they came with the car.

No, I am happy with MY purchase. Not to mention I bought the car in 2008. I would not have bought a Camaro regardless. Also, I have owned Mustangs (& still own one) since I was 18 years old and I wanted a change. My prference, my money, my choice. ;)

Love the ride and enjoy your purchase! My wife has a '09 red SRT8 Challenger. Very comfortable, very nice, and sooooo powerful. I love taking it out to "run some errands". :D:D

Very nice Integra! Have you ever considered doing a full front end swap? JDM Integra headlights and all :) Either or it still looks sweet!

I just got my car back from the body shop after doing a complete paint job! I'm so happy I got my baby back!

It's called retrofit. You open up your OEM headlights and throw in some OEM projectors and bezels from a TSX, E46, S2K, etc etc. It's some what of a long process but the information is out there all over the internet and very well worth it! If you have a 5th gen Prelude and would like to get it done you can look up how to do a retrofit on preludepower . com or ask one of the members there to do it for you but I hear its pricey.
Just google "how to retrofit headlights" It'll give you many examples and directions. Good luck!

Here's more of my baby! :cool: :p

Wow, thanks for all of the kind comments everyone! Some more photos from this afternoon.





Is this size alright for posting in here? Or should I use smaller sizes when posting photos? Please let me know I don't want to cause any trouble.

Thanks
Cheers
Mike

Hi
Can i jump start car by taking off someone elses battery?Here is the problem. In about few days I should be receiving my car that has bad battery. The thing is that it will be coming on a big truck that usually has 3-4 cars on the bottom and about same on top. When truck gets here I need to be able to start battery to get car down to the ground. This is the reason I cannot simply jump start from another car.

The thought has crossed my mind, but these cars are getting harder to find with a clean title and unmolested so I didnt want to hack up the front end if there is nothing wrong with it.

I also have retrofitted headlights. I used projectors from a Acura TSX with Phillips bulbs and ballasts. It makes driving at night soooo much better.
