Thanks guys!

There's still alot to be done to the car to make the way I want. The car looks the way I want for the most part but there's always something you can add to make it better.

If it wasn't for the 3geez community I joined 4 years ago (it's been 4 years already) my car wouldn't be like this for sure!

There's a but of everyone's touch in there!

Hey man. Well done. It's about time, you deserved this a while back man. Your car is so cleanly cut looking, and quite the powerhouse as well. If we had to pick the top 5 3geez to represent 3geez.com to the world, you'd be one of them. Job well done, and congrats as well.

Congratulations Carotman. Yours is one of most beautiful tuned 3G Accord I have ever seen. I love the way your car looks - outside is very clean, relatively discreet, if I don't know the car well I wouldn't notice the mod but very well balanced. And underneath there is a full spec full tuned twin cam. Oh, it is true beuty. I feel I have good a day today.
