    i don't know. i like the look on the outside and i normally don't like stripes. but the carbon fiber around the gauges and vents and a huge tach for an automatic looks out of place.

    If your poor why spend any money on a ridiculous tach...? Sure it's your money and all but you could have saved that money or spent it on something that is actually useful.

    Nitrous is a waste too...

    Where do you get carbon fiber vinel? I may do some touchups to my car like the plastic peice on the headlights. And i want to spray tint the rear lights like yours and the front blinkers and fog lights.

    Why do you even need a tachometer? Your car is automatic.

    Last time I checked, the cluster has a tach on the left.. lol.

    The CF vinyl came out pretty nice, good job on that

    Its either the type-r badge on a non-r car(or generation for that matter..) or the tach, something has to go.

    You don't want me to go rice-nazi on ya man.

    I got the carbon fiber from ebay.
    Its fairly easy to work with just apply and hit with a heat gun.
    I bought it from metro sellers its called carbon fiber 1
