    ^ Make sure you use a heat gun and not a hair dryer.

    Most people on here recommend doing this to the trim on our cars. It's been done and worked.

    haha your getting the same as me. I get paid every other Friday. Money sucks though. I see all these things people do and buy for their Accords, and want to do it too, however I just dont have the money for some things. Thats what saving is for but I just wish I had more money. Sorry for my bitching yall. Just felt like ranting.

    I know exactly how you feel lol. I hesitate on buying $20 fog light setups. I even have an employee purchase program with Infinity (the audio company) and I can't bring myself to buy a set of Perfect Kappa components for like $165. As opposed to $300. It'll get better with time man
