Hey AZine, here is my progress thread. I was 17 years old when I bought my 2006 Anthracite Metallic 5AT/Navi. I saved most of my paychecks and paid her off fully in cash. She had 119k on the dash and was bone stock. At first I wasn't interested in mods, till I found AcuraZine a few months later.

At this point, I got into some trouble with the law (yay 18 :whyme: ) so I wasn't focused on spending money on my car.

I bought an AEM v2 cai from a member on here and installed it the next day with my friend in the Autozone parking lot. :smirk:

Bought a set of base red tails from a good friend of mine for $40, cut em open and tinted the diffuser. Forgot to tint turn signal area :tomato:

Also peeled the black dip off of my wheels.
Somewhere along the way I dropped my phone and cracked the camera lens, so my pics are blurry and fuzzy.

Opened up my headlights, painted the chrome housing semi gloss black, tinted the amber corner, and painted the HID ring red.
