I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Goodbye to the blue

the hose was frozen when i got the car back home, so all i couldn't wash the car really, just had to get the sand and salt off.


nah, no shaving the reflectors for me... i could do without the ebay corner lights i had to buy, but i guess they're not *that* bad, ehh...

i still have the oem bumper lenses, but i don't like the way amber reflectors look with clear corners... i'm still trying to hunt down some spray to get some DIY amber corners, but so far i've had no luck locally

Which spray did you use?

I'm not concerned with the sol being too jdm either.

It's called KRYLON STAINED GLASS PAINT. or something
I took like a 2000 grit sand paper...and scuffed it up...cleaned them off...and sprayed the shit out them to get my desired color. I kept sanding and spraying them. They were really smooth and clean when I was done. Not to hard. Send me yours...I'll do it for a 24 of beer:)
