^ not unless you state everything in your insurance?
if you claim that you have this mod and that mod before a crash or theft etc
then its not like they can not pay you?
oh and i thought danjoys reasoning was correct too

hmmm... my friend got an aftermarket bodykit on his car when he got accident last time, not his fault, NRMA doesnt care and give him a new one! So as long as its not your fault, I think Insurance company wont care...
That's right, if it's not your fault then your insurance company is cool about it because they are getting the money from the other person's insurance company.Quote:

Is that held using the existing plastic backing thing?
Looks really clean- I suppose u had a new bumper and they just drilled in the plates on the side instead?
Only thing which I realised is that without the plates in the centre at the point, it looks kinda funny (or just different).
yeah i got them to leave the original plastic bit behind.Quote:

have u got windows tints already from honda??i got a quote from a guy to tint on top of the stock honda tint for 250 and that will reduce it down to about 5%...which is DARK!!!!!and with lifetime warranty yo
actually my auto electrician gave me a number of a guy who does nissan dealership tints but...like...he also does it privatly for a good price too all i know is that his name is Evan and his numba is 0418667260...and i think my auto electrician said to mention his name so just say big mike vance gave u the info......furthermore...how bout that vtec!?
install done by Tim and myself.
Alpine CDE-9882Ri Headunit
Alpine MRP-M650 V-Power Amp
Alpine SBR-S122V 12 inch Type R SUB in original box
Angle brackets mounted around the Sub to avoid moment (as those non slip mats dont do the job)
(i think it makes it legal now as i heard RTA rules say the sub needs to be mounted to the car)
might be getting type r splits soon..
Lets see what you guys think.

Nice setup nny911 =)
I just bought a type R 12" and PDX 1.600 amp myself, i still need a HU but that will be next =)
i decided not to get my bumper fix...pfft 200 dollars i can spend on windows tint..nd its not that noticeable anywae...so, CRUISE!!!!!!!!!when when when???bbq this time yo and bring ur partner along aswelll
had to cut out some of the plastic guard liners because atm my tyres scrub slightly with the new 18"s

frost d.. have you connected up the amp and sub? to the stock head unit?.
how does it sound?
if you havnt connected it up because u havnt got a new head unit.. wasnt the smart move to buy the head unit first??
so this time, we have a bit confussion.Quote:

Sounds good but i think if i had a head unit it will sound better.
I think its pumping at 50% potential right now.... dont get my wrong my car still shakes but still i think it has more potential as i put it in my cousin's car and it pumps.... but then again he has type r and s splits.
OMG..:thumbsup: you dare to looks different :D

thanks mate.. but i dont understand what u mean by long plate number base?
most new alpine headunits are steering wheel compatible, furthermore alpine pwns...and on that note, alpine ftw
For the steerign wheel controls to work with the aplines you need a PAC controller mine uses PAC -SWIJACK i think its 3 wires you have to wire in and a resistor to make all work i put one in mine pm me if you need parts/help with install
for european number plate need longer plate base, like merc/bmw.Quote:

i guess the rta finally figured it was too big for the front
oh hai nick got his car back, looking sweet man.
i know that theres a kenwood deck that u can plug and play with steering wheel control
but IMO kenwood deck looks ugly!!!ALPINE FTW~!~
thanks bro.. cant wait for next cruiseQuote:
