How 'bout them Gators?

Yeah, I am a Gator fan whether you know it or not. My brother and sister both go to University of Florida and I guess it kind of grew onto me to become a fan of the gators. What do you guys think about getting a gator license plate or a gator head sticker on your back windshield?

A Desire for all Teens

How many of you out there want a car of your own that you can drive whenever you want? How many of you want to be able to have a car that is actually yours and not your parents? I bet there are a ton of you out there because I know when I got mine it was one of the most exciting days of my life. What are your thoughts about being able to get this prized possession of your own? Discuss some suggestions about what is the best way to convince your parents to get you what you really want, a car.

Tire Pressure

My tire pressure light came on in my car and I'm not sure what from. My car is fairly new and I don't think the light should be on. I plan on taking it to car shop, but I hope it isn't going to cost me a ton of money. I'm wondering if my car should be under warranty for this? If not, can someone give me a price range on this? Should this be something to worry about?

Mirror Issue

I have a friend that is having some trouble with his mirrors and I am trying to help him get them fixed. The problem is that he cannot adjust them at all. Does anyone know the price range this will cost him? Also, where is the best place for this type of job to be performed?

Sound System

I have a question that I would like someone to clarify for me. The question is: Is a sound system really worth it? However, there is a couple things I would like to explain before you answer that question for me. I don't know if this is a rumor or not, but people have been saying that a sound system is really not worth it if you listen to rock and it only really enhances the sound if you listen to rap. Can anyone clarify if this is a rumor or not? If it is, what is the price range for a good sound system? Also the brand would also be very helpful.

Neons

I have been doing some research on finding a minor accessory to add to a car and I have landed on a conclusion. Purchasing a pair of neons for the inside of your car is a very interesting accessory that will not cost you more than 40 dollars. The neons will shine off a red, blue, or green glow under your seats inside the car, depending on what color you decide to purchase. These lights will add a cool glow effect to the inside of your car and will fascinate any passengers you decide to give a ride to. However, these neons are not really legal, so you have to be careful when driving through areas with cops. I still think they are a great accessory to add to your car if you are only willing to spend a small amount of money. They also have a great warranty and last forever.

Blow Off Valve

Does anyone have any thoughts about getting a blow off valve? I have heard that it will void my warranty and also a turbo is required. A turbo can get pretty pricey so I don't know if getting a blow off valve is going to happen anytime soon. I would really like to invest money into getting one because of the effects it brings to your car. I would recommend that any person who has a turbo or that is planning on purchasing one to also get a blow off valve as well. It will definitely be worth your money of a couple hundred dollars extra for the blow off valve. If you happen to get one, get back to me on how you like it performance-wise.

Blackout Tail Lights?

What do you guys think of blacking out the tail lights of an Acura RSX Type S. I have had thoughts that it wouldn't look too great and I was planning on leaving it, but then again, you never really know what it will look like. Does anyone have any suggestions about this situation? If you have seen this done to an Acura RSX Type S. Let me know. Thanks

Window Tinting

Window tinting is a great way to bring out a better appearance for your car. I have noticed that tinting the windows of your car is very popular. I am interested in tinting mine so that it will look awesome. Can anyone suggest a place to get this done and suggest a price range for this task to be complete?

Airbag Sensor

I was driving and realized that my airbag sensor light appeared. I decided to take it into the shop to get it fixed and a couple weeks later it appeared on again. Therefore, I took it in again to get looked at. Believe it or not it came on a third time. So, I just took it in today to get it fixed again. I really hope its only a problem with the sensor light; therefore, it would be an easy problem to fix. Anyone have any thoughts about this?

Clutch

I have been wondering how often do you have to replace the clutch on your car? Does it merely depend on how well you take care of it? If it does I should be fine because it doesn't take a genius to know not to ride on the clutch. I am not having problems with mine, but if I do in the future does anyone know a good place to purchase one and what the price range is?

Is an Exhaust really Worth it?

That is a question that is really haunting me ever since I got my car. Is it really worth it to invest a couple hundred to maybe a thousand dollars in an exhaust system? To be honest, I am quite impressed with mine. It seems to have a nice sound even though it is a stock 2006 Acura RSX Type S exhaust. I was planning on just leaving the one that I have on. What do you guys think? Here is a link to the one that I was planning on looking at.

HIDs

So, I have heard from a couple friends of mine who have HIDs (High intensity discharge) lights that they were a great upgrade to a car. I have realized that the lights that my car has are mediocre and have thought about getting these HIDs. Anyone have any suggestions or thoughts about getting a pair of these lights?
