Agreed with steve, these are everywhere here. I see at least 10 a day lately it seems. Most driven by 20-something chicks.


I make sure to ricer fly-by them when possible, letting off just as my hood reaches their window, so as to let them hear the BOV that they don't have :)
 
:lol:

if you see any velosters with ROUND reflectors on the rear flares versus the trapezoid shaped ones i have, its a turbo model. depending on the package (base turbo or ultimate), they may or may not have the turbo badge, body matched spoiler, and dual round exhaust tips.

Ive only seen a couple of these in person, the look has grown on me some from when i first saw pictures a while back. I saw a white one yesterday that looked real sharp, i think it was the turbo.
 
took this in philly over the weekend in front of pat's steaks. yes i know, i'm away from the curb but there was a bunch of people standing there... and i wanted cheesesteak.

God I want to go there so badly.

I remember in Fresh Prince of Bel Air he used to go back to Philly and get cheese steaks and he'd be like you know they're good when they're so greasy you can see through the bag.
 
So, what was this talk about getting rid of the chrome exhaust tips?
 
the tips get really dirty quick, but this was apparently expected and hyundai coated them in something so that when they get dirty you can just hose them off and they get clean. i'll probably upgrade to a VT oem catback in the near future so i'll be changing out the rear valence to accommodate the new tips. on a VT the dual pipe section is alot closer to the outlet so the tips do not get dirty. i dont understand why hyundai didn't just add 1 inch onto the end of the dual pipe section to keep them from getting dirty.

What did they rape you for that? my place is pretty good. $39 bucks and they top off all the other fluids and what not.

Only way to keep the warranty.

I don't miss the M's $179 oil changes, that's for sure.
 
let me rephrase that. i PERSONALLY won't be doing the services on the car. the dealer will!
 
ah, ok, good. Yeah, just bring it in. at least for the first couple years until you void it on your own accord by boosting it :D
 
so updates?

got a universal catch can... because GDI.

permatex'd the screens onto the barbs and used teflon tape for a good seal.

stainless steel wool i added. i'm being advised that it is too much... i used 3 "pads" i may remove one before i install it.

mid last month kristen covered the whole back of the car with sunblock spray. that turned into really really bad stuff for the paint :( today i got the whole car cut and buffed proper. the dealership is going to pick up the cost since the simoniz coating i had put on the car was pretty much useless. A1 did a stellar job, it looks nicer today than the day i brought her home.
