2 Or should i get a stock eclipse bumper with a clean lip add a set of aftermarket side skirts that are pretty plain an straight and the blitz rear bumper?

Im repainting my colors in mind are mainly blue, green, or white.


Alright guys i was hesitant to post this because i know im going to get some hate but i gotta do it. I have thought about this too long. This has almost been a moral battle because i know that 2g talons are not common.

As you all know its almost winter and everyones working on there cars, my project is to clean up my body.

My car is my profile picture which doesnt look bad but up close im missing some things.

Passenger side sides skirt and my fender is some junk it does not line up. My paint blows because black shows everything and i have scratches and stone chips.

My personal opinion, im not crazy about the talon rear, not a fan of the tail lights an i wish the back bumper came down a hair lower. This has been a tough choice for me an now its game time i have to decide so help me out guys. ]]> Appearance/Interior/Exterior untouchablecc http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/appearance-interior-exterior/355091-clean-up-talon-add-body-kit.html http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/appearance-interior-exterior/355089-changing-my-dome-light-bulbs.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 03:49:01 GMT Hi everyone....

How do I get to the dome light bulbs in my '90 TSi?! I dont see any screws in the little panel (which houses the dome light and two reading lights). Does this just snap into the headliner? Can I just yank it out? I tried tugging on it a bit but I didn't want to end up breaking the thing.

I have a few burnt out bulbs in my dome light (how many are in there? Two? three?) and I would like to change them. I've never had interior lights in my talon and today I finally decided to stop being lazy and popped a fuse in there (I figured there would be another issue... not just a fuse :ohdamn: ) and everything works! I'm amazed at how much I missed having interior lights without even realizing it.

I can figure out how to get to all the other bulbs, but I'm having a heck of a time with the dome light. ]]> Appearance/Interior/Exterior GooeyGus http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/appearance-interior-exterior/355089-changing-my-dome-light-bulbs.html http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/appearance-interior-exterior/355076-how-get-past-shift-lock-key.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 01:34:07 GMT i looked but i cant find anything, but i want to put a manual shift knob on my auto for asthetics, but i cant due to the fact my car wont turn off with the button depressed, i need a way to disable that so i dont need it, brakeless shifting is what im after, any insight would be greatly appreciated i looked but i cant find anything, but i want to put a manual shift knob on my auto for asthetics, but i cant due to the fact my car wont turn off with the button depressed, i need a way to disable that so i dont need it, brakeless shifting is what im after, any insight would be greatly appreciated ]]> Appearance/Interior/Exterior slow gs http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/appearance-interior-exterior/355076-how-get-past-shift-lock-key.html http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/appearance-interior-exterior/355072-gt3-hood.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 01:15:57 GMT i saw this hood and i kinda like it.. looks like the ones on supras,...
