That car is definately coming along. Definately in progress, but going somewhere nice.
Props to you for getting sponsored. I didn't even drive at 16!
The exterior looks really clean, and those seats are--Bride. 'nuff said.
Are you planning to fiberglass your door panels, or just leave them torn out?
Not my personal taste, but you must be able to feel that weight reduction when you accelerate.
Keep it up the good work, and PLEASE don't total your tC. I don't want to read another one of those threads.
Keep our cars on the road, man!

I doubt iKonXone paid $89 for any of his sponsors.
Anyone can pay $89 to get sponsored by crap companies that a majority of REAL tuners/showoffs would ever want on their ride.
Dunlop... Not the tire I would choose... but some people are desperate for a sponsorship/attention.
Actually, Dunlop might make a reasonable donut for when you flatten out your toyo's, kumho's, falken's or Hoosier's...which are better tires... But I think most of us know this.
I'd like to continue ripping CS for ya... but I'll save it for another thread
And the car on this thread, that white one... I'll predict it's demise to happen sooner than later.

teammighty, thats fine that YOU dont like dunlop tires. i never claimed they were top of the line. you also left out on major tire company that sells very nice tires... pirelli? maybe.... their Pzero Neros are amazing, and i am currently rolling on them (dunlops still waiting on arival).
as i said to others on this issue, lets see you pay the $89 on CS, and lets see if you can get the full sponsorships i did. i know you wont, because only 5 people for each HIN show get them
so lets see... i paided 89 for the following:
full set of tires
underglow and accessories
floor mats and pedals
bulbs
springs (your right... b&g suspension is a horrible company... )
graphics (i admit... not a big deal)
stoner car care (im sure you wouldnt dare use their products either)
so all in all, shut up, or lets see your ride. i get sick of people like you that have nothing but negative comments

Hahah I paid zero for a sponsored interior... that beats paying $89 for stickers, bulbs, tires, ugly heavy floormats ( SPONSORED FLOORMATS! ), underglow (No thank you), B&G over Tein or Bilstien, leda, H&R, Koni ( No comment ), Stoner products .. neat but I have a garage full of Meguiar's ( Thank's Meguiar's!)All the products offered on CarSponsorships are below the cut my friend.
I'm not hiding my car... Many have seen it and so can you. Just look dude.
Your HIN arguement would garner you many giggles on the west coast.
Oh and a side note. I owned a pretty hooked up MINI prior to the tC... without the $89 novice sponsorship course. Over $8k worth of goods were given to me for that ride. I kinda know what's up kid.

Taek, I love your ride so far... and it's given me a couple ideas to play around with. Try to keep the flow of your car uniform, as some of your parts seem to pull away from the tC's subtleness.
Keep up the work and I'm waiting to see the finished product!

nice 3rd brake light removale/ shaved hatch i think the look is hot but i also hope you dont plan on driving on the street without a 3rd brake light. I would try and integrate one into the plans.Almost 100% sure its illegal b/c i remember reading about how it was a govt mandate sometime in the early 90's. anyone can feel free to correct me. But now for some positives, totally digging what you and your tC are up to, keep it up.

ikonXone for being a mod you would think you wouldnt agrue about petty crap like this.
you brought up a dead topic just to say that?
here is all that needs to be said:
if you think my sponsors are fake, good for you, its your opinion
if you think they are real, good you you, its your opinion
if you have / dont have your own sponsors, no matter how you achieved them, good for you.
end of story... this thread isnt about sponsors, its about taeks tC...
so lets get back on topic.
and updates?
did you ever move your seat belts?
