It's pretty traditional not to post photos of you plate. Couple reasons: 1. Someone from the forum hates your guts and sees you on the road. Leaves your body in a ditch. 2. Someone reports a hit and run accident and give your plate and description.... etc.

Mostly paranoid stuff really. I've never heard of anyone actually having a problem, and let's face it - enough people on the road see your tags every day and could do the same. A lot of it is just a matter of privacy, I think.

I'll be daring and break the mold:

How do you like the aluminum pedals?

mds82 · 10-18-2005, 08:20 PM

the pedals are nice. there is a lot of rubber sticking out in the clutch and break wich gives is Awesome grip. i like them and most people notice them right away as well... the spoiler is this weekends project

Jay_328 · 10-19-2005, 01:11 AM

I'm confused, is that not your plate shown as your avatar?

Anyway, great looking car and shine!

arcrox · 10-19-2005, 02:37 AM

Yeah, we can still see your plate in the first pic and your avatar. Hit and run time!!

Hula-Hula · 10-19-2005, 02:50 AM

I love the looks of a zaino car!
Do you guys know if I can buy it in sweden?

davinet78 · 10-24-2005, 08:45 AM

maybe it's just the camera but the clear coat looks kind of soft like it's been washed to many times?

Do the pedals have good grip to them? i remember having aluminum pedals in my old civic and whenever it was raining out and i'd drive my car with wet shoes my feet would slip all over the pedals, but maybe BMW's rubber grips are better?

I notice you apply zaino in a linear style as compare to circular style, is there a noticable difference? I don't even know which way to use

Great explanation.

Just to add, it was common between honda/acura owners(highest risk of getting stripped/stolen).
Some theives look at the pics of highly modified cars and target them.
They get their license plate number and track it down, and steal/strip the vehicle.

Community like E90POST where most members are highly respective
and mature shouldn't really matter, but popular honda forums are
notorious for these kinds of stuff.
