    Thanks.

    Today if it doesn't rain, I'm gonna paint the wipers, and try to get to the window trim, and maybe the hood. I want to paint the hood "Chalk Board" it's paint Home Depot sells and you can write on the paint with chalk. I'm going to swap on the stock corner lights, and try to locate some Amber lenses.

      Well yesterday I raised the hood. Took the silencer out of the muffler, so it sounds somewhat better. I raised the hood an inch, and I located some amber corner lenses. I'll be painting the hood, weather stripping, and wipers tomorrow, swapping the corner lights in, and cleaning it. I'm supposedly picking up some strut tower bars also.

        Joe you must be a "Ricer" at heart. Lot of work and money for a Honda!

          I've owned Honda's all my life. Much more reliable than any other car I've owned

          Since I've owned it, I've only put about $275 into parts, not including the motor or maintenance.

          I'll be starting the block next week, I"m talking to my engine guy as we speak to set something up.

            K well I never started the build. I still have the motor sitting. Since then the car has been dropped, tinted, hood spacers, painted the hood, and has had two sets of wheels. It was stolen two weeks ago and I'm currently working on parts to get it back to normal. I'll ship the motor out when I get caught up again.

                The car was stolen from the front of my house, they used a coat hanger to open the door, broke my window visor, my steering column plastics, shields, and ignition cylinder. They live about a mile away and a block away from my buddy. They stalled it at a light at 3:30am and a cop pulled them over to find out it was stolen. It was recovered but it's not the same anymore, it has a ton of problems. Motor is in my closet still.

                      Yea there's $1k worth of damage. They said in their statement they were taking it to a chop shop in Detroit and are only going to pay half of the damages. I'm putting the full press on them in court.

                      But yes, I don't have a steering lock anymore, my ignition cylinder is aiming at the floor boards, my wiper stalk is broken and I have idle surge like crazy. They were definately beating on it, and it has 198k miles so it's not so stout anymore

                          They won't go to jail because it's over-full.

                          Here's what it looked like two days ago:






                          It is now on 15's and it'll be lower this weekend when I get time to adjust the coilovers. i'll see if I can get some better pictures.
