oem hood getting a coat of primer on one side before sanding because of imperfections :tumbleweed: prep work is most important kiddos.

and the fresh paint.. keep in mind, this was only the second coat of base and is missing 1 more base coat and 3 coats of clear.

You should be able to hit 250k. I'm at 96k right now ugh. I remember when my car hit 20k lol. I'm excited to see the assembled pics.

i didn't run through insurance so i paid $1800 out of pocket

This is almost exactly what I'm lookin' at right now,
I'm currently driving with a bent core support, I don't think I'm gonna drop the 1,800 in it though. I'm at 215k, I think I'm gonna drive it as is for a while (I just got a new job that pays more and has way more hours). Once I get more money saved up I'm probably going to purchase another lower mileage CG1 or a TL-S.

sounds like a good idea but for me if my motor decides to go out then that is just the reason i need to swap with a jdm h22a so it's all good
