Finally installed the retros I bought from Monty months ago. Currently, I'm trying to decide whether I like them more with or without the eyelid covers.

Received my projectors and 6k hid bulbs today. Doing the budget retrofit and just looking at these so far I'm very please with them, especially for the price I paid. They seemed to have great reviews.

Thanks! I'm going to be ordering e46 shrouds and some rubber butyl. After this the grand total should be around $100. That's not including an hid kit because I already have one. If I wanted to use the shrouds it came with and reuse the glue this would be a very very cheap retrofit.

Appreciate it. We should. Maybe there are a few more people around here. I know they hold a couple meets near UNCC.

I put my front end back on for the first time after getting angry at my driveway. lol

Got my rad replaced under warranty from dealership since it was replaced less than a year ago. What upset me was they didn't replace the original hoses on the repair a year ago (car has like 200k on it) and didn't even offer. I guess they don't want mo money. Anyways about six months after original replacement my upper hose failed and a call to Honda advised that it's not under warranty so I did it myself. They charged me for lower hose last week. Labor was $40 but had &10 coupon for parts so I didn't make a big deal. They told me two motor mounts are jacked and another one and tranny mount (**** movie name?) was an issue. So gonna get parts and get er done in the drive way with buddies help. Labor cost is a pack of beer vs hundreds at dealership. Glad I have help and can learn from hims. Also mention was my oil filter seal or something but at like $300 and not a big issue that's gonna need to wait.

CL-S seats are finally on the way. Been talking to a guy in CT for almost a year…lol

Got the new low beam bulbs (Philips Crystal Vision Ultra). :chewie:

I was going to recommend the Crystal Visions to you until I saw that you already ordered it. I've had them on since Dec. 2012 and no problems with them whatsoever. They project a yellowish-white (more on the white scale) but I didn't expect an "extreme white xenon look" like they claim anyway. But definitely an upgrade over basic Sylvania's, in terms of durability and performance.

Great bulbs. I bought a set on a whim from Meijer for under $30 and didn’t expect much. But they were much better than Silverstars in every way. Best bulb for the buck imo. Mine were 4300k though, so decently white.

cleaned up my engine bay. degreaser, water, maguire's rubber and plastic cleaner/ conditioner.

Looks good Charles! I need to do this.
