i didnt get the headlights done yet. lol. forgot my tools at my house. im at my g/f house visiting. so ill get those done this weekend. detailed the car tho. and i have to say, i LOVE Turtle Wax. used the compound and swirl and scratch remover
after i blackhouse the headlights and install the lip this weekend, ill do a proper shoot thats not a cell pic. lol.

Ahh, I remember when my car looked exactly like that but without the pinstripe. That needs to go.
Your paint looks nice though. Still going with the EZ Streets?

Lol. It needs another wash now since most, if not all, the pollen is gone. But that'll get done next week tho.
As far as suspension. I might just settle for the Type Ones. I've been finding them for $588 shipped.

Been more than a month since i posted in here. Dag. Well not much to update. Trying to decide on wheels. Decided to go to 17s but not sure what width and offset to go for. Looking at some now that are 17x8s. Might be the right size for me. Idk.
Suspension: decided to go with Type Ones unless i find another full coilover set up for cheap. Ill be buying some lowering springs for the time being tho. Just to get the wheel gap to a minimum and calm my mind. Lol. Will start buying other suspension items next month. Starting with an '04 TL RSB. And then the camber kit. Beginning of august ill be buying new ball joints. Buy then ill have money to get the Type Ones.
Brakes: been looking around for different braking ideas. Looking to see about an OEM BBK set up. I know when i had my '92 accord the OEM BBK set up i had on there was from the '94 Acura Vigor. They had 11.1in rotors compaired to the CB7's 10.2. Along with a single piston caliper but had a biggee piston as well. So ill continue to look around for that.
Exterior: ill be going with a WW front lip. Ive seen what they look like and i love them. More defined than the Mugen type(ebay) one i have. Need to figure out how to get my windows tinted as well. Ive tried doing it before and failed. Don't wanna wastes anymore tint. Lol.
