right now, im hesitating to get red/clear tail....

and i sooo wanna re-paint my car....like...car, lip kits, re-powder coat rims and what not....

but at the same time, imi wondering if its going to be worth putting that much of money on our car.....

well, for me, i'm keeping this car until i can afford to buy a house. that's a long time from now, so that means this car is going to 2xx,xxx miles or more if it has to. so, definitely for me the investment is worth it.

Dents I can't remove, and I don't have a buffer... but if you give me touch-up paint I can definitley do that, and I can make the paint look 10x better with a clay, cleaner wax, polish, and wax combo. You'd be surprised lol.

when do you want to do it? how much are you going to charge me. i have touch up paint and touch up primer. i think i have touch up clearcoat too. i'd definitely be interested in what you can do for me.

I'll have to let you know next time I have a day off. My buddy who drives an RX8 lives down near you and he wants me to help him with his car too, maybe we could make a detail day out of it. Who knows. I'll let you know when I can though. :)

just got a call from my mechanic that the shop we were sending the rim to be repaired said my rim could not be repaired.
it's 1 wheel that has a warp on it. it doesn't leak air or vibrate, just not aesthetically pleasing.
kind of a downer because i just bought new tires for 18 inch rims, otherwise i would consider picking up a new set of 17s.

as of now, the Nexen 225s are going on the car nevertheless, and the wheel is just going to have to be replaced with the same one.
hard part is looking for a shop that sells that rim.

pending finding a repair shop for the rim i'm adding Goodridge SS Brake lines.
item code 20003 for any I4 accords with rear drum brakes and no ABS.
