its really stupid, but i must have left the ****in door unlocked. I lock the damn thing every time because i press the button twice so I can hear the horn(yes factory, I need to upgrade). The one time i dont, they get my ****. Maybe someone has been checkin my doors or something. idk, unless they got in some other way and I didnt hear my alarm, which Im sure I would have. They could have got my paycheck from work too b/c it was in my glovebox and they put a hole through it....wtf? I already had a guess it was this guy from work, so idk if that gives me more reason to think its him or not.

Thats smart (at work) . I have the samething, with the stock keyless. I need to upgrade, but just dont have the money. Put a hole through it? The pay check?

yeah, whoever the hell it was pushed a hole through the middle of my paycheck....it would have to definitely be someone i know to do that b/c any other person probably would have taken it. Thats why I think it may have been the guy at work. He may have figured he couldnt do anything with it, so he tried to mess it up just so I might have to go through the hassle of getting another one written out at work. (even though I still was able to deposit the **** today)

I stayed at the lake for a little while while you went to Joe's, then I left for about 10. Sorry about that. I was getten pretty tired. It was good to meet all of you there. It took long enough for the "good" rides to get out there though. But it was a fun experience. We'll have to plan the next meet for the summer, or earlier. Spring break maybe. Maybe andy and the rest can join us that couldnt be there. The ride home was ok? No problems then?

Not sure when I'll be coming back....maybe sometime this summer. I'll have to see when my schedule opens up for some time off. I really need to make a trip back and maybe this time the meet will actually happen.

How was everyone's christmas? My passenger rear shock is blown. My dad has my car and took it to honda today. The shocks are under warrenty, so all they have to do is replace it. Other than that, the car looks good with the drop. I got 3 remote controled cars (one 7th gen from walmart, a xmods rsx, and a one of the knock off xmods from toys~r~us), some clothes, a model civic, some car cleaners, and money.

yeah my shocks are hurting too. some tokico illumina shocks would be nice. all you have to do is switch back to stock springs to get them to replace them. cheat the system.

The shock was blown before the springs were installed. My dad took it to honda after the drop and talked to them. They didnt have the part in stock, but ordered it and will be here friday or saturday. They are honoring the warrenty, so no sweating there. I love how the car sits now.

I finally got the plastic welder and started to work on my car on saturday. The bumper is pp. It was the green rod that could stay on the bumper, I tried the white abs one, but it wouldnt stay sticking. I have a bumper repair kit coming from napa today and I will use it to strengthen the hole from the back. All that is left is sand it down to smooth it and start painting.

Sweet ride wes. I always wanted to get a nitro car. Well, if you wait pasiently, the turbo god will be gracious to you. I'm thinking turbo for my car. My dad is really into the idea of it. All we have to do is start saving and maybe I'll have a turbo coming too.

Squirrel- What grit of sand paper do you recommend? A fine grit should do it, right?

I'll remember that squirrel. It came out pretty good, or at least I think it did because its my first time. Its a little uneven, but its lined up pretty good. Should I use a bondo or something to fill in everything and then sand it down? I mean its not totally bad, just to even the bumper out to make it look like nothing happened to the bumper. Thanx squirrel, you've been a help. Here's something for the trouble
