This is on the to do list... Was it scary sanding away at your headlights?

I installed a base Rsx sway on my EM2 tonight... this is just temporary for now. I want to get a better feel for a larger sway when I finally get my coilovers on. The ride is sweet! can't wait to get a 22mm one (from MaxT).
I must admit that this job got the best of me. PB Blaster def helped with stubborn endlinks. I hate alan wrench w/ box wrench applications.

don't worry, many sold theirs but are still in here
drop by from time to time

Mr.Entabulator

As far as the headlights go, you can wetsand them with 600 grit to knock off all the scratches and then 1200 grit to kill the 600 grit scratches and then clear coat your headlights. They will look brand new and never haze over again because you'll have a uv protected barrier. I threw some black base coat in my clear so I tinted mine ever so slightly.

Nah it wasn't bad....i was a little afraid they would come out effed up. The only thing i recommend is if your going to buy the turtle wax kit, get plastX too...the headlight polish they give you sucks. I was gonna do this
diy but couldnt find a high enough grit to do it.

I don't think so. The carfax was good and there's not enough to wear and tear on the car for that to be the case.

Brought the car in a shop for a buff and polish looks great. Then I drove her to the honda dealership and jumped in a 2012 si and brought that for a ride ahahahah.

I VHT'd my tails last night and bout a rear lip / side skirts, planning on putting those on soon

I know some of you dont like tinted tails but i really do and figured they would look good with my black / silver theme and my blacked out headlights. They look dark in the pic but the light shines through very easily, 2 coats of VHT and one coat of acrylic enamel, i wanted to keep my reverse lights but i was having too much trouble getting the shape so i just painted over them and surprisingly they still light things up well. Here they are:

Gloss black'ed my heat shield and cleaned my intake filter
Waiting for this to dry up to clear the front and back (no paint on inside, just clearing it)

Snapped the bottom bolt that holds the heat shield in place, it was too seized up.

Question now is:
Take the header out and drill out the bolt, then buy a new bolt? $1
Or
Buy a new header off ebay? $50

...Either way, I'm going to have to remove the header

Nice lights. I like tinted too but not that dark unless it's a black car. If you're bored, wanna take a night time shot of how the light looks going through the tint?

Lopes101

I can take a shot for you sometime soon. Ill put it in here so you can find it easy.


Washed, polished, vacuumed, armoralled, window cleaned the whole car today. She looked beautiful.

I painted my coilovers john deere green, they look brand new now and the colour is much nicer than tein green to be honest. I'm glad I didn't waste money on a custom tinted spray can.

Washed it and used Mother's cleaner wax. I didn't realize how "tan" my car had become. Nice and shiny white now.

MindBomber

I'll post up some pics tomorrow.. feelin lazy tonight

I found a diy of someone who polished their stock rear lcas, I might try that tomorrow, from a distance they look really nice.

DarkSouljur

I'll tell you right now that i'm getting a very good amount of light through them and at night you can't even tell that they're tinted. I'll take a night shot if you want, but i'm out of town till Saturday so u'd have to wait :P

CGaud

Cool. I have the PlastX on hand just looking for the time and a buddy with a buffer!

That makes me wanna clean the **** out of then slap a coat of paint on my coilovers.. Find a nice light metallic green and spray them down with that, then a coat or two of DupliColor's clear engine enamel to protect the paint

Impulse bought an Alpine iDA-X100 for $180... New it cost $399. Plus the dude had it on a 05 civic so he had the wiring harness with soldered connections. Perfect swap in! All manuals and original receipt for $463 included.

Now I have my Pioneer DEH-P3100UB sitting in my room... It WAS waiting to get installed, now I don't know what to do with it! Also have a radio wiring harness I ordered off ebay with it too..
