Gettin to that time of year.....

Well guys we are slowly gettin to that time of year.... Spring that is and I just wanted to see when everyone is deciding to put their cars back together? I am certainly getting the itch to do so but I think I am gonna wait til the end of the month to be safe. Anyone already started....

I installed a rear upper strut bar last Sunday. I bought a AEM V2, some yellow Egay oem fogs, RSX Rear Sway, Neuspeed upper front strut bar, Rims (same as last year), all the engine dress up pieces, and I also picked up a Greddy Sp2 catback for my Lx supposedly its made for an american Lx which is a bit longer? Thats what I was told so I gotta get the mid pipe extended a bit at a stainless exhaust shop. I dont think i can wait much longer, exhaust next friday, waitin for fogs to come, but everything else will be goin on throughout next week and ill wait for rims till end of month. After next mid week temperature is on the rise for SW Ontario. Good lists people!!!

you guys are SISSY! i've been rollin' on 17's all winter and they still look brand new, not a single ding or chip or rust or anything. i do take my car to the pressure washer at least once a week though. just last week i switched back to 18's. snow can't hurt your wheels and with so little salt on the roads your rims will be fine. the only problem is that if you're running ultra high performance z-rated tires (eg. yoko avs) then you might slide around a bit if it's icey out. i run all season falken 512's on my 17's and even on the snow days i was gripping just fine with them.

as for the little accessories like cf hoods, lip kits, bodykits, intakes or whatever...i personally wouldn't go through the trouble to take them off especially a lip kit or bodykit. what a hassle! if there's a lot of snow and you're ride is kissing the gorund then take the bus, call a friend or use your mom's car LOL!

Also gotta take car in for exhaust, guy didnt leave enough room for exhaust to expand when hot so it hits the floor once and a while, i might try bending the hangers down a bit on the mid pipe?!
