Good, Bad, Both...
Well, I kinda am swaying back and forth about this one. I sold my bike on Friday. So, on one hand, I now have more money to dump into the Civic. On the other, I now don't have my beloved Telefonica to ride anymoer when I am getting stuff done to the Civic. So now, I have somewhat of a quandry. I'm gonna buy me something to drive daily, so I can park the Civic. I'm trying to decide which way to go. Should I go ahead and pay the Civic off, and then get something else to drive, or should I get the daily driver now. Either way, once I get the daily driver, I'm parking the Civic. What would you do in my situation?

Yeah, my intention, once I get the second car, is to make it a trailer bitch. I have some stuff on my car now, but I still have lots of stuff I haven't put on yet, as I was waiting till I could park it. I have the Tsunami rear roof wing, the flush mount WW spoiler, Mercedes Tails, rims, and some other stuff in storage, as I don't want them to get scratched, dinged, etc, before I get to show it. So, I put them in storage. My thinking for waiting is that, without buying a daily driver, I can pay it off in approximately 6 months or less, as opposed to the 14 payments I have left. Then, I could wait for about 3 weeks after that, and pay cash for the daily driver (I was looking into a CRX, or something of that sort). Then, I would only have insurance payments. I could then get the rims I really want and the Air Ride kit a whole lot quicker. That was just my initial thoughts when I sold the bike. The drive is maybe 5 miles to work.

I had seriously considered getting a bike or one of those motorized scooter things, but I'd have to get up earlier.

It's good. Fitament was great. Matched the body lines good. You should give them a call, the girl I told you to speak with no longer works there (I had to call them and get the Ground Designs logo that goes in the lower grille). I had to stay on their *** about it. Matter of fact, I called them daily for about 2 weeks till ther could get me a tracking number.

Yeah, the new girl i am dealing with is pretty helpful. The first mold they made, they messed up, so they are working on a new one. Either way, i am gonna wait until next winter to install it.
