Exclamation Argh, anyone else have parts waiting for install?

This is sooo frustrating. I have WW sideskirts, Eibach Sportlines, SPC Camber kit, 17s with new tires, and Si seats all just waiting around to get installed. It is so frustrating to look at it all and not be able to install it yet. Anyone else have this problem, and what do you have laying around?

SIdeskirts-SHOULD be repainted, but now I am debating just putting them on with their scratches

Springs and camber kit- need help from a friend

Wheels and tires- snow can fall in May here in Colorado, and so I just want to wait til I am sure it is summer weather

Si seats- the seller rewelded the brackets to fit into an EK, and now I have to get them rewelded before I can put them in

I've had my Apexi WSII catback sitting in my office since January. I have to look at it everyday. I've been waiting for a guy in my office to help install, but we can't get our wives off our backs long enough to do it.

There's also a DC header, alternator underdrive pulley, and power steering loop just waiting. Hopefully one day soon...

Yea, it just takes patience. I was so frustrated when I put the SI seat in and realized it had been rewelded, and then had to put the stock seat back in.

Energy Suspension Motor Mount Bushings. The hardest thing I ever waited for was my turbo. It was sitting downstairs for like 3.5 weeks.

Pretty good. The motor shut off on me a few minutes ago. Im not sure why. My clutch is such a piece though. It started and drove fine right after that. I dunno. It drives very nicely otherwise, I just need a clutch. It slips so bad at 4500 on. thats really all I need to win a lot of races though, haha.

I may sell my car and buy a factory turbocharged one though, we'll see how things go. I just dont like spending this much cash on my car. at least i got a 25000 dollar civic. what a waste. I would part most my stuff out though. and probably drop a new lower mileage non turbod motor in here first. well see.

I've got koni yellows, front and rear camber kits, synthetic brake fluid, 17" enkei cdr-9's, hankook ventus 405's sitting at a friends shop. I am waiting for some down time so he cuts me a deal on the full install, and yes this sucks, but he also gets my parts cheap - for example these are really sweet tires, and I am paying 600 canadian fully installed, so I guess its worth it.

i got neuspeed sports springs, spc camber kit and 18s sitting taking space in my room. on friday i got components coming in, as well as another amp pretty soon. i haven't installed the springs and kit because everybody around town quoted me 400 or around there. Im going to do it with a couple buddies this weekend. the rims aren't going on til its really summer and no more rain. the components and 2nd amp wont go in until i can find a place to buy a Adire Shiva.

but ya it sucks looking at my 18's everyday after i've been wanting them for sooo long and they're not even on the car
