Rep Power: 0 I'm Dumping Money...
well ... ive only had my civic since june 05 ... and its seen its better day.. was a really nice car when i first got it and it went downhill ... after hitting the car wash building ( yes i hit a building but the attendant was walking from another bay as i was pulling out and i scraped my drivers fender on it ) .. gettin that fixed and getting hit and run 2 days later... yes 2 days later.. on the same fricken fender that just got fixed!!! i lost it there...
then after the other hit and run on the trunk lid... some ***** in an f350 backed into my car and kept goin...
after all that and the few minor dents its got from normal stuff ... shes getting fixed... i cant wait...
i dropped it off at milo gordon honda in lawton oklahoma today .. and its got a 3800 repair bill .. also getting the front plate thing shaved ..im paying for this to get fixed because the car has sentimental value to me .. and it will always get fixed until it gets totaled beyond repair ..
but its akward getting my car fixed.. i mean ya it had damage on it and all but going to get it fixed means its going to blend in with the others ... its not unique no more.. i mean its going to be weird not seeing my metal fender that all my friends signed when i left ohio to come to oklahoma for the Air Force... it was like my cars cast you know.. everyone signed it with best wishes , and everything.. o well .. that fender is being cleared and getting hung up because of all the love that was put on the fender..
after getting it fixed im dropping a k20 in ... i sold my k24 swap i had because i couldnt afford to keep it in storage any longer and it was just chilling there.. i sold the swap to a guy who really needed a motor for his crv ... and hes been a helluva guy to me and i had the motor just sitting there collecting dust.. now he has a fresh motor in his crv , ive got the cash to fix my car so it worked out for both of us..
but im going k20 ,6spd , keeping my elegante by tyc black projectors , 04 tails , and rear bumper , hfp sides and dont know for a front lip ...
shes getting the attention she needed and i cant wait.. work should be done by december 20 they said.. because of some of the parts they needed and the damage to the area... its getting a Koyo radiator because mines sprung a small leak , the honda dealer didnt have one and if i furnished one they would install it .. so i got one..
but hopefully when i get done ill post pics ..

Rep Power: 287 covering your car everywhere you go, kinda pisses people off. It would actually make ppl want to mess up your car more when you cover it in public. Well thats what i think and tahts how it is over here where i'm from.
