today was pretty awesome. it was my first civic meet. i've only had my car a couple months or so , so far, lol. but yeah. everyone was just helping everyone do stuff. very cool to see. it was dope getting to see everyone in person today. damn jeff, ur car is just sick. the spray painted hub caps look really good. lol. and Lilasiian, monica i think?, ur car was very dope. i personally think 7thgen's look the best in rather black or white, and silver being next. too bad black is way too overplayed. so i say it's white then silver. lol. i was jealous of ur parada spec 2's. also, a Very big up to Alex (ak) for setting this whole thing up. jeez dude..u worked way too hard today. u desperately need a break, lol. but thanx a lot everyone for making today really dope. but it was sooooo damn HOT. ugh. anyway,

peacems

That shower felt soooooooooooooooo goooooooooodddddddd!!!!

Anyway, don't know where to start.

Much thanks to EVERYBODY who made it. I'm extremely happy that everything went nearly perfect and nobody was injured (except for me....cuts..haha)

Seriously, everybody worked really efficiently and without problems. You guys sure made one heck of a team out there despite the 100 degree weather. Also glad that no one left sad.... as long as you're happy it's all good

DIY'ers - Thanks A LOT from all the non-diy'ers and myself. Tech day wouldn't have been possible without your help.

Non-DIY'ers - Thank you for coming too. I hope you like your new mods and be sure to rethank your DIY'er.

We had about 25 cars or so (spread throughout the day 11am-7pm). It was awesome to see that more than half the people on the list attended. Rankers, you missed out!!!!!

Those who did their own headlights and stuff: Very happy to see that you've tried a DIY on your own. Please don't think that the DIYs off-limits. I was like you at one point...but 1 DIY got me rolling. I hope that it is the same way for you. Free knowledge is on this site, it's up to you to apply it. Good job on doing your own stuff, EVERYTHING LOOKED VERY CLEAN.
