Alright you friggin decal haters,
I finally got rid of the JL Audio and NOS stickers, lol happy?

Also as an update, I never really showed my new Altezza grill I installed.
LED's removed from the front, and installed inside the grill, for when someone cuts me off at night :D

Cleaned the car yesterday, waxed it and tire shined.

Nope, after 2 weeks of straight rain, we're good for about a month of perfect weather

It's even hot right now lol

Your car is one of the nicest coupes I've seen. I knew it belonged to someone here when I saw it in the ricer thread, but I couldn't figure out who, LOL.

BTW, how much hp do you gain from the CF stickers? Alright, alright, I'll stop! Sorry.

You actually lose power. It's a small sacrifice for such a sweet sticker

Your car looks great, but it would look even better if you lowered it :)

He's right, I actually had to make a tough decision to add that extra .075 grams of weight to my car, and lose my slick aerodynamics
But it was well worth it

^Lol. Seeing as it's Civic nation here, I've actually never seen a white EM2 coupe around here. White cleans up nice if done right.

The NOS bottle is still inside the car somewhere :D the blue one :lol:.

when UR parents tell you they gonna get a new car for you, tell them you want to keep this and that you would not mind in getting another 2000 Si with the DOHC V-tec and double wishbone, and much slimmer weight :D Or a CRX :D

Lol, I never realized that,
Yeah, barely anyone has a white EM2
Especially not loaded with factory bumper gaurds and factory tint :)

It's noticeable when dirt gets on black, but it's a biatch for grime and gunk on white car, especially most everything stains it.
But thing about white is that, you can spot dirt on it like nothing

Just for that, I'm going to fill my entire car with NOS and take a picture XD

Lol, Nah
Since I wont be trading this car away, I think i'll be looking into a lower and a Type RS Lip :)
I love the SI and all, but I really want to only keep 1 car.


On a side note:
I had to drop off my dad at this one place today, and when he got in the car, he was like "WHOA THATS SMOOTH" when he opened the door
Hahaha

In the words of that mexican bartender(danny trejo) in the movie Anchorman.....

"Dam that dude cleans up good!"

Did you clay bar it? It looks like your beer would slide off if you set it on the hood<<<party foul

Yep, I claybar with Mothers

EVERYthing, and I mean EVERYTHING slides off my car haha

Wish I could show you guys how it shines, I'll find a good lighting dark place to shoot my car when I get the chance.

Because of my previous crappy experience with Meguiars tire foam, I had to remove all the gunk that it left on,
I actually removed each wheel, scrubbed it down with a nylon brush with dish washing detergent to remove the caked on grease, let it dry in the sun, then cleaned up the rest of the crap with bleche wite, wiped it off, then applied Turtle Wax Tire Gel with a foam tire applicator

Not really liking the results from the turtle wax, I will try Meguiars Gold class endurance tire gel next.

I think i'm getting bad results from turtle wax because of the tire foam I had before, it's sorta created a seal on the tires, making them water proof, and therefore non-absorbant

You should come down to Vegas and hook it up, Kenny :P
