The big sticker, is who built my motor and the owner has taught me so many things. I'd never have been where I am without his help. The small one is my battery switch sticker, which is required by nhra.

Update soon. I got my roll cage, just have to have it welded. I bought a soda blaster, and im going to strip the whole car and start with fresh metal. Want the car to be as light as possible

I also got a set of fender flares that are very aggresive, but not as large as the jojo or exospeed front ends are.

The teg is almost done and it's crunch time on this car.

I bought a cheap windshield remover from harbor freight yesterday and got the windshield and 1/4 glasses out without breaking them this morning!! Going to replace the back 3 windows with FAL, and the factory glass for the rest.

going to coat it with a rust preventative first, then it will be top coated with base/clear painted to match the rest of the car

Not crazy.. just hard to do something "different" thats not on every other honda. To achieve that these days you have to do labor intesive things because most of the scene has turned into who's bank account is bigger.

This didnt cost me anything but time
