I had Denso Iridium plugs. They lasted a long time but did not last forever. I reverted to regular over the counter plugs. Though they do not last as long, it's better to have new cheap plugs all the time compared to a single set for a long time. With Iridium's, since they last longer, inspecting and adjusting the gap becomes more important over time. I had not checked my gaps for over a year, when I removed the plugs I was surprised by the amount of material that had worn off of the ground post. The gaps were huge.

Thanks man! It's actually really dirty right now. I've been working on my other car so the Civic is just parked gathering dust.

This is not stock but used a so called Water Transfer Printing. You can find videos about the process here: http://www.youtube.com/results?searc...+printing&aq=f

My friend and ex gf came over and helped me sand the hubcaps, put on a roof rack that I picked up. My dad's using it right now to haul a ladder around but it'll be mine come winter time for snowboards

The roof rack is off a 89 Cadillac Deville and brackets didn't fit at all, so I made them fit by bending them to the door frame. More pics tomorrow

Here's pics of the painted bumper, I'm very satisfied with how it came out. I still have more than enough paint to do my sideskirts, front bumper, and whatever else needs painted.

I found 2 runs because the freaking gun was LEAKING FROM THE CUP, I figured out that I should have wrapped the threads with tape first. Otherwise paint is nice and smooth. I didn't sand the rear bumper at all, just prime and paint. Front bumper I'm gonna be more careful on
