thats good you're done
my gf just started her break today as well
(sucks our breaks fall on different weeks, but that gave me time to work for money and play/drive the del sol all last week)

she did just get a new car
99 sabb 93 turbo for under $4K
its not a honda but w/e
guess its better since I won't be "relied on"

anyways, she should be coming up sometime during her break
i told her i'm gonna get her a BOV and a boost controller LOL
and some mad tight EDM wheels

oh yea...its white too LOL
just like my del sol and my odyssey beater...

oh and that sucks about having to stay the weekend
whats holding you up? not flight plans right?

2 weeks ago on Friday before my break
I took a test in the morning (which is the only reason i really stayed)
and left right after skipping like 3 classes LOL

Was too eager to get home to the sol
and plus I didn't want to hit traffic/darkness later on getting out at 4pm instead of 10am

the round bolts can hold you up
i know they did for korrupt_ed...

luckily i didn't have to deal with them..

but on my panel now
they only came with holes instead of threads
so I had to use makeshift bolts and nuts to hold down
which takes a little more time to take off/put on
and also makes things a bit more loose and adjustable
so had to take time to align everything the best I could/the way I had it...

got something in the mail today
it was small enough to fit in my like 6X6X12 mail box
so its obv not that big or special...

not totally finished, the passenger side still needs adjusted but i like them overall. the passenger side lense got cracked cuz i stepped over it and the wire got snagged on my leg and lifted up and fell on the ground.

as u can see im in the process of shaving the reflectors.

lmk what u guys think

I like 'em!

The front view makes it look like they are kinda pointed at the ground and away from the front of the car if that makes any sense.

:edit: nevermind I see that the passenger one needs to be fixed.

look pretty "natural" there like they belong/made for it...

been dying to see what they would look like
and pleasantly surprised how good they look
and can't wait for some night shots (later maybe )

front end will be lookin real nice with shaved reflectors
and the lip you already got on

So I'm trying to figure out how to take these rear bezel pieces off, I'm going to go and have them repainted at the end of the month. I'm just curious if theres a guide on how to do so. I'm also looking to get my side mirrors repainted too. If you know of a guide or how to, I'd really appreciate the help, I don't want to dive into this and break anything.

not sure about the rear surround trim pieces
but would like to know as I would probably have to change the seals on mine soon...

but the mirrors are easy
1. take off handle
2. take off door panel
3. disconnect plugs/connectors
4. 3X 8mm bolts that hold the mirror on that need to be removed

reverse after done...

The 2 outer pieces have 2 screws on the sides when you pop the trunk open then you just have to play with it because clips hold them on as well.


ok I just got off work and I'm pretty mad.

I ordered my ground control bump stops last Thursday and paid for 3 day shipping.
I have yet to receive anything.

So i called Ground Control and they said they're gonna get shipped out today. The way he said it sounded like they completely forgot or something. I told him wtf, that's not cool. So he said he would do next day so I can get them on Monday.
http://www.ground-control-stor...II=10

But that doesn't do me jack **** because this weekend is the last of my spring break.

Thinking about getting a set from Advanced Auto/ Auto zone or O'Reilly Auto store

What do you guys think?
