Thanks man! Slowly but surely

Checked out your FA thread too, that wheel/tire setup is sweet! What were the specs?

I'll check out the shifter bushings, thnx!

Look at how nice the rest of the bumper looked!!!





I digress, though and peeled and went back to step one





Purple powere'd the **** out of the bumper and its finally behaving. At this time , i went in the house and ordered a pizza




I came out and tried to take off the masking tape. HA JUST KIDDING ************ YOU CANT LET PLASTIDIP DRY BECAUSE THE ENTIRE THING COMES OFF

YOU SEE THE BLACK THING ON THE FLOOR? YEAH I HAD TO PEEL THE ENTIRE **** OFF AGIN

Flashpro came in yesterday, flashed one of the basic-girl preloaded tunes for an intake to the ecu

actually REALLY surprised at how much it DID change things lol

idle is a little higher and smoother, throttle input seems much more sensitive and responsive, revhang is almost gone (rpms actually drop shifting 1-2), power delivery overall seems more responsive and dat vtak @ 4k feels

The Hondata on these engines do wonders man. Imagine with full bolt ons and a tune it should be sitting almost at 200+whp comfortably.
