Default Everyone Quit asking what you should do!!!!!

Everyone that keeps asking what color they should paint this, or what wheels they should buy or what kit is the best or blah blah blah.... STOP . That is the whole/ if not a LOT of the part of car customizing/ upgrading IMO.

Dont' take after everyone else/ Don't jump on the bandwagon. Use your own heads for pete's sake, Are you just doing this to be 'cool'? IF you are then your in this for the wrong reason. This isn't about trying to be cool, it's about partake-ing [sp?] in a great hobby. And for some it's much more. If you see something you like, GREAT! Use it, but try to run with it in a new direction. I know everyone likes to be praised / and get attention for their car. I do to. But dont' make that your only reason to do this.

I'm sorry to vent like this, but some of this stuff gets allmost as bad/ annoying as the this car with this setup, vs. this car with this setup , WHO WOULD WIN??
Just do it and follow what you really want to do.
Not everyone is gonna have the same opinion. Nor should they.

With personal opinion , there is NO RIGHT PERSON. It's all up to the individual.
Please, don't be scared. Do it. Make a descision YOURSELF. Go off the deep end and pick that color to repaint your car. Buy those wheel.. Just make sure , your descision is gonna suit your goal.

And that goal better not be , just to be cool.

I'm sorry if this really offended someone, but i'm just trying to make a point.

I guess that's how you seperate the men from the women though.
Now what is that supposed to mean?

my bad - it was in reference to talent - granted there are talented women out there in the auto customizing world, but the majority are men. There are exceptions to ANY type of stereotype. But stereotypes exist for a reason.

I'm sorry if I offended you and if you find yourself an exception to this stereotype.
awwwwww its ok. i get it more often than not. i mean when im with my bf and start talking to a guy about turbos and whatnot they are mostly like duuuude you know about that? its quite amusing. most ppl think im the stereotypical dumb blonde

but its ok i forgive u

if you were the only on left in this world and you had a fixed up car.. what would be the point if you couldnt show it off.. after all thats why 99.999...% of people fix up there car ..so they can gain respect and what ever else inbetween.. sure you can put your own ideas in but sometimes those ideas need a good opinion

**SILVERCIVICGRL**baby your not dumb , but as for her knowing alot about imports and hooking up cars, shes more into what im into. TURBOS!! engine swaps, and knowing the difference between honing a block versus gettting it decked out etc etc.CRANK LINE BORING, PORT AND polishing with a 3 angle valve job on the head, and what an fmu does which many people have not a slightest clue. AND YES alot of the people she hangs around are me < her boyfriend> , my friends who are cetified mechanics and have built up engines and even engine swap an sr20det in a s13. thats what we do here for fun. she has been to alot of car shows as well as mir, and scc events. yes she knows her way around appearances and what she likes in a car. as for the stereo type, that might be true in some senario, but this is HONDA-TECH. not club si or freakin honda-acura.net so generally the girls in here know what there talking about. SURPRISE!!!

What should I do questions are just plain stupid!!

Work Your car the way You want to.

Questions like:

"What wheels should I get"

"What color should I paint..."

are just plain frekin stupid. It's your car not everyone elses.
