Default DA9DAD's photo Shoot

NEW PICS JUST ADDED, see below

Okay so I thought I'd share some pics with all of ya. This is not a big balla build.
I've done some minor mods and DIY's and a lot of OEM work just to bring it back to a nice daily.

The work I've done
replaced timing belt, along with AC and H2O pump belt
Valve cover gasket
replaced front motor mount
replaced radiator
replaced the stock rotors with Cross Drilled/Slotted Brembos front and back.
PBR metal master pads
Stock rear struts and EG AGX front struts
Omni Power sleeves
Omni Power rear non-adj. camber kit
Replaced Magnaflow muffler with a more DA9DAD muffler so you can't hear me.
Painted said muffler with a flat black engine paint so that it blends in with the body and allows the Chrome tip to stand out.
Fixed the Dumb *** Integra leak from the cowl on the passenger side.
removed wiper blades for summer driving
removed all mud guards..just because. Yes, I'm keeping them.
installed my SONY MP3 stereo and Pioneer 6.5" 2way speakers.

DIY of the DA
I put in some 95 Odyssey turn signal amber cones into my turn signals. The lenses are opaque right now and need to be sanded down so that I can add a couple coats of clear arcrlyic...1 off task...not major but its my own idea.

Bought a bunch of JDM stickers
Bought a set and installed JDM headlights..niiiiice touch
Bought but haven't installed JDM Amber side markers....waiting for a friend to come and help me.

Wish I had an amp and sub for that THUMP sound...

Let me know if you think if I should bring it down a lil more...I don't want to slam it as its my daily and the road in SO CAL suck.
*
I'm thinkin of selling my EG front strut set up so if your interested let me know. I have a set of KYB AGX's which are in very good condition I'm just wanting to get a different strut set up soon. I'm keeping my Omni Power coil over sleeves, so don't ask.

thanks for the kind responses everyone.

Hope to bring her down an inch or 2 for a better shoot. I am also wanting to get 2 things done
Aux Fog Lights at the front corners
JDM Side Markers..

Just bought a GS-R steering wheel so I will be throwing that on pretty soon.

Just waxed her up and lowered it a lil bit. Can't go too low as I live in an area with deep drive way's, my front end really hits hard.
