Since i dont have an Si badge to hold onto from it, I think I may keep it as a momento. Lame, I know...btw, how much do you want for that grille?
I need to find a place to keep the car while I strip it for the part-out. Once I do its getting tore down. And Im buying something not a honda. lol
PM sentWant PM too... or you could post it somewhere else too.
lol understandable. let me know if you decide to get rid of it. any idea what the next car is gonna be?
nice, my next car will have greater than 4cylinders (if its a project car, that is)
i vote ls2 swap and the streetbike
i want details too.. should make a thread in the non-existent forum..
sent you a PM, and im going to start a thread in a sec since so many people have asked. lol
lol, why is that a facepalm? I've been thinking of selling the car for a few months now. It just isn't practical to have two cars while going to school. Tuition is going up by 11-15% next year alone.
im not just letting the car go to any buyer, its to a friend of mine who will take care of it just as I did.
I'm looking in to the future. $6k now to ensure my education which will lead to $60k+ salary job is well worth it in my eyes.I dont owe anything on either of my vehicles. I will likely keep the Accord and drive it into the ground, unless I can find something that gets far better MPG, is a 5 speed, and in decent shape.
the Civic will be getting a re tune sometime in the near future, if I can find someone to do it. it'll likely be more of a "detune" to ensure longevity.
id be scared shitless to wetsand on OEM paint.. id start with 2500 grit or higher if you do wetsand lol
maybe even just buff the car with rubbing compound and a fairly aggressive pad, that might help to dull down some of the factory orange peel.
There isn't much peel TBH. It just bugs me because this car seems like it should have been wets anded at the factory, much like the RL.
If I do wind up wet sanding, it'll be 2500 or higher. I've talked to a few folks who have wet sanded recent Hondas and they say there's plenty of clear on the new cars. I'll probably try rubbing compound first just to see. I'm really scared to wet sand -- I've put it off for months now out of fear.
