You should just upgrade to the new Droid Turbo instead.

I'm pretty sure its not gonna stick but I guess it may fall. It will look cute with all the leaves on the trees at the same time.

Yea I'm overreacting. AccuWeather doesn't show any snow right now, so its probably not going to be much of anything. I'll be there in the FRS, only because I didn't install the suspension on the wagon yet. I've only had the parts since mid-April

New droid is showing up tomorrow. $99 and they ship it overnight which is cool. Just saw a commercial about the droid turbo and how it can charge 8 hrs worth of battery life in 15 minutes but I bet that bitch would have been $600 if I bought it today.

Morgan I dont think you'll have any problems, I think this trip will be well worth it.
My punch list is still long, just small shit but probably shorter than Jason's considering hes bringing 2 cars.
BTW I have a whole bottle minus an application or two of Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant delivers a deep, wet, liquid shimmer unlike anything you can imagine. ill bring it to the show if any of you guys want it, its useless now that im wrapped.
Thats good news Eric, Ive considered going back to the droid, just need to make sure i can find an adapter for my headunit thats Ipod ready

I have zero intentions of washing the FRS. Its parking outside waaaaay in the back.
But I do want to pick your brain about the vinyl, Ben.

That Picture above says my reaction, too the tee.
I lowered it 3" in the rear, and its perfect.
Lowered it 2.5" in the front, anddddd the wheel kisses the fender.
While I would love to be able to drive at that height, I cant move the car or turn the wheel.
I had a HELL of a time trying to get it off jack stands. It was insane.
So now I am up early, to raise the car about an 3/4 of an inch, and I am going to go get my fenders rolled.
I will not post pictures until after the final bugs are tweaked on it.
You all should come Saturday to taco Macs in the University for the Acura Crew After Party. Then you can see it. In person.

Wheels for the IS-F are off and cleaned and the TSX has been washed the first time now. Now to start detailing the engine bay and interior before a second wwah and wax. Still have to wash the F as well. Think I might go crazy HIN style tomorrow and pull a wheel.
Anyone have a plastic tire stand I could borrow? Mine are in PA.

Stephen, I can't say ive ever been in a situation where ive seen my car lowered and on a new set of wheels all at one time. That must be a world of mind blown. I'm glad to hear everything went smooth and you're loving the new look.

Been studying the Doppler and I think this system is moving a little faster than what the forecast is saying. It looks like it could move in and out over the night and if we get lucky it will be dry by the time we hit the road to head to the arena.

That's what I saw about a hour ago. Looks like the rain is going to start tonight and let up around 7am. There may be a few stray showers throughout the day though.

Man I just looked at it again and it looks weak! The moisture is dissipating. Maybe it will do what the system did that came through on wednesday when NOT SHITTT happened.

That'll be sweet. The FRS doesn't work so well in snow and ice.

Aired Out TLS
I see everyone is stoked about the show this weekend.
As for me, I would probably be just getting out of work after doing a 12 hour shift at 6am.
And then have to go back at 6pm. If I find the strength to maybe go check out the show I will go.
But if I miss this, take some nice pictures for me guys and have lots of fun.

bee you should just rest man, honestly i had a few of those 10+ hour shift back to back and it really sucks. any attempt to have fun between those shift is a backfire when you got to be back at work in a couple of hours. maybe if time permits go to the uncc meets to have some car fun on sunday. ill probably be there for a bit till i head back home.
as for the rest of you guy, how the weather in charlotte right now? it look gloomy here in greensboro.

It was nice and sunny here in VA, up until about twenty minutes ago. I was hoping to leave at 2, but then got dragged into a meeting.

Baa, no worries if you are too tired to make it to the meet. I will try and get some photos for you.
Max, still shadows on the ground.
Morgan, have a safe trip. See you tomorrow.

AND...
You have NO idea. Like I naturally just smile now at my car.
When I walk away, I look back like 10 times.
When I am home, I look out the window.
When I am not by a window, I look at the pictures on my phone...
I am still in awe that I finally did it!
