Do you have a fix it list?

I know I do. and it's starting to get a little long...

1. C/V Joints
2. Right Tailight Leak
3. Trunk Carpet
4. Camber install
5. Wheel alignment
6. right horn button
7. Driver Seat motor
8. Passenger Window Motor
9. Low Gas light
10. CEL - Cyl 1 misfire?
11. Brakes feel weak...
12. side mirrors dont work

just sat down, and wrote this up not too long ago. I really want to just fix all the little things (and important things as well) before I keep modding my car (but its just so damn hard. )

What's on your lists?

hmmmm this thread should be fun

1. Tensioner (gonna get it fixed tomorrow)
2. ABS light been on for months(tomorrow hopefully too)
3. The scratched paint on my front bumper from the license plate that ive removed
4. broken cup holder, door wont close
5. -1º camber, not much wear on the back, but front tires went bald from my crazy driving
6. When i get a handful of $ fix the scratches and dings in the rims.. maybe refinish them to gloss black.
7. Dent everybody makes fun of when they see (hybrid) thats on the part in between my back window and my rear right window.

damn thats all i could think of, everything else i thought of wasnt a fix it, just another mod.
argando you beat me, lets see if anybody can top this guy.

1. Small gouge in driver door pannel.
2. Air flow baffel for cai.
3. Propper mounts for cai. (held by zip ties.
4. Passenger head light seal. (I discovered this after a trip through some flooding streets and two massive thunder storms.) On this one, do you really have to remove the bumper to remove the headlamp assembly? If so, what a fucking pain in the ass. Oh well, gives me a reason to persue black housings.

From what I have read, you definately have to remove the bumper to get the headlight out. I haven't seen any work arounds, as for the driver dor, pm sent.

not really a fix list as much as a I want but dont have the change yet. I dont want too much just a few things.

1. Paint! (If I do paint I want to remove the rear A emblem and my rear spoiler)
2. Suspension
3. Wheels/tires
4. Intake/Exhaust
5. HID/ clear corners
6. Tint and taillight tint
7. Possibly upgrage my premium CL with leather....I feel like the only one with an acura that doesnt have leather, especially with a premium model '
8. Possibly sound system/video

thats it for now, def. more but thats what could keep me happy for a while. Just gotta find a decent paint quote.

-SUV's
-Lifted or non lifted trucks
-Vans(kids)
-Bucket(dont care kind of ppl)
-Shopping carts..........etc.....you can make your own judgements, but these are mines
