hey chris, SCREW YOU! i miss my car 
i went to the shop yesterday and its just sitting there...
(other chris: they couldnt find the bracket, so once they find it they'll drop it off. they have around 12-13 major builds in the shop so they have working like crazy to move them out so they can start my build)

supraman: gotta find a 'friendly' state-authorized shop/station that does inspections.
then you give them some doughsey-dough (like 50$), and you pass. i'd say don't go to a free state place first and fail, cuz then they might be more hesitant to take you.
if you have (or know) a tuner, ask them who they recommend

i LOVE the interior with the painted panels. Looks so much more at home now than the woodgrain. I'd love to learn how to paint mine like that when i come thru to the burgh sooner or later 
Also, your headlights are definitely the sickest on this site!

OMG, just serviced the hell out of my acura, drives like a brand new car!
Changed the oil, changed the tranny fluid, flushed and changed the power steering fluid, and did a professional fuel system treatment. Car seriously drives like it's brand new, and shifts super smooth, it was shifting really rough until I changed the tranny fluid, love it. Well worth all the money and effort

The amount of time you've spent on it shows! That CL is looking PIMP! Cant wait to see it with rims. Chris is one of the lucky few who can keep the CL under wraps and not use it as a daily driver. Which gives you time to work on the subtle details and it def shows!

Looks sweet. I was thinking about painting the wood trim when a buddy of mine scratched it putting in the stereo... now that I know what it looks like, I'm going to have to get on that... What kind of paint did you use? Also, where did you get it? And how much?
And what's this upcoming meet I'm hearing about in PA? The only meet I saw in the upcoming meets thread was in Seatle... Let me know, I'm in...

Haven't installed them yet, they're sitting in a box, I'm holding off on the handles until I paint the car and get it ready for show, since I'm driving it all the time and they're the only set I've ever seen I don't wanna f them up.
I wish I had more time, if I had more time I would have a LOT more done to my car, most people don't realize there's a lot of stuff done to the car that you can't see
Thanks mang, I def can't wait to see it with rims either, the anticipation is killing me, glad someone appreciates the work I have put into it, I've spent many nights getting bitched at by my gf to come to bed while I'm workin in the garage.
Def don't have a lot of time, very few people understand that on this site. She def went out of commission for a while, but I also bought a house and had to paint it, repair it, move in, yada yada, not to mention watching 120 or so hockey games, and attending like 35 games. But yeah, I def put work into it when I could, still got tons to do, I work on it about once a week now, if I had more time I would def get more of those parts on, I got a LOT of winter projects planned, glad u guys like the interior, I def put a shitload of time into it
i dont think that he has alot of time on his hands, it took him a good while to get those headlights done. his car was pretty much a garage queen for almost a full yr. but he still got it done with his busy schedule, thats what i call dedication........now he just needs to get all his storage parts on the car too
