- custom cat back (exhaust has a hole in it anyway, so why not )
-slight drop
-Paint wheels bronze (Can't decide if i should keep on these wheels or put on my 3 stockers)
-CAI (obviously)
-sway bars
-sway bar end links
-short shifter (maybe)
70durometer motor mount

That's a good start, I wonder how it will look with the 3 stockers. And you gotta drop it to where the tire meets the fender at least, or it looks like it lol.

lol, that money went fast! I am going to get the mazdaspeed springs, they drop it a bit, not low enough for me to need a camber kit, but it will look a lot better.

lookie what I stumbled across last night

http://worcester.craigslist.org/pts/1810171784.html

That thing still has the brand new ingalls camber kit on it, if anyone's in the area, scoop up my old baby, but be warned, the bitch who now owns it is f*cking insane.

Damn I would not even be able to look at my car in that condition! Well I've already decided I'm keeping mine "until death do us part" as it's paid for and not my daily driver.

Okay, i decided I'm buying my old car back for the camber kit and wheels/tires. I just emailed the crazy woman, hopefully she responds. I'll have a big ass pay check next friday and It'll be back on my lawn.

I bet you guys are glad I'm finally not blowing smoke up your asses, huh? haha

What was your advice again? Other than to sell you the hood if I get it? haha

I honestly can't believe this woman. The reason she wants more than what I sold it to her for, this is her exact reason "I need to pay the guy who let me keep the car in his yard $100."

As if that is my fucking problem.

I told her if she wants me to take it off of her hands to give me a call. I am fairly confident that she will, considering, there isn't much left on the CL and honestly, not that many people are into restoring 13 year old valueless acuras. (In this area anyway, excluding me) haha

You know, at first I thought great, this could be another sappy story where you and your first love are reunited and all that good shit.

But WOW sucks she did that to the car.

Best of luck

I don't think you're following this correctly, Aman. She didn't do anything to the car, other than take off the bumpers, which I had already disconnected. she is

Haha in that case, cool. Are you going to try selling the car once you get rid of the parts you want?
