Put my rims/side skirts back on over the weekend. Then it snowed over the next few days.

I'm gonna wash the car and take some real pictures eventually.

Try setting your camera to manual mode or shutter priority mode and start with a shutter speed of 1/250. That's usually where I start to see blur. It's hard to hand hold a camera with anything slower than 1/100, so try somewhere in that range. With a speed of about 40-50 mph, you should get some really nice shots.

i love seeing dirty ass SUVs, it reminds me that there are still some people in this world who use their SUVs to actually go off road.

offroading / mudrunning actually gets pretty intense.
depending on the angle of the slope and getting stuck and what not.

its fun as hell either way.

rule of thumb. always go with another car haha

I can't decide whether I like the wheels white or not. That's the kind of ride I'd like to get. Definitely original. I think I've only seen 2 or 3 of those wagons ever and they were all pos.

It's hard to have a Honda as a daily driver and NOT mod it. Ask me how I know.

Did some impulse shopping for the CL today and stopped by a window tint shop. They had a "$99 Monday Special" and I said, "Let's do it!". It's the NC legal limit which is 35%.







I think I got what I paid for. The black dots on the top of the rear window and the sides of the front windows don't seem to be letting the tint stick too well. I also noticed some bigger bubbles in the rear window, but I hear that they'll disappear over time. Whatever, I think it looks good.

Great price, I paid $175 and still have the black dots showing on the doors and rear window, yours looks good from far away though

Thanks guys. As for the dots and bubbles, I might try to push some of those out tomorrow. I almost went with 20%, but glad I didn't. 35 is dark enough. Just wish I had black interior.
