after years of being stupid with credit, i've been more cautious the last couple years and not carry a balance. only debt i have is to the users on this forum and my credit union.

home ownership is something i wish i can get, but probably not in the bay area, anytime soon.

I bought a carbon fiber grille from china on ebay a few months back. I was drunk and they accepted my offer of $100 lol.. now I don't even know if I will install it haha

I want to buy a house in 2016, but the wife is having hard time getting a job up here *sigh*

urbanstereo

still houses where you guys live will probably be 100-300k

over here houses start at 700k for fixer uppers and 900k for decent homes. now 2 br condos start at 700k now too

*cries*

You also should have a higher salary in California compared to someone in Texas doing the same thing. I don't know what the average salary is in those areas but the house prices still might be pretty high for how much an average person makes.

Certain areas of Dallas are the exact same way. 3br houses in Highland Park/University Park easily go for 1mil.

Im gunna wait for my wife to bring home the money. I'd be a happy man if she was the bread winner for our family.

my bumper to bumper warranty is coming up in Nov.

anyone do like an inspection before their warranty expired?

urbanstereo

there are tents you can rent in a backyard for $900

Harper

Or you can buy a tent and go to some camping sites?

Holy crap, that's ridiculous. A million over here can get you a borderline mansion house with 5-6 thousand square feet. And I'm sure you could find better than these 2.

Just got back from a mini-vacation in Virginia/Maryland/DC. Saw so many more TSX sedans and wagons than I've seen here in Florida in years.

optimusaccord

I was in NoVa, and seen lots of the cu2 chassis with body kits.

What is going on? Are we entering phase 2 of the show off crowd?

iCrap

wait wut. i live here and i have seen like 4 wagons total


double wut. I hardly see any modded cu2s around here lol

xtcnrice

As far as instagram is concerned, #cu2 has really taken off. Not in the direction I would've liked, but nonetheless, taken off lol

iCrap

Well.. now the car has become stupidly cheap so it makes sense.

Does anyone know if you can fit our rear bumper into the cabin (i.e., from the rear driver side across to the front passenger side)?

obert

Pretty sure I have seen this done before !

Maybe try folding the rear seats down and putting it in that way.

urbanstereo

just tape it over the current bumper. snug fit.

iCrap

No way its gonna fit unless you like bend it and shove it in there (lol)

ulrblitzer

Might have better luck going from the trunk to the front passenger, but be ready to bend that sucker.

xtcnrice

Seems doable for 3G TL, but IIRC their rear bumper is pretty small.

edit: especially this guy:
Damn you guys are doubting it eh..

ulrblitzer

Let us see when you've accomplished the challenge. I'd guinea pig it for us but I don't have a spare bumper cover laying around.

cu2wagon

Yeah, I haven't done it, but I think if you can lay the front seatback down as far as it'll go, you should be able to contort it in from front to back.

Source: I've stuffed some pretty big things into tight places before and it totally looks doable.

It fits. Did it the same way. Little difficult to look at the traffic from the right side!

rawger

I saw a wagon in a parking garage and a few others driving around near the national harbor. Overall, it felt like I was in Germany. Audi/BMW/Benz left and right.

wut wut in the butt.

Thoughts on these and if I should buy them off eBay or better places to buy them/ should I get 1 or both or none?

[QUOTE=HondoGermany;15489956]Thanks so much! Appreciate the confirmation.
