He said PBIR It's Palm Beach International Raceway. I'd totally drive out there for a meet of some kind. It's like 30 mins away from me.

BTW, what is on 6/24? I see no event on their calendar other than go kart racing.

I noticed that the other day...I was never a guest, I opened my account as soon as I started browsing. Welcome anonymous viewers!

Thanks Anthracite...sometimes I would have liked to have gone with a different color but the silver pops without looking like I'm trying too hard (I think).

PBIN, I did carting once...it was fun but friggin PRICEY!

You can't just bite down in something like that...you gotta suck it for awhile first

GP, this thread getting a little too intimate for you!?!?
Every time we talk worms or psuedo homoerotic stuff, the dang thing goes nuts...when I post up car updates...I gets NOTHING!

Ok, just raised the rear back up a little...since I noticed that the rear springs were not seating properly on the top, I have a feeling I was setting the rear a little lower that I should this whole time (becasue the spring was pushing on the rubber in the tophat instead of seating properly.) Made sure they went where they should as I lowered the car and raised up 2 16ths of an inch on the perch. Looks good now...might lower the front 1 eighths...I just want the perfect stance with the perfect ride...then I'll get her realigned...I'm due.

Undying, that was really uncalled for (but appreciated).

It was getting dark and I did it after an hour long mountain bike ride...kinda tires...plus, wanted it to settle to make a final determination if I'll raise or lower any more.

did take a pretty good set of pics of my flushness that you didn't want my opinion on!


thought my clearance to the parking bump was pretty close...

That lip Looks like someone put Jay Leno's chin on the front of that TL.

I'll be down in Florida for 3 days later this month but I'll be in the Cocoa area the whole time

I guess I meant the fitment was good...not necessarily the look of it. I think if were lowered and had matching sides, it might be ok.

UD, I didn't plan it, just realized it after I parked.

Wow. I see now that you guys did a lot better job with cutting your grilles for the accord fogs but mine are facing forward much better. Guess it's kinda one or the other. Lol

LOL...thanks fellas.
Yeah, Maharaj...the grill sits nicely, but mine definitely follow the contour of the bumper and in doing so, point outward a bit. I have them aimed down a bit too to avoid being high beamed.
