I just swapped the drivers side since it leaked on me. The new sealant is setting as we speak and should be out back on tomorrow. I'll get you some better pics. Going to go pick up my slr from my brothers house.

Congrats on you purchase it looks good. It almost looks lia Type-S. is that what you are going for. Looks good. I guess I haven't seen your car in a while. When did you get your window visors? What new lights you got cooking up now. I am looking to replace my tails turning signals. I want red bulbs to replace the existing one. You know we're I can get a pair in RED. I prefer LED,but would settle for any as long as is RED. Let me know.

Have you checked VLED's website. What tails do you have now? When I did my other tails, I just used a red glass stain from a hobby shop and stained the glass red. It's still holding up decent.

Looking good! I'm perpetually torn between Type-S, A-spec and Forgestar wheels for mine...

It'll still be a while for me though. I just finished up a buttload of motor work on mine. Ive got a month or so of down time while I break in the new rings & pistons. After that, it'll be the '07 Type-S ECU.

I liked the a-specs, but they resemble the 07-08 base wheels to much for me to buy them. That is why I opted for Type-s wheels.

I think I am going to do that. It is cheaper than the leds.

I think you only registered for the activities. You didn't register for the event itself.

Here's the link to the registration for the actual meet...http://api.viglink.com/api/click?for...13650774426845

As of now, I should be going. I hope my headlights will be done before this event, but that means I have to get my butt in gear. I'll be following another couple down from up here.

I should be able to make it to B4B. Seeing how much snow were getting that's is definitely going to delay the opening of our golf course lol. I don't see us being open for a few weeks.
