Tonight both of us agreed that we cannot continue to make a $700 payment on a fucking car. Ascame to an mutual agreement to sell everything, shotgun, TL and RDX. We are going to buy a Civic and spend the rest of our money on vacations. It doesn't seem to make sense that we spend all this time and money trying to be better than you.

Anyone who loves cars, BBQ, meeting new people, hanging out and having a good time should be here. It would be sweet to have tons of nice cars out there, lining the entire parking lot!

If there is a lot of people confirmed, I will reserve a covered picnic area.

Imports, domestics, old, new, trucks, airplanes, motorcycles, YOU GOT IT, BRING IT!

Bring BBQ's and grill some burgers, or bring meat and slap it on someone else' grill

This is all about bringing out the Portland car enthusiasts together (no matter what you got) and having a great time and to meet new people!

July 28th, 11:00am- when you want to leave.

Cost as of now is just $5 to get into the park for an all day pass

I want some sick Acura's there!!!

Arlo.

soon my rear end will look like this

A-Spec rear lip
FLP lip spoiler
AP2 exhaust tips





and after saving up some money, euroR front lip next year. but not sure what i should do with the side skirts. keep it as it is, a-spec, or euroR...

EuroR front, Aspec sides..



EuroR front, '06-08 OEM sides..


Full EuroR

i'd do full euroR too but they are too expensive now days they are about $870 shipped a pop. which is about $2600 for the full kit not including a euroR front grille and yesterday, i ordered a aspec rear with hardware kit for $300. love the rarity and jdmness but thought its not worth extra $570

this is the euroR front and rear lip with oem sides







btw.. back in 2006 when i did full euroR conversion, it costed about $1500 and that includes front grille and emblems too.

^ supply and demand.. and the whole japan quake took care of those costs..

why not get a replica kit? cheaper and honestly who cares that its a replica? as long as it looks good and gets the job done then all should be well

Haven't decided what to do.
Waiting on a bid for a new roof and south side windows. Spent way, WAY too much on remodeling the kitchen and bathrooms, so this bid is critical (I love it when there is a lack of communication regarding money in the household budget).

ETS never gave me back the old TMIC, which is fine 'cause they don't sell on eBay anyhow, because ETS makes a better one.


\/ Been on eBay for months now...Price started at $500+

http://www.ebay.com/itm/140772033927...84.m1423.l2649

I'm now taking the Bus/Max to work, so driving something nice just isn't worth it.

only reason why im asking is cause i wouldnt mind getting your intercooler cover so i can see about making a carbon part out of it.. if its going to a dealer they wont miss it.. if its going privately they might say something..

let me know.. ill give ya 20$ for it =)

Too much illegal shit going off in my neighborhood last night. One of my neighbors lost a finger last week, and the cat was freaked out!
It has become another, "My bang is bigger than your bang" pissing contest between the guys with small penises that live around here.

Ironically the asshole with the lifted truck has 5 dogs so the last thing he'd be setting off in his front yard is a mortar.

Picked these up at Freddy's today. Impact site glows green upon impact!

Teaser.. haha

Changed oil today too with Chevron Supreme from Costco and OEM Honda filter. Was thinking to switch to synthetic, but decided to do conventional every 3k miles.

i'm not sure about the new ones, but acura never used synthetic oils from the factory. service managers may recommend upgrading it to synthetic, but its not a required thing. even my '07 tl typeS used conventional oil back than

he told me, 240 had no issues other than fixing some wires that were cut by the thieves. he made a round trip to Bend without any issues too. only problem will be the emissions, but where he lives doesn't require emissions testing, so that won't be a problem too.

and.. the bumper is off because of this. haha

didn't think about taking pics until i got in the car was too busy looking at the fx that gets rarely driven

The only production HMCo product using synthetic oil is the RDX.

And FUCK the Police. Stories like this above make me realize how much of a Nazi state we live in today.
