The rear of the fit was legit but sadly I never got a shot of it.

The accord looked really good. Earlier I was driving my parents which is the same color but with the 4cyl.

I will post the rest later on today...after I get some sleep.

Great pics Eric.

I didn't take many pics. It was just so hot out. I think I did manage to grab a shot of the rear of the fit though.

Great shots as usual Eric! Bryan, I saw this on Saturday and thought of you. No homo.



And soon after that, I rode around in this for a bit

Same here. It was pretty hot, but not nearly as hot as last year. Had a slight breeze this time too.

I almost waited for 9pm, but left the lego store at 815 and didn't feel like waiting so I just drove home. I went by the cookout location in Pineville, and if its really gonna be a cookout, it will be one of those sit down locations.

Doing so is going to raise the height of your car Eric. Also why not get the wheel properly powder coated instead of spray painting them? Your wheels are in rather mint condition if I recall.

So my interior project begins today. Im building a hardwood floor for my trunk with either a hinged or pull out access door for the spare tire. Then Im using the left over floor panels to make a sorta of VIP tray with cup holder because my car didnt come with holders ANYWHERE! My valve cover is gonna be hydrodipped in a wood grain graphic done by Clockwork Motorsports

My exhaust won't complain about the few millimeters that will be added haha.

Why not get them professionally yet?.. I would rather rice it up for a little bit before having them done right. haha

And they were fairly mint, but now they are minty-neon.

yeah it should turn out pretty good and its definitely different since my car isnt a VIP platform, but its hard to be different. Plus, anybody can go out and buy a tray but I like tinkering and building things.

Innovation and ingenuity.



At this time I would like to kindly direct those of us instagramers to their instagrams for a sneak peak at the minty fresh neon TE37s.

So here's the final rendering of the tray extending to the back of the dash and flush with the top. If only I had photoshop to actually make this look real.

We saw you too. Passed a white Ferrari shortly before we passed you. I'm sure you saw where we were headed to on instagram haha. That place was good.
