So I looked back through the 77 widening project, and here is what's going to happen.

The existing HOV lane will become a HOT lane(high occupancy toll) T
They will be adding an additional HOT lane up to Catawba avenue. (exit 28)
One HOT lane will be added up to 150 (exit 36)

I'm not sure if these hot lanes will be barricaded off or not. I'm about to see if I can find some examples from other states.

They're coming at 9:00, so I still have to get up early. They came up with the day and time. Normally I would've countered; had them come the same day as the insulation people next week. However, I want this whole thing done so badly, I just went with it.

I guess? He hasn't explicitly stated that it's supposed to look like that, but I guess it does look kinda similar with the 2-piece front overfenders and extension.

I'm just excited that there is going to be something different after ~5 years of the same thing.

Reason I mention the kit is because that rear fender towards the back reminds me of the rear on the RB

He's said several times that he'd keep it suzuka. He likes the color a lot because it's not as common, but does like the OEM Honda colors.

So for about a week now I've been keeping track with how many new Lexus ISes I see compared to ILXes on the road. It's now 6 to 1 IS to ILX.


Acura...that is pathetic.

The quickest I could get there is going to be 7...and that's probably a little aggressive. Maybe 7:30...

Damnit that sounds like a good idea. Although I say maybe just skip the meet and drink beer.

So I've been thinking...if this FC can look this good with aftermarket fenders and running RPF1 wheels, then I might just do the same thing when I get all my fenders done. 18x10.5 +15

We might not want to go to the university one. Cheap beer and a college around the corner the place will probably be packed. We should probably go to the Huntersville one instead.
