Well, I've had my car for over 3 years now.
It's my first and only car.
I just started college, so the big plans i had for it disappeared due to college expenses :(.

So far i have:

Used y8 ( 60xxx miles give or take a few k )
2 Month Old Transmission with new clutch/fly wheel/pressure plate
8lb flywheel on the way
Gsr fat fives ( i'm trying to trade them for practically anything atm )
ebay cat back
ebay headers lol
aem intake
plugs and wires
skunk2 short shifter
oem struts
ebay coilovers
skunk2 camber kit ( rear only atm )
new grille on the way ( black )
si tails

What needs to be done:

I need a paint job obviously.
New front/rear bumpers ( i've had about 4 hit and runs -_- )
New trunk lid ( I had a box with 2 12"'s and it slid around and messed the alignment up )
Lip ( front&back )
si cluster
si climate control
different rims
b series in the future



My cameras screen is all black, so I have no idea how the picture will turn out untill i upload it onto the computer, so don't mind the shitty pictures D:.

the fat fives look like ass, good thing you're getting rid of them. Do you have a grille?

Yea i've been trying to get different rims haha.
And i HAD one with black mesh, it looked decent, till my friend decided to jump on my bumper and break it.

He ordered me a black mesh one from ebay though.

:thumbs up on ditching the wheels.
Also loose the chameleon/ion headlights and you will be looking good.
Great job otherwise.

It's connected. The guys that did my transmission last umm.. tilted it??? Its f**king retarted. My 5th is where 3rd should be etc.. I've gone back to ask them to fix it and they are like, we can't?? even though they did it.

If they "tilted" your tranny, that means your motor is "tilted". Something dosent seem right, either way. Either your shifter isnt connected, or your tranny is missing gears or something. Either way, Id be concerned.

this is what they're telling you:

1. we angled it to make shifting easier
2. no, we cannot put it back to a normal angle.



sounds like they f**ked up something and are covering it up.

...how...would you even accomplish that? I wouldnt even know how to TRY and do that. It just dosent seem possible. If it were my car, id bring it back to the shop, and be like "fix this, and Im not leaving till its done."

You're running low on gas. Get a lip and it will help the car look better.

Your friend jumped on your bumper...?

take it to the hondaship before you take it back. see if you can get a free diagnosis from the service department so you have the "dealer's opinion" on the issue... it'll be some good ammo for a rebuttal should the shop try to avoid taking responsability
