STICKER BOMBED.... lol :D . Man I liked the first car, what even happened to end up in the woods?
Dude it's the same one I've had all along. She's survived rolling down a cliff, spinning out at 60mph, sliding into a wittle ditch, VTECing with no oil, you name it, she's been through it. Learned so much about cars and a little bit of life with it. Keeping the Silver Bullet for a while.

Haha yes that's Ivy and back end of the house, it is supposed to look like that.

Anyway here are some shots of it without the stickers, don't mind the graffiti, I was at a party lastnight, some bitches had markers apparently, tagged everyone's cars.

Nice, a little loud for my taste but sounds good.
Yeah it sounds super raspy cause of the weather, but I don't like how it sounds anymore, and the lack of back pressure is a pain in the d**k. My boy at Midas said he'd weld my cat on and do the coils for 100 bucks, so waiting on the money for that.

Haha yeah I found out who did it. Sluts I might add, one of them completely ruined my friends love life. But anyway. One of her cleaned up. Stickerless!



Andddd I got my coil sleeves in the mail, and I also got my headlight switch but to my suprise I got the whole assembly with the wiper switch aswell. 50 bucks for all that instead of 120 at AutoZone for just the switch.












That's all for now. =)

eBay, the seller was really chill about the mistake. It's new too! And yeah the coil sleeves are from eBay but I wanna add all the "eBay brand" s**t I've bought have been the DNA Motoring brand you see in the picture, and for the price I do wanna say the quality is pretty good. The strut bar I had was really nice and didn't feel cheap or anything, same with the short shifter I got.

Quality in terms of physical appearance and actual quality of the product itself are 2 very different things. A polished turd is still a turd. Don't be surprised if the car bounces all over the place and handles like garbage. There is a very distinct fine line between bouncy and stiff.
