Thanks dude, It's been fun so far. My family and friends have really come to enjoy the car.
Lately it's the topic of conversation. I ordered some more pieces that should look pretty cool.
Swapped the reverse light bulbs for LED. When backing up, I found there was limited visibility because of light.
Added front seat gap fillers.
New custom/ generic roof spoiler.
New hood Ornament.
Shampoo'd carpet.
Badges installed.
New driving gloves in the glove box.
Yeah dude! We had a blast. Glad to see everyone out there.
Scooter games.
Helping a friend redo this 1985 HONDA Gyro-S
This thing is amazing.. 2 stroke-50cc, 2-speed automatic transmission, 3 wheels
Did the motor and carb first.
New Honda Spree piston swap.
New everything, seals, plug, machine work. Needs a new jet. Many New plastics.
Most comfortable scooter of all time. Rides like a cloud.

Did a Timing belt and water pump on the girlfriend's 04 Civic. I love this thing.. Real nice Civic. It now has 170,000 on it.
I also did this for a friend. Jeep Wrangler wheels on a CRV.
And helped my mother find this '97 Acura RL to purchase. Quite the step up for her.. Her previous vehicle was a janky '05 Hemi Dodge Magnum RT. Boy was that thing a piece of junk...
Picked up a couple nails on the interstate last week.
For both RL's;
Differential lube changed
ATF changed
Motor oil changed
New steering rack bushings
Also been collecting a bunch of audio equipment lately and installed this into my RL. Kicker PT250 powered sub.
Allows me to keep my factory head unit. I love it. Perfect tones as an addition to the Bose factory system.
I chopped all the old rusty wiped out sway bar links to install new ones. Rides far more solid now.. Less like a sailboat swaying in the breeze..
Honda's new DW-1 ATF found it's way into both of the RL's... Huge difference with shifting points and overall smoothness. Amazing change really..
Been playing with the RL some more lately.
New seat back clips because many of mine were broken.
New rear mudflaps. I had a spare set of Del Sol flaps that I retrofitted.
New black Gator inserts for the Jaguar cup holders/ trays.
New bass controller for the subwoofer installed. Now I can turn the bass off whenever I don't feel like listening to it. Cool feature I think.
New Upper Control Arm installed on the RL.
New UCA Bushings
New UCA Balljoints
This thing feels flat out amazing now. It's soooo quiet. I'd venture to say that this is very near how it felt the day it was new.
I've nearly replaced everything up front at this point.
I'm cheezin' like a little kid right now...
These projects have occupied most my time lately though.
I've been spending the winter building a pair of vintage Blue Ridge Dirt Race Cars
A 1930's Ford Sedan & a '56 Chevy Bel Air, almost finished with each.

I also finally snapped some pictures with the camera.
The cup holders are incredible!!!

I bought a Turbo GSR 3rd Gen. hatch. Tons of trick parts. Hoping to roll across the dyno soon.
I also bought a 95 EG, it's an EX sedan. It's cute and perfect as my new little commuter. 1 mile to the art studio.. lol
Here's what I have on hand.
I bought some more cars, this 2wd 3G wagovan.
I also lucked up on a clean little virgin 1G CRX Si with only about 100,000 miles on it
I've also been hoarding wheels I guess..
This one's an '88 Honda Shadow 800 bobber
