Lip looks good. What's the cost of those compared to the JDP lip?

How's the gap between the lip and the bumper because I know the bottom of the bumper isn't flat

It's a fun car, and fairly heavily modded. Let's see if this site lets me link to a cardomain page this time: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/279936...30ci-coupe-2d/

Bit the bullet and bought the armrest, then installed it last night. Should have been one of my first mods--comfy. It was kind of a PITA though. I think I had a piece from ever section of my tool collection out. It's very hefty, and worth the money for sure. I didn't know how sturdy it would be. Doubt the ebay ones compare in that way.

Thank you for that! If only more CarDomain pages were like that, I'd spend more time there.

Well written, great pics, etc.

I installed the Homelink transmitter (battery powered) and the center armrest. I just finished giving the car its first wash. I skipped my usual full on surface prep before applying a coat of Backfire Wet Diamond sealant, which is drying now. I'll grab a couple of photos of the car in the morning.

Decided I wanted to mount my amp to the back of my seat and switch out my ported box (which i sealed) for a smaller sealed one.

Did you guys know that our car's steering wheel not only adjusts up and down but telescopes toward and away from you too? Also, when you have the headlights on you can adjust the brightness of the dash lights by turning the trip/odo knob? I DID NOT KNOW THIS UNTIL A WEEK AGO! It's pretty cool and actually made driving a lot more comfortable.

This has been your weekly public service announcement.

Hahaha. I wonder if some of the people who complain about driving position are unaware of this. Probably the first thing I do when I get into any new car for anything, even sitting in it at a car show. Enjoy your new ride.

Added Protective grille and black H

Last weekend I added a front lower mesh grille to protect against damage to the A/C condenser and while at it I blacked out the "H" with Plasti-dip spray. (see this thread)
