Thanks! I will be sure to let you know when/where the next meet is!
Awesome man, thanks. Any fender mods/rubbing issues? I've wanted to go 16x8 +20 for some time but I'm scared that I'll have to flare the hell out of the fenders.

Maybe for the next one I will look into a bigger battery.
How often you drive yours? There are times when I don't drive it for 1-2 weeks and the battery is too weak to start the car. I have 2 other Hondas in the family that can sit for weeks as well, but they have no issues starting right up. It's more likely the physical battery size is the issue rather than my electrical system.

I also drive it in -25 or colder weather in the winter and it struggles sometimes but it hasnt failed me yet *knock on wood*.
I suspect you have a slow drain to be consuming batteries that fast. I wonder if theres anyway to test it.

I usually drive it almost every day. But there are times also where it sits for a week, two weeks, or once even months at a time and its always started up fine.

I hope this one lasts me longer, but I have my doubts. Oh well. With this one I have a fresh start to a 3 yr honda warranty. :-)
Damn the rain. It keeps raining every weekend when I have off. Finally was able to finish off the other fender and do the door handles and fuel door. Had some extra strips of vinyl and decided to mess with some eyelids.

Well they do great work. Also it was part of a deal. I traded my Work wheels to a guy in NJ and his part of the deal was to get the NT03 wheels powdered in a color of my choice. Once that was done we traded wheels.
