I have some silver striping tape to use on my black RPF1s... It is a cheap effective cosmetic enhancement that can be as subtle or razzle dazzle as you like... I have used a lot of striping tape over the years... A little bit can be too much if it is in the wrong place or not applied perfectly...... Good idea Hootie..

But the back looked a little small so I checked the part number listed on the GE8 Emblem DIY on here...apparently icbmotorsport uses a different part number. I called them up and told them about it. I'm shipping my smaller one back to them, and they will ship me the new (slightly larger) one with the part number that everyone else on here seems to be using. Buuut, unfortunately, I had already taken the back emblem off so for now my ass looks like this...

How did you remove the stock rear emblem?

I live southeast of Dallas...

The stock emblem, I used needle nose pliers to cut the clip things from under the hatch.

Haven't ordered any new parts recently because I've been saving up for a new computer. I'm hoping spring will bring me some chassis bars, a few interior goodies and a b-pipe. Perhaps even an intake.

Wow

Well, I just read the entire thread... All I can say is wow! You have done a lot of work! Keep it up!

-Ray

PS: I'm wheel stupid and guess I just got lucky. I bought the wheels I have on my Fit for the Civic I had. I only had them on the Civic a month. When I bought the Fit I sold the Civic. I couldn't see just giving the wheels away so I tried them on the Fit the day I brought it home and TA DA! They worked with no rubbing. They are 17's with 205/40 ZR tires. I HAVE NO IDEA what the offset is but it just happened to work out. Now that I'm lowered on Drop Zone springs still no rubbing! I guess I'm just lucky.

If those were 16's I would have picked them up from you already.

I really want to powdercoat my rims but no fundage...especially since I really really want a new TV and an Xbox 360.


Thanks for the compliments, Ray.
She's sort of stalled out on mods lately...haven't had time and money has been going to other things.

I think its the basic 20 gb white xbox 360. I rarely play it anymore. Never had issues, no red ring of death, unmodified. Basically been sitting up high in my closet the past year.

What's up with your rims? What color do ya want to switch them to? No more love for the black? Are we still talking about your Spec-R's?

Enquiring minds want to know...
