I dun have much opinion for Garage five. They never gave me a bad time but then, maybe its all about mood swings.

Spoopling, lets meet up so you can check out how I installed the license plate... maybe there are some mods the shop did that I didnt know.

Either way, dun get personal... people have differnt opinion and stuff. My Dubber friends said my car is a Euro wanna be and I waste money on a Honda Eco-box. Let them have it, I just think they are jealous~ =)

I think we all get a lot of comments from friends or just enthusiasts that just don't understand...
quotes i get all the time
"why do you mod Fit?" "why not just get a s2000?" "waste of money" "dude u choose the wrong car" "fwd sucks honda sucks" "get a real sports car"

it's fine now. I ended up drilling 2 wider holes matching the oem holes and bolted them down.

Yes Spooling, don't take things too personal (if you can really help it).
People take different views of things and have their own opinion; not worth loosing sleep over it.

Its your own car, so the most important thing is that you enjoy the mods you make. Your car is an extension of yourself, so as they say...be yourself and be happy.

Great attitude is very important ingredient for success!

Do you have lots of knowledge and technical training about cars/hondas? (Not about fits, turbocharging, JDM stuff)

If not, what difference would you make compared to someone else who would want a sponsorship from Honda? Dealerships don't 'sponsor' their apprentices anymore, or 'pay' for their programs anymore.

You might as well apply to BCIT AST and wait in line. That's better IMO.
