but about two weeks after i picked it up from the dealer, my friend went to buy an ex and the dealer had an si on the lot someone had ordered but their loan fell through and he picked up a fresh 06 nighthawk black si for 18500....my parents would have spotted me the extra 500 if it had happened to me, talk about a kick in the nuts. it had the factory kit (even though i dont like the front lip) and fogs too. now its rollin around with full tein coilover suspension, edfc, black work 18s, greddy turbo kit and full exhaust, hondata reflash, etc. hes pushin 300 or better to the crank...freakin nasty. he told me last week he wanted an is350 or 335i so hed sell it to me for 15000, but i declined since mines my daily and im workin on an eg coupe im gonna put a k swap in........ but still i was pissed

you are wasting your money on premium. You are gaining nothing and could actually be harming your engine by using an octane higher than recommended.

yeah but i dont want someone else's project... i like to see it from beginning to end, not watch someone else do it. and as for the premium, a mechanic at the dealership actually told me to use it to get rid of that awful knock the r18 has in low rpm.

^ Okay that makes sense. Well best of luck to you

[bwoodward1]

i dont have the steering wheel emblem yet.

but i got a JDM emblem. overlayed it with black, then ordered the other piece from grfxp and put it on. i want to do the steering wheel, but im still trying to find a way to get rid of the chrome around it.

i love the black rims, they look so sick. Im supposed to get mine dipped soon in gloss black and im doin a red lip. im also painting the center caps gloss black and printing some red vinyl honda emblem stickers to put on them. saw it on some si rims in gunmetal and it looked great.

[bwoodward1]

did you get them dipped or just paint them yourself?
