FG2uner · 12-25-2007, 08:23 PM

FG2uner · 12-25-2007, 08:29 PM

its called CARBON KEVLAR. in this link it looks just like mine, but gold. is this what you want? it looks a lil more spensive.

CivicBeater · 12-25-2007, 08:41 PM

dude, are you sure yours is going to fit??? I was looking at your auction and it says it's for an ep3 02-05 civic

FG2uner · 12-25-2007, 08:44 PM

I have no fricken clue but yeah i guess it should fit.

Can't wait to see them installed!

FG2uner · 12-25-2007, 09:01 PM

lol, you got me scared. i had to run down stairs and triple check if the holes line up, and they do. Well, you wont have to wait long for the pics. tomorrows the install day and i will post up the pics tomorrow too. plus youll see it all at the meet up close and personal. i think im also gonna paint my calipers red too tomorrow. i got the kit. but im in jersey and its cold up here, so idk if the paint will dry good. my uncle has a big ass shop i can do all my mods at, but then i got to drive back to the familys house after. so idk if they will dry in time.

CivicBeater · 12-25-2007, 09:32 PM

yeah you just really want to make sure you have plenty of enough time for the calipers to dry...Was this your first trip in the si?

FG2uner · 12-25-2007, 09:44 PM

of course home in nc we have the water restrictions so you cant wash your car at home. i was washing it at the DIY car wash and it was starting to look very bad. so i took half the day today and bought $100 in car wash stuff (meguires car wash, a 10 piece microfiber detail kit, clay bar, all kinds of stuff). i washed the piss out of it, claybarred it, and waxed it. needless to say it looks better than when i bought it. its nhbp and as you prolly know, black sux, it gets soo dirty, shows all kinds of scratches. but its very nice now. i got the 10hr trip home yet and im debating on taping the front! i just dont want to look rediculous going down the road with my whole front end taped up. lol idk?

lol i know what you mean...I did the same thing for thanksgiving when I was down in Florida...

FG2uner · 12-25-2007, 09:53 PM

believe it or not i didnt feel a thing. i bounced off a few trees and went off a 20ft ditch/cliff, whatever. needless to say i was sad, but ok. the car is amazingly built. i was going around a long left turn and was going pretty fast but not too fast, about 50mph. all of a sudden the steering wheel just ripped out of my hands and the car went straight. i was doing some rally shit in the gravel and just when i had it saved, here comes the cliff and all the trees. and well, as you see in the pics, you know the rest. idk exactally wat happened, but the RF tire was completely off the wheel, every other wheel was fine. i went to the same dealership the same day and got my 07 nhbp coupe si.

So the steering wheel ripped out causing your accident?!?!?! If that's the case I'd freakin' own honda right now and would be suffering from "lifetime" injury
