- Fri Sep 25, 2015 1:45 am #356206 Yeah same problems here. it's just the passenger side mirror giving me problems. It's pointed almost all the way towards the ground :? :( :thumbdown:
I dont mind the hole though. you could probably find an inside mirror portion that doesn't have the hole from an EX or even an LX I think. any of the models with power mirrors.
I dont mind them too much because I have a wink mirror and it lets me see just about everything around me.

the reason the numbers look blurry is because the plastic in front of the gauges is a little foggy. might attack that with some cleaner tomorrow.

- Tue Sep 29, 2015 8:59 pm #356257 considering it came from a civic to begin with i don't think you'll need it but if you are planning to get a bigger sway bar later down the road i do not see how it would hurt getting it now.Shoot i have a brace and no bar lol.

Snapped a lug :thumbdown: :cry:

It's one of the lugs holding my spacer to my hub. I'm gonna need to replace it. Hopefully soon, because I'm going to a big show on the 10th, and I'd really like to drive my car.

- Mon Nov 02, 2015 3:23 am #357435 So I got a new hub and had it pressed in with a new bearing. All good!
Painted the wheels all white

also got a Real Carbon Fiber gauge cluster bezel.

I love it!

Also picked up an NRG short hub and wheel combo for 80 bucks.
Wheel is a bit faded, but I love it all the same.

More updates soon :D
