Constructed a bracket for my AMW Oil Catch Cans. Its pretty cool and it utilizes the two factory holes in the fender. I polished the bracket to a mirror shine last night. I'llpost more pics upon install:

Car looks good! Definitly a nice upgrade over the neon. I'm currently working on making my jump to an STI too. It will be a huge jump in performance and handling over my accord.

Hey thanks! You'll never look back in an STI, and thats not only because you cannot see passed the wing!

Ever tryed to claim a warranty on JDM bling? Don't bother, its impossible. Anyway, I had a certain piece "fail" on my car. I was able to get another piece at a significant discount because of teh failure of the original piece.
I end up with a Beatrush pulley cover laying around my garage that is not usable for its intended purpose.
Insert moment of Wile E. Coyote Super Genius, beer, and a dremel...

Suddenly grambo has a new relay cover....a JDMish one...

Just went AP Stage 1 and my wife has had the car all day. Also picked up a 2 gauge bezel for the dashboard. Oil pressure and EGT will likely reside there once I get funding for some HKS gauges.
Picking up a Titek downpipe and going Stage 2 asap.

After that, its all about a protune with some additional goodies like a larger fuel pump.
With gas prices as high as they are, why not right?

Got a sick hook-up on a Titek-catted Down Pipe!
BAM Stage 1 and Stage 2 in less than a month.

Sad to say that we have lost another STI to bad luck and that is how I ended up with the DP.

I hope to pick up the DP today and get it on before the end of the month.:RockOn - not mine:
