Here's the current progress of the car


***********************************
All right, so got my car back 5 days ago from its accident (this was the damage, $1611 to fix that!!), the shop did an EXCELLENT job of (1) Fixing it and (2) Matching the paint, couldn't have asked for better

So onto the good stuff 
(and before you even THINK about posting about it, yes, i have shocks and springs to rid myself of wheel gap, just haven't had time for the install yet... so save the keystrokes)
I'm always changing stuff, and i really felt like getting some different rims, so i hit up our former sponsor "EdgeRacing" located down here in miami and picked up some Falken Torque 5 rims (17x7) and some Hankook 405 tires (205/40/17)


As mentioned, i have some Koni Reds and HR Racing springs (1.75" front, 1.5" rear) that i picked up off of Joe and Ryan at NL Motoring, just waiting for the chance for the install
Moving on... one thing that was messed up on my car when i purchased it was the front bumper... looked like the previous owner ran up on a curb or something, so before I put it into the shop, i purchased a new bumper from Sunnyside Acura (not bad, $240 plus $90 to ship from CT to FL) and also picked up a Type-R Replica lip from another one of our sponsors, StreetStyler.com. the body shop charged me $300 to prep and paint them both, a price i thought was fair enough

Member DC4Kid hooked me up with a Rear Wiper Delete Plug, so took the time to remove that eyesore

Lastly I finally finished off installing some Carbon Fiber inserts from TopShop

I also have a Grill-Tech grill, but i'll have to modify it to fit with the Lip installed.....
Also waiting in the wings is the previously mentioned suspension parts PLUS I have new rotors and brakes that i bought from Jeff at PropartsUSA
All this I installed today.... tomorrow is the day to finish my system finally.... and hopefully within a few weeks find the time and place to install suspension and brake parts

I gotta say, that this car looks awesome in person. The body work is mint and the front lip is a perfect fit. And it was nice to finally meet you.

They fixed the existing one, if you look at that area, the whole back of the car is one big piece
as for the CF inserts, the holes are sitting there empty right now, the screws aren't needed (for me anyways, its in place and stable with just the door handle trim holding it tight)
