That looks great! If I'm able to pick up an 04-05 valve cover I'll get it coated and throw it on the AP1. Lots to do this summer! The car that keeps on giving (and taking)

I have a 2004-2005 valve cover It's the one that I replaced with the new teal cover! $100 and it's yours.





I have more pictures if you're interested.

Long shot but does anyone have a Hi8 camcorder I might be able to borrow? Would like to pull some old home videos off 8mm film and digitize for my dad's birthday.

Looking to put my car up for sale soon and it needs a good detail. Any recommendations? Preferably closer to Huntersville, but willing to go wherever

I met one of the owners of Brothers Mobile Detailing LLC at a recent C&C meet and he was extremely nice. They come to you and do paint correction services as well. I can't seem to find a website but their contact information is listed on their Instagram page. 704-862-8504.

I've also heard great things about Parks Detailing: http://parksdetailing.com/?gclid=Cj0...VPAaAieS8P8HAQ

Thanks! Tires get mounted tomorrow, but unfortunately I won't be able to do my center caps until the Honda "H" sticker comes in. I also ordered black lug nuts too. Woot woot!

Well, three out of four ain't bad. I picked up three of my wheels from Discount Tire. The fourth tire was never shipped from the TX store. Soooo, here's how she sits until mid week. Stickers haven't came in for the center caps yet, so she won't have any caps for now. Color is hard to see, but really pops in person. At least all the black lug nuts came in on time.

You wheel color is similar to my AP2V1's as well, AJ! We can be wheel twins! I think mine are a bit more of a matte finish though. Looks great!
