I was going to wash mine to get off the salt and what not, but it ended up being near 50 with torrential downpours yesterday. So instead, I spent 10 minutes staring at it. :rolleyes:

I did these this past weekend. I hardwired my dash cam (sorry no pics). I also installed a relay for my LED footwell lights, so that they come on with the dome lights.

I did this without having to splice any wires or tap any wires in the cars harness!!! It works AWESOME!!!! I also have them on with the doors closed when the car is running. HUGE thanks to @Kusoyaro for the diagram here. Instead of splicing into the wire I used a wire terminal similar to this, to plug onto the pin on the harness.

bembol's unfortunate encounter with a pothole reminded me of what I did to my civic a few days ago...

I got good and stuck in the snow on the side of the driveway. My driveway is long and gravel up until just in front of the garage, where there is a 3 car wide concrete pad. I usually like to park facing out so I swing towards my spot, then past and hard away from my spot so I can reverse into it. Well, it'd snowed a bit and I overshot the pulling forward by about 6 inches which put me off the gravel and just over a very slight mound at the edge of the gravel. It falls off about a foot or so, gradually, over the course of maybe 3-4 feet, but that was plenty. I proceeded to try to rock it back and forth until I'd dug myself a 20-30 foot by 10-15 foot grave of mud and snow. Got out the mower with chains on the tires and tried to yank her out. Unfortunately, it was, unknowingly to me, my gf's first try at unsticking anything and I didn't give her clear instructions. Th mower pulled very well until my gf decided to take a hard right and negate any further unsticking. Next we tried her Rav4 and viola! Out.

I got nervous as there doesn't seem to be a great impromptu towing point to strap around but everything seems fine with the way I did it.

Dumb snow.

Nice work but oh man, it sort of looks like a forensic scene now. Better stay an honest family man ;)

I got this off Curtis Wilson from mango tees off Facebook. Not sure if he’s on here. But send him a DM. He shipped mines out insanely quick.

I got the tires rotated but also ask Honda to look under for any issues after I hit a pothole.

They wanted to charge me $56 as well for inspection but I said it takes 30 seconds. LOL

I don't know if they really did but said no issues and paid $38 for the rotation.

I had my new gloss black honeycomb grill installed yesterday, and I put red and black emblems on it today. The spoiler was painted and installed about a week ago.

Installed a UR strut bar, compliments of @Matt Noke, changed the oil, threw these aluminum nuts on and gave her a bath.

Thinking about getting that kind of Strut Bar. I have a Sirimoto Phase 2 and I have to say the quality of driving you get from a strutbar has diminished within a month of the install on my car. Idk if it's just the break in period or not. Plus, the bar is touching some tubing above the engine, making it rattle everytime i start the car. It barely fit when i installed it. I'd say about 97%.
