Nothing wrong with that at all. I have a whole list that I'm gonna have to start buying after Christmas to get my car where I want it to be next summer. And I want the front lip too. Always have just haven't bought it. I love our exhaust/ rear bumper combination though.

Yeah, the 2.4's rear facia looks much better with the N2 than the SS/SC IMO.

I wasn't gonna do the front lip until I bottomed up my front bumper in a parking garage. First and LAST time I ever try parking in a parking garage. Got a few tiny scratches under the front bumper where it curves up....but its enough to make me want the lip now, lol. I'm just THAT ****. I want the new mats b/c I basically havent't done anything with my interior save for the TWM shifter and the pure white Gamin Nuvi 205 GPS...if you even wanna count that as a mod, lol. Plus I got mad pedal wear/hole on my driver's side mat.

As for the nitrous.....getting that in spring. At that point i'll be living with 2 of my 3 best friends, as we're all getting a house together with a garage, and all 3 of my best friends are car junkies (Jeff, '06 STI with basic bolt-ons, Kris, '05 Focus (boosted + mad), suspension work) and Michael, '01 Trans Am w/ basic bolt-ons)......which means we're gonna rip my car apart like some mad scientists and hopefully do a very clean install as well. Bottle is going in the trunk on the right side (adjacent to the factory sub), controls will be mounted in that little compartment where the trunk pop is, and i'll be getting a CA column mount gauge pod to house a Dyno Tune digital nitrous pressure gauge (white face/silver bezel to match the factory interior). Should be dope.

Damn sounds like it. I had to laugh about the wear hole in the mat because I have the exact same thing. As far as the house situation goes that doesn't sound half bad either. Slowswap only lives like 15 minutes away so it's not to bad. And It's very nice having the garage to do installs. I wish that more of my friends were really into cars. I guess I'll have to start hanging out with more people from here and what not.

I swear our cars keep getting more and more modded and are still practically the same car.

The EFI 4,6 Cyl kit, window switch, electronic throttle position sensor,air fuel loan out switch, digital nitrous pressure gauge, blow down tube, bottle heater, purge kit, control panel with all 4 switches (made for the vette but I'd like to custom mount it). Thats I think most of what I have. I'm buying a remote bottle opener, LM-2 wideband, and possibly some new billet bottle brackets if I have some extra cash. I'm going for the better safe than sorry theory. Add it all up and you're talking right around $2,000. But I'd have to agree Dynotune does have some good prices on stuff. Not to mention I'm a much bigger fan of having the all black and silver components than purple or blue.

Edit: The saddest part is I probably could have gotten the job done with just the $400 basic starter kit ha ha.

It's all about what works for you I guess. For me, well I just have an undying need to have more toys so I've decided to buy everything I can. Some people just like to keep it simple which is perfectly respectable.

I wish I had your kinda money, lol.

I had to take out a small loan just to get tires and have a door ding removed.

Ha ha I'm still sticking with my argument of you having 19's. But yea I can't say I have it all bad. I make pretty good money and if I'm smart about it shouldn't really have any problems making my car into what I really want. If I sold a few things I could have the thing done next month. Not seeing that happening though. I'll just buckle down for a bit. Coilovers, C/F hood and trunk, slicks or radials, and obviously the rest of the nitrous setup are all on the list and should be here by the beginning of next summer.

Haha like I said, I did most of whats done to my car while I lived with my parents two years ago. I got a few odds and ends over the past year and a half like the sway bar and trans mount bushings last Christmas from my now ex-girlfriend, and I bought the color matched hood strut, Outerwears pre-filter, Modern Performance polished oil filler cap, VHT nightshaded tails/sidemarkers, had it HP Tuners tuned, and the wingless trunk since i've been on my own.

But money is hella tight.

It doesn't sound like you're doing to bad. I wish I could move back home at times ha ha. I picked up all the nitrous stuff, drag bags, WOT box and a rhd civic hatch which I'm thinking I'd like to sell. Christmas is kind of killing me for cash flow right now though. Plus side of not having a girlfriend is that I don't have to spend any more money. And I'm bad when it comes to girls as far as spending money on them. But I do need to work on that too lol.

That looks like it should be a whole lot of fun once you finish it up.
