Don't be lame and post anti-Honda/Nissan comments. Those are cheesy. They're just goddamn cars.

Haha, the cruise was spontaneous. My friend just got a new camera and I just fixed a cooling problem so we just did it. But yeah, we were complaining about dirty cars the whole night.


Besides we've been having the randomest summer showers here in SD.

I know what you mean. These morning showers are irritating even with a freshly waxed car.

On a related note, I passed a blue FC near Mira Mesa High School on friday, was that you? May not have been; it might have been a TII, but I didn't get a good look.

No, Friday was the 12th? I just put in my thermostat that night so I didn't drive it at all that day. Sides, I probably would've seen you.

That was a friend of mine, it probably had Faded Black TII hood, odura lip, shine auto side skirts, and Apexi N1, with black painted S5 GXL Rims.

But I drive around there A LOT, considering I live nearby, so you'll see me eventually.




Can't wash my car again, it just rained this morning.

Thanks for compliments, and next time we'll wash and wax. when it stops gdamn raining.

That description sounds about right. I work nearby, so I pass through that area on the way to/from work. Your friend looked pretty excited to see another FC, which I got a kick out of. Then again, I like seeing other ones too.

...and not a lick of suspension between the lot, lol.
Funny, cuz I thought the mod progression for civics went:
1) Lower car (on cut springs)
2) Get driver's license
3) Swap wheels w/ other civic/integra
4) Exhaust
5) Get Rotas


J/k Tight work, a little wash (hell, even a quick spray w/ a hose) session would have done wonders, but the shots came out good nonetheless.

What wheels are the FC's running? Red one's look like Pontiac Grand Prix's not sure about the Gunmetal 5 spokes, but they look sweet.

Haha, EK was stolen a little back =/ ... He got it back, stripped. Anyways we need to do another session with clean cars since the rain stopped. We'll probably do one by the beginning of september.
