And addiction, I'm not 100% sure I'm selling it anymore... I've been thinking about the driveability of a boosted rwd car in the winter, not to mention the problems an 18 year old car will have.  In the long run, I think just keeping my civic and swapping to a 5-speed (and maybe boosting it soon) would be better.  If I don't have a buyer by like wednesday, I'll probably just keep the ej1. _____________________________ My car - for sale!

I think I'm going to do it... the nice thing about the paint I'll be using is that from some angles, it looks black, but then head-on, it looks blue.  I think it'll turn out well... and if I don't like it, it's $20 to repaint them again  thanks again _____________________________ My car - for sale!
