"what have you done to your civic today?"
cut the stock grille out of my bumper (and cut some of the plastic out of the side vents)... it looks a lot better than stock (imo).. and, no, I don't plan on putting mesh or anything in the grille... I love how it looks now
I'll get pics up when I get a new camera (and I'll throw my body kit on and get pics for you, windcalmer
)

Put the car up on jack stands, cleaned every trace of oil seepage from the underside, fired up the car, let it run for almost 30 minutes, and nothing. Nada. Zip. Zilch. No oil seepage or drips. WTF?!
While I was trying to discover oil in my driveway, I completed wiring up the El Cheapo JDM fogs I bought off ebay. I had d/l'd some installation instructions for proper JDM fogs and these were nothing like what was in the instructions. Although, the mounting instructions and cut-outs were pretty much spot-on, the wiring was completely different. I wound up using the test light and some improvising and got 'em wired up so that they function just like the real thing, except they don't cancel when the hi-beams come on - which is good enough for me.
Also cleaned the crap out of the windshield with more of the acid wheel cleaner, which got rid of more 'stuff' on the windshield, but the wiper blade scratches remain. I decided to use some Meguiar's Carnuba Cleaner Wax on the windshield, and it filled in the scratches good enough to improve outward visibility. It's still badly pitted, but at least I don't go completely blind heading into the sun. Still might see if I can get my insurance to put in new front glass.
Drove the car around for an hour or so then back into the driveway - still no oil.
Pissin' me off, it is.

Thanks bro, she'ss come a long way since I first got her. Now I need to find a rear lip and decide between a swap or boost
Finally got around to buying about 40 feet of 16 guage wire... it'll last me a while. Anyway, decided to simplify my wiring for the guages... in the end, I completely removed a good 10 feet of excess wire lol... I figured while I'm at it, I might as well re-wire my halos, since they've been disconnected for a few months. I've gotta say, I love my angel eyes lol
I think tomorrow I'll finally order my new LCA's and bolts (and maybe even a rear lip, though it won't go on the car until I get my poly front lip and abs sideskirts)...
