I really don't think it was the same people. If it was, then they completely changed up their game.

Does anyone have the 99-00 center console bezel for the dash? Like where the A/C controls and stereo go.

Why stop at just stealing the console piece? Why not find some grandma'd Civic, steal it, and leave her mine!

I'd leave a note, of course. "Hope you don't mind, but your Civic said it would be happier with me. I have left you mine. He has lived a full life and is ready to retire, just like you have"

Glad to hear that! Looking forward to some pics of it rolling around again with everything back in!

I would have pics, but I've been busy designing/fixing/racing FSAE cars! My car has kinda gotten the shaft lately...

Here's the FSAE car I drove this weekend. It is the team of 2012's car at University of New Mexico. It weighs in at just under 500 lbs. Has the engine from a Yamaha Phazer snowmobile, and a CVT for drivetrain.

0-60 in a touch over 4 seconds, but this thing is about going around turns I think the highest recorded (dynamic) G's pulled in a turn for this car is 2.5. Needless to say, it's quite an experience to drive
