thanks man, im tradeing my steelies for the 4th si, has an acura center but its all good. i also picked up automotive paint stripper to get the clear coat off of the rims. and new fuel filter whic i think is causing the bad idle from old gas and it looks like its never been changed.

- Thu Sep 15, 2011 10:41 pm #272213 soo just got back from picking up the other si! its like mint with no curbrash. it has a hankook 195-55-15 but need a plug ti;l i get a new tire.it should effect anything if i run tht tire in the rear right? since its slightly different in size? and also snagged a coupe front bumper tht needs a lil tlc for 30 bucks! its solid but needs a lil touch up. its flat black but faded. already has holes for the fogs but gonna get some nice ek fogs that i saw online and retrofitting them :) also another big update! have an interview at a local garage tomorrow so wish me luck maybe i can get some after hours on the lift or something :thumb:

- Sat Sep 17, 2011 3:51 am #272457 thanks guys, i did the fuel filter today and it looked like it wasnt ever changed and it was a biotch to get it off haha. also plugged the tire on the 4th si i picked up yesterday. only difference is that i need to get a tire for tht rim because i dont really like plugs they dont seem safe enough and tht tires ehh anyways. half bald hankook, and tht si has an acura center cap? im so glad i got the coupe front bumper! im probably doing some plastic welding on it tomorrow and fixing where the foglights go. i dont know why but i was starting to think about painting the si's with the gunmetal grey wheel paint and the inserts with be black and the actual lip will be white or polished?
