new curb feelers 8)

my moms boyfriend found this laying in the walmart parking lot lol and since my flowmaster was pretty much falling off I figured it hit this can with some steel wool for a little shine and slap it on. sounds alright not raspy like the flow was and no leaks like the flow.
Image
actually fits quite perfectly and doesnt look too bad. not to me anyway. I love free stuff

awhile back I ordered some Innovative mounts from PasswordJDM during one of their online sales... saved me $30 I got them for around $245 shipped so the savings pretty much canceled out the shipper cost. I was pretty excited to finally replace the sloppy ass excuse for mounts in my car...
2 weeks later they arived..
Image
notice anything wrong?.... the tranny mount is the auto-manual coversion mount. so i called and bitched and of course well get that taken care of right away sir!!!

so 1 week to ship
1 week to get here
1 week for them to send me a shipping label to send the wrong one back
1 week for it to get there
3 weeks before they shipped it out
and 1 more week for the correct mount to finally arrive today :x :x :x
Image

now Im happy. it only took 8 weeks lol

I used to go by trailer trash but i dont use it for much other than the PA anymore. all my buddies used to have CBs but not anymore :thumbdown:

I'm trying to figure out something different for the hood since i cant find a nice one to paint white. I want a simple yet creative/unique design, simbol, ect that can be done with spray paint... any colors. pretty sure im taking the wheels to white this weekend if I can find something for the hood that will stand out. if not just white wheels and black hood for now.

I mounted it right next to the cupholder. its just a little $40 Cobra from walmart. I just took the one mounting screw out for the center console and used that to mount the cb bracket. no cutting things up at all. then I just ran the wires up behind the ashtray piece and behind the dash to a hot and ground. they are very hard to notice without getting down there and looking. and the antenna cable is ran under the center console, under the back seat, up under the rear deck underneath the speakers, up the trunk mounting arm, and out from behind the plate mount thing and out from behind the plate itself. no cutting drilling anything like that. then since it didnt have a Honda badge anyway there were 2 holes so thats where I mounted the whip base. fits perfectly and doesnt look like a hack job :thumb:
