Pulled my front bumper off and noticed my pass side headlight bulb is blown. Ordered replacement D1S bulbs from DDM, and a replacement bulb for one of the interior LEDs that has gone.

Also, PM me your email deadcivic.

PMd you.

Does a plate in the front window fly in Oregon with the cops? It's like moths to a flame here with the cops and meter maids.

dead civic 11-16-2013 10:43 PM

well. I've been driving with no plate. never got stopped a whole year.

But putting it there puts me on edge. I feel like it might draw more attention there than no plate at all. Oh well. we'll see I'm a few days from mounting it anyways. I'm sure it's not up to par tho.

TeamSorad 11-16-2013 11:33 PM

no plate is better than a plate in the windshield, they see it in the windshield and pull you over for not having it down in front.

dead civic 11-16-2013 11:44 PM

I agree. I'll pull it off tomorrow morning. Crazy how it works but it goes along with if your gonna do wrong do it right.

I drove my Cadillac to a free BBQ at the Cadillac dealership, and ate myself two free Hamburgers.

I got 5 free Lottery Tickets just for showing up, and I got a $50 Gift Card to a swanky restaurant for test driving a new 2.0T 2014 CTS.

IT VIBRATES YOUR BUTT WHEN YOU'RE BACKING UP!

Then I did a nice 1-2 pull in front of the dealership while leaving.

Gotta douche it up on the way out!

ryridesmotox 11-17-2013 03:59 AM

Lol douche it up. Nice. I run no plate here in California. They are traffic Nazis. I have never run a plate on any if my cars. And I have yet to be rung up for it. They usually get me for speeding and I try not to hassle them too much. Around here, the more you piss of a cop, the longer your list of fines becomes.

Ordered 60lbs injectors.

Pulling off the front bumper to install a plate relocater is over kill
Just jack the front up and take the lower skip plate/air dam off.

Started my cam/heads upgrade...

Yesterday I took the V to the local GM dealership to have a P0420 code cleared, hopefully a new cat ordered, and program my VIN into the newly installed CTS base model radio before the big audio installation. They tried to tell me the radio was going to need to be pulled and that it would cost $150. I laughed and said forget it. Two hours later they called and said they weren't going to be able to look at the car. Thanks for taking the appointment then.

Today I pulled my wife's car out of the garage and parked the V inside before the hail storm shows up in a few hours. :lol:

MotorMounts 11-17-2013 12:52 PM

Sorry to say, but thought I'd be the first to admit it. The closest I got to the V today was while I walked past it. Damn neighbor cat! Foot prints up the hood and over the top.

I sat in it, and wished it had a procharger :(

rand49er 11-17-2013 07:23 PM

Vac'd it out, applied a leather cleaner/conditioner to the seats, removed the dust from the exterior using one of those paraffin mops, hooked it up to a battery tender, put the cover on it, and rocked it to sleep till some time next spring. :cry:

incubusjunkie614 11-17-2013 08:22 PM

I watched mine get rained on all day, thanks Midwest November tornado storm

dead civic 11-17-2013 09:57 PM

fak that 150 to pull the radio. Dealers have no shame at all.

Today I douched out [like: ryridesmotox] lol. I down shifted on a v6 new camaro and redlined past him.... for being a dick my shift knob fucking popped off lol.

It felt so good to finally just gun she shit out of mine for once. NO traction... but good. :)
