Strangely enough the gear was fine but the motor was bad.

It got rained on.

This week the side molding, Formula emblems, drivers side mirror and Ram Air decals were installed.

I was finally able to grab a daytime shot since it decided to stop raining over here for a while. This gives a better idea of what it looks like than the last pic.

I wrecked mine the other day. I was playing around in it and spun it around into a ditch. I scraped up n scratched the front bumper, but, fortunately, nothing was cracked and I already had plans to get it repainted next year anyway.

It was the first wreck I ever caused and had to be in my best vehicle.

changed my oil, fixed the drivers side fender mounting tab (you know where some shop jacked it up wrong) and bent the passenger side tab back to shape (it was folded flat inside) but that was just for the sake of doing it that one got broken by the last shop that lifted it. then I cleaned the wheels and tires and rinsed the loose dust off the car, they "tar and chipped" the 3+ miles of road I have to drive to work every day last week so It's like living on a dirt road again.

you guys remember my nasty *** brake fluid from a few weeks ago, well my brother clutch master cylinder may be failing again in his prelude and we had to bleed the system again so he can drive it to work in the morning (like we did the last time when he ended up replacing the clutch master cylinder) well I used that same bottle when bleeding out his system and what you see in the bottom of the bottle in these pics is what came out (FYI when held up to a light the black fluid turns green but see thru to the eye, and the milky green that came out of his turns black, the camera flash just causes the colors to appear how they do.) the stuff from his is just nasty.

Dropped my A4 Shift handle down half an inch, used the clamp grooves .5" down the handle stick as a guide. It was pretty easy, did it with a dremel tool cutting wheel and took my time, about 1.5 hrs to cut everything, match the original grooves and fit. Funny only .5" was dropped but looks like a lot more! I'm glad I didn't drop any more.
