[Updated: 09/14/07]
[09/14/07] I bought a 2004 Honda CBR 600 F4i. Plain and simple, I have no time for my car. I've spent all my time and money on the bike since the day I got it (Aug 2nd). Check it out, tell me what you think!
[06/04/07] I recently bought a whitewater kayak. The boat was $250, the skirt was $120, the paddle was $75, and the roof rack for my car was $400. So, I spent $845 and I don't even have my own helmet and vest yet. So, needless to say I don't have wheels for the summer yet. My baby got put on the back burner because I'm having so much fun with my kayak.
My Vis hood has lasted for a while, but is "less than show quality" to say the least. There are cracks in it (probably from having it on in the middle of winter). I am thinking if getting the Seibon version of the EVO hood. Tell me what you think..............(image courtesy of Missionx96x)
I also would like to get a pair of oem carbon fiber fenders and possibly a carbon fiber front bumper. That would give me a complete carbon fiber front clip. With my newfound sport/addicion, I hope to have at least the hood and fenders by Spring 2008.
Tell me what you think of the ideas!

[4/29/07] I was going to sell the car, but I'm keeping her. Including the loan for the car, and all the repairs I have done; I have put over $10k into this thing. I can't just let it go for less than $4k. What a waste! I'm going to buy a used engine, and build it up with a internals and a turbo in my spare time. Then, once it's all finished, I'll swap it with mine.

[3/07] My new plates came in, the look pretty sick. Have a look...

[3/07] I just got new plates for the Eclipse. They say "CRBNFBR". I will get them in the mail in about 4 weeks. They won't say Custom Vehicle, but they'll look something like this...
[12/06] Check out these two pics. Looks almost too low, huh?
[11/06] Oh, and it wouldn't pass inspection, so I had to wait on the rims. I got a cat-back exhaust system from Holley. The Airmass ThunderMUFF, haha.
[8/06] Car just came out of the shop. It was there from June 29th to August 26th. She got a timing belt, valve job, head planing, new gasket set, plugs, fluids, and some other minor stuff. Runs beautifully now, and my bank account hasn't stopped crying yet. My mom decided to get me the wheels I've been talking about for my birthday, which happens to be today(8/28). So I think it'll be a week or two until they're in. Check back for updates.
[2/06] Well, here's the latest addition to my family. She's a 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS. I bought the car as you see it. There's not much for aftermarkets, but it'll do for now. Let me know what you think...
P.S. These are just the dealer photos, but I live in Maine and it's winter here. So I'll post more when it gets sunny again.

Three things I like: Carbon Fiber hood, Black Projector Headlights, and a Power Sunroof...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And one that I didn't like: The d-bag that owned it before me installed a "carbon fiber" dash kit(from Wal-Mart I believe). It's just fake looking stickers.
