Did the full SLP headers to tips exhaust, CAI, short throw shifter, TSP CAM setup, BMR rear cradle and diff bushings, Pfadt rear trailing and toe, lingenfelter 3.70 gears, ZL1 fuel pump, custom dyno tune, elite engineering tunnel brace and catch can, Eibach pro lowering kit, Foose wheels, Nitto Motivos, gorilla locks , replaced the tail lights with painted OEM ones, billet aluminum black out bowties, windows tinted, Viper alarm, X-3 harness, Kicker 1000.1 amp with two Kicker Comp 12s, and more crap I am sure I am forgetting. Almost everything is done except the tune and the wheels being mounted.

When I get a new job and move though - will be paying for a winter driver and prob using that more. I'm pushing 55k on Cherry right now - I don't want her to fall apart :(
55k, wow, that's a lot. should trade in for a 2013

I could never trade Cherry - the idea makes me

She means more then just "sweet I have an awesome car" to me.

I worked at a honda dealer as a car washer before.. I had to take a truck to go get parts one time.. they were unloading the new model civics off a truck and some sales guy came up in my blind spot behind me and i backed into the new car.. left a nice square gash in the fron bumper.. but it was an 04 Silverado that I was driving.. take that honda.
