I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Got the boost leaks fixed finally!!! Gonna try to reorder that bumper tomorrow. What a pita! One shop said theyd have one for me today so I called and they said they are still in port on the container and should have them tomorrow or Friday. Another shop asked me to call them back as they were on the other line. Then I told him to call me and he said that was cool and then never called. I NEVER had any problems ordering anything until this bumper BS. Whatever...

Good point.

I reordered today from a vendor out of AZ and they ship DHL so hopefully it gets here in good condition and promptly. If I get it even as late as Thursday I bet I can get everything done in time to show it off at the Richland Fire Hall show. :D

Decided to forget the JDM rear bumper for now and use the money towards my next purchase. My most expensive one by far to date as well. I need new tires again soon anyway so I decided to get these:

If I have any money after that I will then get the spats, rear lights, and rear bumper shown here:

Went to the AMS meet in DC yesterday and man so many sick cars! Mucho SBC Advans too! I am totally sold on the RGIIs! I also sent out my last check today so these wheels might happen by spring. I am so happy I paid my car off today. It is the biggest accomplishment of my life so far. :) I am going to try and save but if I can put some away on the side I am so doing the black chrome RGIIs! I hope you will all see them at Carlisle next spring. :D
