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

well this is my last week @ my current job.
i start earth tech June 1st. nervous yet excited. car is to a point now its going to have to sit on hold until i get comfortable at the new job. then i will be getting my hands dirty again and ordering up some things to finish things.

got to make money to spend it.

also those mirrors im a little hesitant on them now, the guy sent me pics of the stone chip. he said its on the clear coat not the carbon but i don't know. i wanted a mint set, doubtful i will find a new set since they have been discontinued for so long but here are the stone chip pics, not sure if its possible to fix.

test fit the spacer today, great quality and fitment.
snapped a shot with my iphone. grainy 2.0mp cam, check.
Image there is a small mark on the cmc that im going to try and scrub off, came like that. not sure what its from, possibly something from the casting, might just need a good scrubbing. other then that. im happy with the setup. still need to order the lines.

i also start my new job tomorrow. super nervous yet pretty anxious.
