Hey there. I post a lot on Honda-tech and have mostly used this forum to look for parts over the past few years. I plan on being a bit more active here as well as on Honda-tech.

I drive a stock engine 2000 taffeta hatch. I have full suspension/wheels etc with a rear disc swap waiting to go on and an s2000 front brake setup. Hoping to start auto-crossing this spring/summer when I get some free time.

I'm a newscaster at a radio station so between news casts I tend to browse forums a bit while I'm at work from 5:30am-10am. I also wait tables on the weekend for play money.

Will post pictures once my car gets out of the body shop. Exterior is minty, just getting the door handles, new 99-00 front lip, side moldings, side skirts, etc all paint matched.

Cheers!

-Adam

Car is still in the shop :(

I got the trim pieces paint matched and my oem front lip paint matched as well. The new point obviously looks better than the old paint and looked like it didn't match. So now I'm having the paint shop guy buff/polish/restore the old paint.

Got her back from the body shop yesterday. Had all the stuff paint matched, new lip, mirrors, and had my paint restored and the headlights re-finished. I was amazed at how much better my headlights work
