sadly yes, my stock SI rims were taken. i was going to get some Volk CE28N's, but opted for a set of SI rims again for $200. it works out in the end. i dont have to deal with more attention. ill have 2 key locks now.

I have four locks. Fuck lowell, they're not getting my Si's!

Awesome pick up on that rear bumper.

 

[JDMxDB8]

Nice pick up Jimmy. Good idea with the multiple wheel locks. I'd get an aftermarket security system with motion sensors too.

 

[Samurai_Blue]

motion sensor is so annoying but useful...

creepy but yes. haha. i believe i had a BNIB OEM timing belt somewhere. not sure if it would have worked on your car though. i had it lying around in the basement where i brother lives now so he probably gave it away. would've gave it to you for dirt cheap.

thanks for the congrats guys. the shop i had my car fixed at was LEGENDS AUTO BODY in Lowell, MA for future reference. i can tell you the shop owner wasnt happy about the bodyman allowing me to take the bumper for nothing. but in the end he didnt give a damn.

I believe I will be using a GSR water pump, but it's okay. I'll be purchasing a full kit from MPR with the timing belt and water pump included with the LS/VTEC kit.

The car looks goood. Sunny (this guy that lives in Lowell) has a silver one that is slammed.
