I agree, but I was never a big fan of eyebrows. I did see one set on a car that looked really clean. I also seen a set of lower brows now too. They make the lights look good, but when you get up on it, you obviously can still tell they are eyebrows. Hard to make a decision on that. I might just take the lights apart and paint them black inside so they don't stand out so much :-\

Thanks Noel. Unfortunately, I have not done squat on the 240 in months. The car is in storage, the motor sits in the garage on a stand next to my wifes car which was stored in there during the winter. On top of that I have just not been motivated to work on it.
I am hoping to get the car over to the shop soon so I can work on it during down time. Some kid is suppossed to buy my KA soon, I hope he does because pulling it will hopefully be motivation to get working on the damn car. :-\

word, theres something about black housings that it very classy. on my Solara they make the whole car come together very nicely. black housings on a red car with smoked rear turns. looks good.

you could always mold the eyebrows tho. on ebay i saw these black housings w/ custom eyebrows for a 92-96 prelude where the dude molded the eyebrows with the vents on the side of the lights. ---- was sick as ----, but he didnt wanna sell just the brows. focker.

but def black them bitches.

Well, I got the car inspected today and it passed ;D I did get pulled over on the way to the inspection because I did not have any license plates on the car. Seeing as how I was like 25 minutes from the inspection station, the cop said..."yea, we get a lot of these through here" He checked the VIN and sent me on my way. Then on the way back, some clown was yelling at me about not having plates on the car and followed me for like 20 miles....we get into the same town that I got pulled over in and he see's a cop on the side of the road and pulls over next to him to "rat me out" but it must have been the same cop cause he never moved, lol. So, I get the car back home, get the title set, get a temp tag and head off to the e-check station. The car was running a little rough and I was concerned, but it passed e-check with no problem. I get it back to the shop and swap in my EX cluster and fire it up to make sure it works.....few seconds later....CEL!! I was thanking god it did not happen when I was at the e-check station. I checked the code, it was for the O2 heater circuit on the 1st O2 sensor....damnit, I just replaced the second one :-\ I reset the code and I put some new OEM plugs, wires, cap and rotor, checked the timing, made a minor adjustment and the car is running a lot smoother. The CEL did come back on again a little later and I cleared it again and it has not come back on the last three times I have driven the car....so maybe I will be lucky, but I doubt it, prolly end up replacing that one too. Anyway, the car is legit now, just have to figure out what to do with her. I think for now, I will just be driving it while I get my ass moving on my SR swap in the 240.

Oh yea....we bought a 2003 Civic EX 5 spd from the salvage yard. It got dropped off today. It's hit in the right front, should be a fairly easy fix. I have an appointment to get it inspected in 2 weeks. Hoping to sell it for around $10k give or take. Anybody looking for a new car ;)

Re: Another Project Car
 

I'll buy it for $5k :-*

Re: Another Project Car
 

i see cars w/o plates all the time here in Vegas, so often its ------- ridicolous

Re: Another Project Car
 

Hey, money talks and in PA it would no longer have a salvage title. I'll even deliver it ;)

Yea, I see them occassionally, but I don't go looking for cops to tell, lol. That guy was just being a tool.
