I haven't been on this forum much because of the inactivity of most the guests here but what the hell, lets see who's still out there.

So the past few months have been a nightmare. Hit a deer with beloved in December. Went into the shop to get a new bumper, headlight housing, radiator and obviously paint. Picked the car up a few weeks later and the color of the front end is kinda off, I could deal with... except 100 miles down the road my engine decides to scatter. Car never overheated or at least that the gauge read. Insurance, Suzuki, nor the shop that did the cooling system and replaced the parts during the deer incident will stand behind it so I'm stuck paying 3k out of pocket to get an engine put in :evil: any way... here she is.

Love your car! Looks like it's almost ready for some rally stages! Interesting engine compartment treatment! Sorry about your motor, good luck with the repair.

What was your old user name?

Still about as many active people as ever, but there has been a lot of turnover in the last year. I haven't had much time to dedicate lately either.

We are basically flat on traffic at this point, and I don't think that will change a lot.

Car is looking good considering what you have done to it.

Well that's a little bizarre in its circular logic, but okay.

Nice car, sorry to hear about your problems. What did you do with the corner lights, just tint them with spray tint?

I'm digging the mud flaps. I've always been a fan of them, but could never justify getting them on either car I've owned lol They do look good on the Kizashi though, the way you have them.

Thanks guys! Maybe it was me just being naive and upset that there's not much aftermarket community so I just lost hope. Also haven't been on here much since my Kizzy was my daily while I was in the Honda Game for a while :lol: Finally over that fad though and time to put money and energy into a real car. Glad to see it's alive and well here!

Pics below are shamelessly from my past (although i sometimes miss 5 speed)

Figured I'd give you guys a run down of what I have done to my car as well.

H&R lowering springs
Muffler Delete (2" straight pipe)
Rally Armour Mudflaps (Universal fit)
BBS CH-R Wheels 18x8.5 et42
Hydrographed Wood Grain engine plastics
Rhino Rack Roof Bar (Universal Fit)

Currently working on fiber glassing custom lips
Making a wood roof basket
Will be carbon fiber wrapping the fenders since the miss match paint from the fender to the door post is driving me insane. (its ever so subtle but I'm a perfectionist.) Pic below is previous to the H&R Lowering Springs
