How bad is your bumber? If Joey can get me in and fitted for my new bumper you can look at mine and see if your interested. PM me your number ill get a hold of you later today.

Mine will need some touch ups but since its already off he might be able to do them both at the same time.

Yeah that's how I got out of honda scene, hydrolocked my rsx-s, motor was going to cost me more than I owed on car, sold it for 2800 and payed it off.
That's why I have been looking into the NISMO CAI, comes with that hydro shield.

And I'm looking for aftermarket parts (used). The reason I'm asking in here is because it is always easier dealing with local stuff. Any intake, exhaust, or suspension parts would be great. Maybe even wheels.

Yea so test pipes bring more power, and are cheaper than HFC's , but I hear they give you kind of a cheap raspy 4 banger sound, is this true with all of them.

Most of them will. They delete most baffles and are essentially putting straight pipes in your exhaust. Without some sort of diversion the sound is not only louder but also nothing to break up the waves which causes the rasp which i refer to as the srt4 noise with that dumb rumble they have.

Another thing to look at is that some test pipes allow a gas smell that will be present at certain points when driving.

Yes... i have the HKS and when i put test pipes on... it sounded good as sh*t while idling... but once you got on it.. raspy as hell, sounded like a straight piped v6 mustang... ( i'm sure every one has heard one or two).. i went and put on resonators right away... stock cats and HKS sounds pretty good... I forgot who has them.. mine now sounds just like a louder VQ sound.. not ricer
