I only JUST realized that you meant there were no Type R sedans with the bug eye face! Real "D-oh!" moment for me there lol..

Exhaust looks good, how does it sound? And the all important question, do we have a date of completion finally?

Err yes, that was what I was trying to say all this time!! And no machan. No date yet. Althought mechanicals are done, car needs a respirator on the dented quarter panel and a cut and polish. Which I assumed would take the best part of next week as well

[Komisiripala]

Lol no respray. Not a respirator!!

[Komisiripala]

Update. Painter is back. And with him the stormy weather...

Rest all finished. Now it's a matter of

1. Fixing the dent

2. Waiting for the paint to cure

3. Cut and polish

This could take two weeks, given current weather and painter attendance/health/other petty excuses

Mind you it doesn't mean I get the car back after that and it's all hunky dory. Afterwards theres a

1. Day at Bara to sort out ICE

2. Alignment

3. Insurance photo update

4. Service plus interior cleanup/armorall coating

How I wish I had her this Sunday... Would have been the best b'day present ever!

[maheshw]

all the best komi

[Komisiripala]

Thanks machan.

Update: dent fixed. And painted. Waiting for paint to cure to start cut and polish...

Dont worry you will have the money soon!

i suspect there's one too many joyrides happening at the garage. today i'm being told that two of my lug nuts are missing. funny, wonder how that happened. seriously, wtf??

anyways, the front quarterpanel was resprayed, and here she is, awaiting a cut and polish, which begins tomorrow.

and here's a shot of the grounding kit.

the intake sounds a little raspy, but that exhaust note, oh god that exhaust note from the apexi is to die for!
