I volenteer to go last with the installation since I just have sidemarkers! Why can't we have the meet at Jason's (accord) house and then have another meet at gimmie's house a couple weeks later? Just a thought. I know I will have more stuff to install by then. I'm down for anything.

K to the people that don't understand what gimme and all the other concerned fitfreaks are thinking....Even though you have persuaded your parents in the past jason, it doesn't mean that your parents won't flip a 180 and kick the people who have taken the day off to attend the meet. The fitfreakers, especially gimme which is the most important one with the tools, want a 100% answer. So the solution is to tell your mom straight up that 12+ fits are going to raid your house with the intention to mod their cars . This way if your mom is fine with it then gimme and the others will be at ease. If not then the meet will be at gimme's house because 0-60 mile drive is nothing when you are getting work on your fit done for lets say 15 bux at most which is the cost of gas.

So to summarize this post up, Jason just tell your mom the truth so that everyone will be at ease...

*Just wanted to help out since it seemed like this was going no where with an unsure meet up spot. Hope this clears and helps organize the meet*

dude i can bring some BOOOOMMBBB A$$ carne asada like no other... + chicken

oo btw i agree with umiekun .... i mean i dont know .. i mean what if some of us have tattoos or what nots.. ( i dont ) but i know asian parents trip on that pretty crazy sometimes... i mean after all have you met all of us?... i mean just a precaution you should ask your parents and get the OK first..

Have all the tools needed for the jobs at ahnd and my wife will be gone to Vegas for the weekend and i will have my kids (11 and 6). I am just looking for a worry free day where we can work on cars, have a few beers, eat some bbq food and have a final photo shoot. that's it! Like my dad used to do back in the 60's with their hot rods, now turned honda-rods....less the photographic abilities.

once again, not here to step on anyone's toes. Just want this to be an enjoyable experience is all.

that's all i was looking for TBH. was an absolute approval so there aren't any suprises for us OR your parents.

i am still more then willing to lug my tools there. i just want this to be beneficial and fun for us all. :beer:

okay so i havent gotten to ask my dad yet because he went to play billiards with some friends BUT i have the perfect reason for you all to come... I'm going to be enrolled in Auto Tech I and also Auto Performance/Customization when school starts in a week so i can tell him that you guys were gonna install some parts on your cars and offered to install it at my house so that i can get a better understanding of suspension components etc. Since this helps in school they will definitely like the idea! I will try to ask my dad ASAP! just trying to find the right time to ask. But academic lessons is definitely FTW!

2nd that....

honestly, if you need to find an excuse in order for us to come over... that makes me feel that regularly your parents aren't quite fond of the idea of ppl coming over to your house... especially 15 strangers.. with FITs.

well, who can honestly say their parents are perfectly fine with 15 fits at one house? Being asian i think bringing the education factor really lighten things up. I will be straight-forward with him about the matter but i will also point out that it could be useful for my classes

okay i'll ask him sunday, cause sunday is family hang-out day so i'll definitely have time to tell him

If they tap into the parking brake/sidemarker light then shouldn't be hard.
Just kinda scary to cut into the fenders

Lmao, Okay I knew this would turn up somewhere on here. I have the sidemarkers installed on my car . That being said, its not a install for the faint of heart. Your risking brand new fenders for lights . JUNIOR will be installing his and if his go well maybe he can help you cut them, Id be more than happy to wire them up for any of you. Just the cutting is shaky on someone elses ride. Also if anyone needs the template, just Pm me. I have the correctly sized one (the other ones on here are the incorrect DC5 template and are way too small).
