Car feels better/tighter....
 
I still can't believe there isn't ANY jack points on the car, other than the usual 4 corner, OEM jack locations.
 
rear diff brace/chassis (not cover), front subframe sides where it reaches the frame rail.

We couldn't figure out the front even after looking for pics. Ended up using a conbimation of ramps and stock jack. Never oused anything like the BMW stock jack. Mike gave me a quick rundown on it.
 
The bemer got a nice detail today....prob could of used a more coarse pad but it will do for now, kinda rushed it today. I would like to have the front bumper re-sprayed.....it needs it.

Some before pics....

Ordered some new HID bulbs....one is dying/giving out a yellowish output. Got some 5000k morimoto bulbs for $50 from theretrofitsource.com. Didn't go with the Phillips "+" bulbs since the output was a little too "yellow" for my taste on the Si. Osrams are too expensive.

My order of Forever Black came in last night. Will try to apply the stuff this weekend, hopefully.
 
TSX projectors with the Phillips non "+" bulbs in 4300k. One of those bulbs went out so I got new Phillips bulbs which were the "+" in 4300k but they seemed to be a liitle more yellow than the non "+" ones.
 
car is looking good, and i agree about the + bulbs they were too yellow for me too
