Hi all! My name is Stephanie and I've been on the forums for some time now. I was on 8th as well when I had my '11 LX coupe. I made the huge mistake of trading that in for my "dream" car, an 09 vw gti. First 6 months were awesome and after that it was in the shop on a bi-monthly basis for anything you could think of (catalytic converter, wheel bearing, cyl 1 misfire then two months later cyl 1 3 & 4 misfire, fuel pump, intake mani, and an intermittent water pump issue among tons of electrical bs as well). Buried my negative equity into my now '13 LX sedan 5spd. I am counting down the days until I turn it in for an si. I also recently got my fiancé a black '13 EX auto that seems to have been made on a Friday.
Anyways, I'll use these boards often for a reference! Thanks to all who have helped thus far and those that will in the future!

Thank you! I do, he doesn't. I'm looking to get a catback exhaust for my car at the moment. What do you guys think of aFe?? H&R lowering springs after winter, a nice set of HID.s and LED DRL's. Mostly cosmetic stuff for now. I might steel the EX wheels and swap mine out :thumbsup:

np. i personally love afe/takeda im runing their "retain" sri now and i swear by it. seeing you have a non si your options for exhausts isnt AS large (especially if your not looking for a fart cannon). if your looking for ideas for anything cosmetic or not take a look at the build threads here and feel free to start your own. also here is a link to the exhaust/downpipe section of the site as well.
