Just worked all day on the flightline. Got red and slightly dehydrated. Ate dinner and now it's 830pm here and about to pass out for the night. Doing the same thing tomorrow.

in the spirit of labor ... I spent all day finishing up an A-Spec install on the TL-S, then I washed it too.

My hands are killing me. :wtc:

The sides are also A-Spec, it's hard to tell in these shots though. They taper in hard and flare out quite a bit creating a 1.5in ledge right under the door.

My hands are f*cking killing me. There's really no need for the bajillion bolts and screws on these things, but I'm guessing it's for anti-theft measures.

Thanks!

I also did the Accord's kit and that one was a nightmare. There were no premarked drill spots, so I had to use supplied paper templates and masking tape.

This one did suck some major ass though. The rear bumper needed 9 holes, the front needed 4. After drilling, trying to fit this crap in wasn't fun either. Couldn't flex the parts too much in fear of spider webbing the paint.

The last piece of flare is dropping an "A-Spec" emblem on the trunk lid soon.
