So I changed my oil yesterday, took me forever to get the filter off cause it was so damn tight and i was doing it by hand. After that, I was trying to teach my 15 year old brother how to drive. I was VERY patient with him as he stalled countless times. Anyways, when I was driving the car to work this morning, my speedometer went nuts. I mean i was doing like 20 and the thing was all over, jumping up to 120 and back ( I switched my cluster to an SI one and the speedo was always off) but this time is crazy. Also, driving back home I noticed that my HIDs were not turning on either. It was dark outside and I didnt feel like checking them, but any ideas what I should check first. I have the whole day off tomorrow but i need the car tomorrow night and i dont want to get pulled over for the damn headlights. Please help !!!!

very nice work
Thanks, the wheels are back to black now. the gold paint was mad cheap and faded bad. I also took the Si wing off cause it's so faded too, the clear is coming off and i think it looks bad.

Okay, dpt0415 what rims are those you have? I love them and think they would look great on my black ex but don't know what brand or name they are.

I ask my self the same question. I've even ask here on the forums. Idk wth they are. google "tracklite drives" the ones with 10 spokes, they look just like mine.

:thumbs up

Looks like you went with 96-98 OEM headlights (or OEM style). Good choice. Paint the upper grill (if you haven't yet) and both lips. They don't flow with paint matched side skirts at all.
