getting bored of it to be honest... the reason i'm keeping it however is that for me to get any other car up to where my car is at now would cost far to much money then its worth... not to mention $3000 into an h22 and not many cars will be able to touch it

man, you change your mind more often than I do laundry. really, this is what you need to do... write down your plan on a peice of paper, or better yet, make a spreadsheet. Stick to your plan, work towards it bit by bit. Save for rims, I've pretty much had everything planned out very early on. There has been times when I digressed from my plans, and that cost me time and money, but generally I've stayed on the right path. Slowly but surely, my Civic will be just what I had envisioned back in 1998. So take a good long look at your car, and realistically plan your budget and parts. Stick to that. Sometimes it has taken 3-4 years to get the part I want, but I ultimately get it... like the EL tails took hella long, the armrest took hella long... as did the folding mirrors and the lockless handles. I imagine there will be many other parts that will wait YEARS before I can get them, but it's all fun! Biggest mistake is settling for less 
that cost money
