Nada, car is about to get a lil interior revamp.
Kickin a few ideas around right now.
I guess the newest stuff I've added is an OEM front lip, Origin spoiler, tires, and HIDs. Nothing too big, but car looks good. Hopefully I can get some good rolling shots one of these days.
Lol yes!

I had the same trouble trying to find a shop to do an alignment on my previous red SC, i finally found this old skool hole in the wall shop that had an old pit style setup, sucks cause i end up paying like $80 everytime, but like you found out SC's without a descent aligment will chew up tires hella quick. I hate through a brand new set once in a month myself. 
sucks when they are brand new TOYO's!

No no no. I don't remember how many miles I got on those. The 50 miles I had on a new set started to chew the tire up. It wasn't near as bad as that was though!
? I didn't have one before. I have a Origin one on now, but thats not pictured.
Milt knows whats up.
I think the headgasket is ok, probably seen better days though. It still runs, and takes all my abuse.
I ended up at a Acura dealership. They got the alignment done, for a pretty penny.
Anyways... I'm gonna lower the car more, its lower already then all the other pictures. Got the tire sizes corrected, so it sits nicer. I also installed some 4300k HIDs, a Origin roof wing... and thats about it so far. Just a daily beater. Getting ready for some body work and paint in the near future.
