Damn, for the cost of that Phantom kit, plus the additional costs for coilovers, might as well save for the full air system....

Completely forgot that I got the tires at Discount Tire Direct. Lol

So I just got off the phone with them, they pulled up my order, I explained what happened and they said they would ship the new one out today. All I had to do is buy a new replacement plan for the new tire ($13) and dispose of the old tire after I get it changed. Talk about easy!

They have always treated me very well!

Yeah, this is my first time using them. I was always a TireRack guy but so far they def got my vote just from this incident alone.

True but if you already have coils, saving the coin for a full air system (which most people won't do because performance purists will never get air) is just crazy. The setup is a "hybrid" of sorts.

At least replacing an alternator is easy.

Got a response back from Ultrashine, they can paint my bumper but not modify the holes for the fogs. Found a place in Brookline Nh that does custom bodywork, sent along an email..*fingers crossed* so mostly research today

Had my tire swapped today... Fo free! Cheesy

My buddy gave me the tire and told me to hold onto it. The gash is in the sidewall but he said its just a light shave and didnt go down to the belts or anything.

Yup, I was never interested in riding on air. And in so, I've never looked at the full cost of converting to a full air system.

I just looked at the pricing on the Phantom kit again. It went down.. When I was looking into it, it would have cost almost $5k for front and rear.

I've always taken that a nice set of coilovers plus the Phantom kit would cost more than an airbag setup. Well, let's be honest, some coilover systems will cost way more than a full air system: http://www.gotuning.com/product_info.php?fPath=S2000_3_138&products_id=810

Why did you order a new buckle? You know that all Honda buckle/seat belts has a lifetime warranty. So, you can take it to the dealer and have them replace it for you for free.
