Which wheel is that on the far left? :suspicious:

Picked up this 2000 Sir over the weekend for $5k, I probably overpaid but the market is pretty dry for older Hondas. It’s rebuilt status and has sick wheels.

The ICBC vehicle report didn’t tell me much

What a cool gf and mom! Sounds like a keeper!

Brutal drive up, lots of road closures and wasted time driving. 1500+km :( my cars definitely hurting

What are those track days like? Pay $400, drive 1500km for 1 hr of driving?

Not sure how much this past week was but the last few i went to it was $80 and a ~10 hour round trip for 30 mins of seat time. Seems like a lot of driving for little seat time but not many places to drive on a sheet of ice in a competition like setting. I felt it was worth it. The drive up was sketchy but a good podcast list, energy drinks, and snacks made it tolerable

It’s like any autocross really… it’s kind of a social thing too and in this case just an experience… for me I never drove in ice before so it’s not just about seat time.

But don't you live in the lower mainland :troll:

Yes but it’s not of a frozen lake variety haha

Where is this?

Barnes Lake near Ashcroft

I'll stick with industrial parks lol

Anyone got recommendations for wheel refinishing?
I've just picked up a AP2V1s with dinged up clear coat and some curb rash.

I heard Green's can do them for $160 cash deal?

$160?? I dunno about that… they usually want 3 bills a wheel

some oe wheels are hard to refinish cheap, unless you're ok to paint only, vs paint and diamond cut + clear.

Yea greens is like 250-300 for a repaint on curb rash. AlloyWheelRepair in Richmond is a bit cheaper but you get what you pay for.

Two weeks ago I was looking at old 92-95 civics on CL for the first time in years, there was ONE for sale in all of gvrd. 7 years ago there would be 50-80 for sale at one time

Market sure is wack

In those seven years, most were probably written off due to theft or collision. Or just rust.

The average buyer of a 30-year-old Honda is probably trying to make it into a wannabe Kanjo racer, and anyone with a decent shell is just going to keep it in their garage because they can, and have likely had it forever.

I high-fived thin air after reading this. Lol!!

I had my stock ISF wheels refinished at Green's recently and they charged me $1,400 plus taxes. 10/10 job, they took my whole car, dismounted and remounted the tires, and it's a black hyper chrome finish which typically costs more. Back in 2014-2017 they did a few sets of Volk 16 inch wheels with me dropping off just the wheels for refinishing and those were $575 plus taxes and paying with a credit card (not a cash job). Prices have certainly gone up.

I used Green's once and wouldn't recommend. Expensive, took longer than expected, colour match and prep were pretty bad so they had to redo it.

I highly recommend Shinez out in Abbotsford. $175 a wheel for complete refinish for these - came out near perfect (says a lot as I'm picky af) and he even did a brushed finish on the lip. And he finished them quicker than he quoted - unheard of these days.
