    Dear Kat, I spent my half Saturday and whole Sunday drooling and doing things on the car. The fangs are shiny now ( not fins as I said before, hehehe!) and the roof cage is up. But I think they sit way too high on the car, I'll go to my mate's house next Tuesday or Wednesday to have it cut and shortened as low as possible, at least 3/12 inches. I took pics with my cel phone but once I lower the roof cage I'll take decent pictures to post. Amazing car to own and drive!

    NICE!!!!!!

    Several of us over here always drool over the JDM front fog light assembly you have on the front......

    Is that an offset scoop on the hood insert? Is it functional?

    What's on the metal hood, just next to the scoop? Vents?

    Your "fangs" looks nice & shiny!....what did you use?


    Enjoy!.......don't forget to eat.....hehe

    Just woke up!
    The previous owner had all these stickers on the car, i'm removing them, looks too busy. And he had an old scoop (not functional) on the bonnet.
    removed the scoop and the bonnet is faded, so i bought this one to replace the old one, so it desguises where the previous one was, until i can afford to respray the whole bonnet... There's a black sticker on the bonnet, to cover some glue left when i peeled a piece of rubber that the other owner had also stuck on the bonnet... For the fangs, i bought this heavy duty sticker from ebay uk and cut in that shape (sorry for my english...)
    This car is like a little war tank, so cool, can't get over it!

    After an extensive search online.....I can say that EVERY seller that shows they're in stock and let's you complete the transaction.....DOES NOT ACTUALLY HAVE THEM IN STOCK!!!..

    No Steelcraft, Westin, Aries, Go Rhino, Romik, Manik....NONE EXIST ANYMORE for the Rodeo, Passport or Amigo!

    The ONLY ones I could find were these stainless ones on ebay for Rodeo/Passport. Don't even know what brand they are.
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/HONDA-PASSPO...#ht_3330wt_993

    Got a tracking #, should be here this week.

    Keep yer fingerz crossed everybody...ya'll know how cranky and whiney I get when I can't get what I want! !..hey, don't agree with me so fast!

    If these work, seller has 9 more pair.
    .
    .
    .
    In the meantime....I tried a hairdryer on the plastic ones....didn't do a thing.....guess ABS requires a real heat gun.
    I thought if we heated the center vertical area and pulled outward, they'd spread open more and get to that 110 degree or so angle we need.
    Anybody?
