Here's my ride. Getting ready to park it and give it a major cosmetic update, and minor performance upgrades. Will post new pics when done, should be end of March.

looks nice... you don't see that many silver ones around.

It looks great, looks a lot like mine. What are you doing to it?

Thanks guys...yea, silver is not that common, and mine will be changing from that soon.
Projects are:
520 conversion, undertail, flushmount iridiums, hugger, making new polished cans for it, and new hangers to go with the paint scheme.....have a big machine shop where I work that I do some "government work" when I have the time.
The paint will be the big thing. I have some House Of Kolor cans left from past projects, so I'm thinking candy shimrin red (yes, shimrin, that's what it is called..lol) over silver, and over gold at highlight areas (i.e. around radiator molding edges, and other "lines" on the plastic) and then putting shimrin silver tribals in 3-D shadowing/ highlights, with a red/ orange colored flame highlighted in yellow, woven in and out of the tribals with drop shadowing, and maybe ghost lettering of the SuperHawk and Honda logos....maybe. Sounds complicated, but shouldn't be bad, just will take some time between taping it off, laying down the different coats, curing and sanding. Have some scuffs/ cracks and a dent in the tank to fix first where the past owner laid it down.
I'll post some pics when it's done, maybe a couple in progress if you wanna see that too, just let me know.

Can't wait to see those pics. Probably worthy to post up on my website....which I seriously need to work on.

Sounds good....I'll put 'em up when it gets done.....
