I had a 10th gen civic and loved it. Had I had more money a handful of years ago, I would have done a few upgrades to it.

If you have the 1.5L turbo engine that came on everything but the base model, you could upgrade the turbo and get a tune. That should put a bit more zip into it.

If you have the base model 2.0L, installing a turbo and all of the supporting mods on an NA vehicle is more expensive, time consuming, and frustrating for a first-timer. However, you could install an E85 kit to squeeze a bit more power out of it. Pair it with a tune and I bet you could get a bit past the 200hp mark.

These could be cheaper options than getting a similar car in a sport trim. However, I understand that modifying your daily driver can seem risky as well. If you're mechanically inclined and feeling adventurous, I would encourage you to take a look at what upgrades can be done to your current car.

I haven't used FreeCAD before, but if it's anything like inventor or fusion360, you might be able to edit the individual part and either reload that one part into the assembly or start a new assembly. Do you still have the .ipt file or equivalent for that one piece?

The gist is that his pregnant girlfriend was having severe abdominal pains and Gus brushed it off and wouldn't take her to an ER. She miscarried and he got canceled. This happened back in like 2021.

I've used Inventor and Fusion360 for small personal projects since 2014. In an instance like this, I would just draw a quick 2d shape off of the front face in your picture and cut it. Sometimes it's just not worth the time to figure out. Are you modeling professionally?

You are an adult and your actions have consequences.

My man. You don't realize that the consequences of you two breaking up means you two are no longer committed. You may be in denial of it, but you two were single from that point moving forward. Neither of you owed each other anything romantically and you are now on your own separate paths. There's no taking her back. You've already expressed your incompatible life goals. It's time to move on and get back in the dating game. It's hard and this may not be your last heartbreak.

A ball joint separator and an afternoon of work could have saved you $900

I finally got around to removing the cheapo amazon headlights that the previous owner installed. Got the wiring mixed up and plugged in the turn signals where the DRLs should go and got this fun picture.
