    Looks 100x better without all the cluttered stickers, in my opinion.

    Get that thing aligned!

    Well blew a flat the other day in a very undesirable area of town.

    tire had one small hole and some tears from the toe being out of whack. getting an alignment soon.



    Also took a huge chunk out of my front lip when I had to go up an incline to get to the Air pump at a gas station.



    Picked up a used 205/50/15 tire with 70% tread for $40 today.



    So, the new tire is on the wheel, and the wheel is on the car.
    Ditched the front lip and ordered a different one off eBay. Should be coming in soon.

    Stay tuned for more updates.

    My friend gave me his old Japanese train handle, so I threw it in the rear driver's side.

    Why is your hood wavy looking?
    Thanks man! Yeah it goes across the whole windshield lol. But its like $300 to replace it because I have the base level insurance that only protects against personal injury.

    The hood only looks wavy because of the reflection of the clouds. All is good in the neighborhood.

    Hey thanks man! Yeah I use rust oleum 2x paint + primer. Came out great on the bumper and matches the oem color actually very nicely.

    My original plan was to max them all out, but I have rubbing issues. Gonna rend a fender roller from autozone for free and go to town on them.

    No pics but I gave the front fenders a pull. Here's the method I used.
    Grabbed the wheel arch and pulled. Literally pulled them out about an 1/8th or 3/16th of an inch.
    Wheels no longer rub.

    Are you going to re paint this thing some time?


    Honda Civic / Del Sol (1992 - 2000) - [FAQ] How To: Fit EG Coupe bumper on Sedan - I found a lot of topics on this subject but they mostly didn't agree. So I tried myself. I got the black bumper from the 2dr of a friend of mine. The bumper fits right on there, the bit under the cornerlight needs a little persuasion to...

    Ah I've seen that. I'm gonna continue to try and fit it the best I can. I can live with it right now, so it'll stay for now.
    I'd love to paint it, but right now it's just not in the budget.
    Next step is to look at removing the pinstripe. also need to repaint two of the wheels and respray the front bumper.
