The door isn't as bad now as it looks in the pics. I pulled the dent out a while back and haven't taken new pics yet. as for the fender...i know i need to find a new one but out here the junk yards dont have very many old cars...they like get to a certain year then get rid of them themselves..im thinking about ordering a new one...the only problem is that i need the wheel well too its all bent out of shape.

if i get a new car this summer i might just part it out...i can get more money for it that way...but thats only if i get a new car..(very unlikely)

that is a great car to work on. looks like your front end is nice and lined up! thats kinda hard to find on a 3gee. you know the headlights, they are usually some how misaligned. anyway, do some body work and make her pretty. looks like you have done some of the rust problems.

I recently(today) primered/rustolemumed(not quite sure how to spell that) all of the rusted part of my car...and also my trunk which i was checking out cause it vibrates really bad..so i was tapping on it to see why it was so loose and rust was falling everywhere so i primed that too.

I went to majestic honda...THEY ARE FREAKIN EXPENSIVE...but at least i know of somewhere to get parts now. Thanks guys for all of the ideas... I do have one question though and im sure its answered somewhere on this website...but for somereason my car keeps getting mildew and mold on my steering wheel...and when i open the doors in the front i notice that it is always damp there..is there some kind of like seal that is bad or something...cause i just cleaned out my drainage valves on my sunroof so i dont think its leaking. Any body got any ideas??

Looks good. New muffler, cause yours is almost off the dmn car, fix the rust (you're lookin' at about $500 to get that professionally fixed, more to paint it) get it painted, lowered, new wheels, tint the tails red or black, make a lip (cut the top off of a 86-87 bumper and attach it to thebottom of that one) or mod a 90-93 Teg or 90-93 accord front bumper, get 90-93 sides and rear, and redo the interior. That's just my two bits.

Well guys thanks for all the ideas. I started on the body work today. and as for mods....they may come if i ever get a job. My parents got me watchin my sisters after school so there aint much i can do to get a job. the next thing i will do is probably get new head light wires cause mine have a short and keep blowing fuses...then my stereo will go in hopefully.

That car is absolutely crazy..i never thought about doing something like that. That is one bad ass idea. I dont think i want to go that mod crazy on this baby though...just some new rims and MAYBE lower it...i like my suspension..its really soft and you dont even feel bumps.

Bumper sticker = horse poopy.

Get gunmetal rims to match your paint, that would be titties.

The car looks decent right now. You said you primered over the rust? It'll keep rusting. The only way to get rid of it is to sand or grind it off or cut it out and weld new metal in. Hopefully you can find the rest of your parts and get that thing all nice and good looking. It definitely needs lowered though. Good luck with it.

Bitesize, titties are good.

yeah it does look like it needs lowered but...my uncle has one the same year with a lowering kit on it and it rides like $h*t. as for the gun metal rims...I LIKE that idea....but how big of rims do you guys think i could fit...im thinking like 17 maybe 18's or will they rub?and that will lower my car too, wont it?

Badboy2005
03-12-2004, 08:05 PM
oh and another reason for not lowering it..is that my highschool and almost every other place out here has speed bumps...and im not talkin little speed bumps in talkin speed bumps that my car already rubs on...it hella bad. everyone that drive lowered cars out here has to figure out how to get around all of them.

and also im going to be puttin subs in the back which will bring that back down alot...if i get 2 or maybe 3 12" subs...
