I shaved all emblems, antenae, roof rack, rear washer sprayer, rear wiper, front sprayers, and aftermarket side marker turn signals. Also switched front bumper to 88/89 coupe style. Total of about 60+ dents from working at Albertsons. Damn shopping carts! Also a good way to spend $1,200 for Brand New Motegi 15 inch wheels. I still have a little sanding to do. I want it perfect. Also rolled over 292,000 miles last week.

oh no's!!!!! I loved the burghundy!! I can't tell, but are those traclights (spoon knockoff's lol)? We just started selling those at schwabs a few months ago. Uber light, I htink the 15"s only weigh like 9 lbs! You should go with a green, maybe a deep forest with some sort of flake. Oh well, I leave it up to you.
*edit* that sounds good too. I love a good two tone handa :D

not much. Been workin on my s13. Just got my ca18det and bought bobafetts 3" exhaust, you should check out my thread in the OT section (my car is dirty right now tough, lol). I like the two tone idea. Something clicks with the red accords and the stock black bumpers, though I like it more on the 4g's, I'm sure it'll look sick on your 3g :D.

ps: yes, I've worked at schwabs since I was sixteen (about 3 years now). HAHA! I get my wheels for wholesale +10% bitches!!! :flip:

I like that sedan front bumper on the hatch. You can go to the clear bumper lights also. Looks like you lowered the car also.

Sold them back in August for $400

Should look really good once its got some paint on it, but I really like the new wheels.

It might not look pretty now, but think of what he's doing. A stronger, deeper version of what it was before, with a nice contrast of black two tone. Should look good. I'm interested.

I haven't been posting as much as I have been. I've been working on my
N scale Train set during this winter. It's just been a cold freaking winter. I've been rolling my car like this since late september. When it warms up I will continue the body work once again.:slap:

When you say shaved, people think of the whole car. Otherwise, what's the point??? Especially, the MIDDLE of the doors, it's really obvious. :wtf:

I've sweat and blead to get my car to what it is. I've also been accord of the month back in May. So all you haters go hate somewhere else. I'm talking about all the newbies that join us here and act like they know everything. Even I don't know everything and I'm a freakin genius! So don't think you know everything when you don't.

Some people don't deserve to drive a 3gee. You know who you are. Go buy a Ford Taurus. That's what you deserve. A pile of poopy!

Dude you have inspired me to go out and get the 88-89 bumper for my car. I wish there was another rear bumper option for us.

Bought the bumper for 20 bucks at the salvage yard, and sanded the biznatch out of that motha. It's easy to put the bumper on. Just get the small metal brackets and you're set.

You better NOT be talking about me.

If you called me the a-word, you best be taking it back.

:rocket:

And YOUR the one that is pwned, you LIVE IN BOISE, IDAHO. :Owned2:

:lol:

Where I live, we are easy going, generally speaking. We don't go shooting off the A-word everytime someone says something we disagree with. :) I don't know how people act in Idaho, or maybe it's because this is the internet, but you are overreacting IMO.

Whatevers.

Going to the beach for a least an hour tomorrow. Enjoy Idaho. :lol:

hey bitesize...i'm feelin' the car. just needs some paint...sounds like a good scheme for the paint. how hard was pullin the side moldings out? did you have any problems of the holes bending (where the clips go) when you pulled them out? anyways...lookin good so far.
