spoiler looks damn mint!!!!!

@cah yeah it's been like that since i got the car.. usually i show mostly pics from the other side, or pics that minimize how obvious it it. unfortunately the other side is even worse right now with a crumpled fender and the ding in the back panel. I'll be hopefully having body and paint done later this year (nothing crazy, just tired of looking at oxidized clearcoat and body damage lol)

@wohdoh: yeah looks good thanks dood :D only complaint is the warping due to the metal core rusting (you can see it on the top of the spoiler in some pics), but it's awesome other than that

Best 3G color combo. I did a double-take when I saw the CD player! Does that thing work?

yeah that warping sucks, but you can never get a ducktail without it, and u got it cheap so :P

Looking good! :)
Hope the ducktail survives as long as possible without the rust eating it's way out of the rubber like mine did...

And damn I want a OEM cd player like that! Where these an SE-i (and USDM only) thing?

frantik

wow i guess it's a common thing with the warping. luckily the spoiler is in california now so it won't rust any more :D

as for the CD player, it was an option in 1989 in the US (not sure about other markets) it was super expensive though because CD players were pretty new technology

I had to get a hold of two broken CD players to make one working one.. as far as I know it's the only working one on 3geez or possibly anywhere :D

frantik
04-20-2009, 09:31 PM
haha yeah i'll be going to more meets and whatnot now that I actually enjoy driving my car again. It's so stable even at high speeds :D (not sure how much is spoiler and how much is tie rods.. probably more the tie rods haha) .. i can hit 90 without even noticing. i gotta be careful not to get another ticket though lol

ah, ok :)

btw, I smoked the actual orange piece INSIDE of the blinker.. it makes it look black inside but the casing is still clear
