    Red face why i love ohio winters

    i walked out to my car today to run some errands, and i couldnt help but notice how photogenic it looked after a few weeks of snow and salt . needless to say my day included going to the car wash.

    YUCK!! I hate salt....


    I guess I shouldn't mention that it hit 90 degrees here yesterday, so no salt on the roads....

    well i don't drive my 3gee. but my 5th gen. is suppose to black, was white due to salt, but then it rained for 2 days so it looks like someone finger painted it. my poor baby. and there is some streeky shit on my rims that i can't get off. they're just my winter rims but i was planning on putting them on the 88.
    one of my 88 lx's is up for parts. good engine and transmission. pretty much everything is there. the fenders and hood are bad but other than that it's pretty good.

    RIP my beutiful 5g coupe. May the villans rot in hell!

    your 5th gen rims won't fit your 3g.

    anyway, i'm glad i live at school and my car sits 4 or 5 days of the week. i spent so much time on fixing my rust these past few weeks it would hurt to see my car looking like that.

    they are aftermarket universal 4 lugs. so they will. i would never put my stock rims on my 3 gee. it was 14 inch hub caps.
    one of my 88 lx's is up for parts. good engine and transmission. pretty much everything is there. the fenders and hood are bad but other than that it's pretty good.

    dude mine looks just as bad, its suppost to be red but its brown/grey/white cause of the salt, sand and dirt on my friends road. its rained here but that only put the little lines on it where it all ran off. it will be getting a wash and vacume this weekend if its dry enough out cause i gotta pull it into the back yard.
