new life to bunged up wheels ftw!
I used a surface prep tool to mine to get those nicks out before painting. It is not sandpaper but abrasive disc resembles scotchbrite but way more durable.

good work, i notice your car only has a heater not climatye control? its an easy swap maybe you should go to a junkyard and swap itt
threw my a/c bits away so it wouldnt really be climate control.
just heading out to clean the frames up now
might even remove the dash to save getting dust and shit in the vents
i got no ac and mine works fine. i have a NZ new AC radiator delete for my heater boxes under the dahs, Autimate weight reduction!
LOOK! NO SUN ROOF!
the extent of sun roof rust, no much considering the rep these have for rusting
got most of the window frame cleaned up to. no more to be replaced than i thought, so cool!
sweet now weld that sunroof hole up lol, Man your doin a HEAP a work there
yeah should swap the roof skin from an accord with out a moonroof, ive seen it done before not to hard. just drill out the spot welds and pull it offf and weld teh new one in
1988 Honda Accord LX-i Coupe 123k miles.
i like the sunroof so i think it can stay.
only took it out so i dont have to mask it all up, and i have the roof lining out
took bout 2 minutes.
dont care if it weighs 10kg
yeah why not keep the sunroof i found it good for throwing things out of hehe its niot like you cant pull the weight you dont have a d series in there lol
im trying to equalise my weight addition by reducting. i have all this heavy audio gear so im removing things to make it weigh back to stock lol
