    Lose the wheels. Like, now. You should think about painting the lower half of the doors black to match the body kit. That might look good as a two-tone.

    Re: The honda

    I don't mind the rims. Looks like a good base for a project though. What's the plan for the rust and the banged panels? I hope there is a plan for those before paint goes on.

    Re: The honda

    Oh snooz its bad on one side. Rusted threw the passenger side rear wheel well. The bumper bracket area is gone. So i guess the solution would be to cut the inside area where the bracket was and then form a corner with some light weight sheet metal and rivet it in with some glue then paste some undercoat paint on it ? The problem with it is the bracket area on the inside of the panel where it holds the bumper to align it would be hard so a bolt might have to be due on it.
    The dings just need to be filled really and right rear spot is the worst..


    Id have to pic up a hood and Trunk lid and do a lot of sanding.


    But im cool with it dinged up Until i can afford to pay someone to do it for me Because i have no place or tools to do body work and paint.
    It will sit all dinged up.
    For now i got to get her suspension right.
    Its leaning all weird .

    Re: The honda

    Sweet put my rims on, And i like them. They will look better when i lower it, probably doing that tomorrow. If i can figure out were to get a spring compressor for basically no money because i don't really have any to spend on it.
    Also tomorrow im hitting the junk yard and pulling some rear lower control arms. My camber is all jacked on that side and when i took the knuckle off last they looked bent.
    Also took my bad batterie to auto zone in which they gave me a new one thak god it was under warrenty.
    I looked at my front upper control arm and the ball joint has play in it on the top of it. Weird. So im returning that and getting a replacement free.Love warrenties...
    So the sun was out today and my Honda got some love .
    After i drop it il send the before and after pictures with the rims..

    You should be able to rent spring compressors from Autozone.

    Snooz u know i got my springs right. There a 2 inch drop.
    And i dont think that the compressor from autozone is going to work with the stock springs up front. Do u think it will fit in between them?
    I got my springs from Hondamonster a couple weeks ago and he told me i dont need the compressor to get them on my struts. So im just worried about taking the stock ones off.
    Was even just going to go to the junk yard and pop off the lower ball joint on a car there and the lower bolt on the struts and just stand on the other side and take the top bolt off and see whata happens.
    LOL
    And i was told that i can just take the top bolt off and then jack the car up and the spring will come off but i dont want to get it in a bind up in my wheel well..and be screwed.
    But yeah once this thing gets dropped these rims are going to set it off.
    Prolly going to go ahead and get me a hood n trunk lid soon too and just black primer it along with my roof. becuase there beat pretty bad.
    Once i get these springs on il be done with the suspention , Interior and the motor and then its times to start making the body right.



    And Ducantu I stole these rims basically i gave the dude 180 bucks and a ps3.. There in very good condition and they have yokohamas on them WITH ALOT OF TREAD. .. I love em to death way better than my old focals in which i still have..

    I'm not sure if they'll work or not. Hondamonster's suggestion is probably the better option, though I haven't tried it personally.
