    Re: My 89 lx-i Coupe.

    well, my lip got ripped off on the highway. i was going around 75, and hit a chink of tire in the road from a big rig lol.

    i went to the jy, got a new volvo lip this time im fitting it better i cut it in the middle, and i will see what i can do to fill the gap.. idk what im going to put there, any suggestions? here are the pics of the new volvo lip.

    yes it is the same as before, just off a different car.
    i was going to try the garden lining, or garage door thing.. but i gotta have a fat lip. :P

    sorry about the crappy quality pics, they were taken off my ipod, i didnt feel like grabbing my camera

    Re: My 89 lx-i Coupe.

    yeah i will, im not sure when ill finish it though lol.

    i think also with my tax income money i will try to find a project car.
    and keep this one as a daily.

    i would be on the lookout for an integra. ( changed my mind )
    it depends.
    i cant do big changes to this car because i need to drive it every day, i cant afford to have it down.

    Re: My 89 lx-i Coupe.

    here is what camber does to the inside walls of your tires.
    they blow out.
    is still holds air, but the inside sidewall is done for.
    i drove like this for about 2 weeks, and didnt notice.
    what i did notice was the car pulling super hard to the right, i put my old se-i's on the front. and doesnt pull anymore needless to say...

    ive got to adjust the headlights a little still to ge tthe lines matched up right. but getting it back fixed to drive to work was more important first.

    Re: My 89 lx-i Coupe.

    Hey guys! The local guy he sold it to, ended up being a good friend of my boyfriends and he sold the coupe to me. I guess I'll continue the build thread if you guys don't mind?
    I've got the windows tinted, 15 on the front & 30 all around the back. Put a new cv axle on the right, changed, the fuel filter, oil filter and took the lip off. Thinking about getting it painted stock color all the way around and painting the window trim. Engine bay is going to be cleaned up, getting some headers and all that other good stuff. I'll post pics of what it looks like now, tomorrow. Not much of a difference, but still.

    I would suggest making a new thread to show what you have done to it and plan on doing.
