Re: My 01 EX

Looks good man. Needs a drop but I'm going to have to disagree with the others, personally I think the tails look terrible. but that's just me. Keep it up.

Yea i looked them up, altezza?

You shoulda just put the weather stripping or whatever it is so that they wouldn't fog like that. I think you can open them, de-fog then reseal

yep. shes straight as an arrow now. she had more then a few little dings. has paint chipped off, rust spots, scratches galore, it was keyed. last owner took it over a curb. definitely someone who didnt appreciate what they had. i helped alittle with the body work but it was mostly a friend of mine that gives me a real cheap price. i love all the looks i get when im driving, most ppl dont know what it even is since i shaved all of the badges.
