convert your DX/LX to a modified EX!!!
I have a 2003 EX sedan that has suffered a horrible fate, but hopefully my loss will be your gain. This past Saturday, I let a friend borrow my car and she lost traction on the dirt road she was driving down... she jumped a ditch, went through a barbed wire fence, and took out half a dozen pine trees before coming to a stop. The car has suffered some pretty major body damage, but there is plenty left to salvage.
The motor is the D17A2 (1.7L VTEC) with an automatic transmission, and it is completely undamaged and well maintained. I have an Injen SRI intake, Neuspeed Race springs, front and rear SPC camber kit, Autopage remote start and alarm system, strut tower bars in the front and rear, 14" steel wheels with new Falken Ziex tires, Kicker coaxials all the way around... I even have the cool stock taillights (the ones with the round lights and the clear reverse lights, not the ugly ones with the pink back-up bulbs lol).. this car would be perfect for someone with a stock DX or LX to convert their vehicle to a VTEC EX and add some quality aftermarket parts.
The interior is black and in perfect condition, so those of you with Tan or other colored interiors can do a full color swap as well (door panels, consoles, seats, etc). The EX comes stock with power windows, locks, mirrors, cruise control, etc so you can even replace your manual options with full power. You can even swap windows out and save yourself money on a tint job, all 4 windows and the rear are tinted with 4% Llumar Platinum.
I currently have the vehicle posted on Mautofied.com where you can see the pictures of what it USED to look like as well as my asking price, and I created a Photobucket.com account where you can view the accident scene photos. Feel free to email with any questions you may have, and I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks!

Oh God. That's awful. The last time I let a woman drive my car (my wife), she blew the head gasket. If they weren't so nice to look at, I'd say get rid of them all.
Good luck with part out man.

Re: convert your DX/LX to a modified EX!!!
and i'm not sure about the parts/shipping yet, i'll get back to you... when i start parting out, i'll PM you first...
i love my little rice rocket, but i'm in the market for it's polar opposite: an F-350 crew cab... i found one that's a 6.0L PowerStroke shortbed dually and it's already lifted, so i think that's gonna be the one... i'm 6'5", and i think it's about time i get a vehicle that i have to climb into, not out of lol...
as soon as the parting out begins, you have first dibs... thanks for your interest, i'll keep in touch...

Re: convert your DX/LX to a modified EX!!!
not sure on prices yet, still praying for an as-is sale... but it's not looking like that's going to happen, so i'm about to start making a price list for all the parts... you've got first dibs on these 3 items, i'll get back to you as soon as the parts start coming off and we'll figure something out...
not sure about a price, but i'm sure we can make a deal... i'll let you know asap, and we'll see what's up... PM'ed you about the sensors... thanks!
nope... my floormats are always a crumpled heap in the floorboard lol... sorry...
sorry, my floormats are from Wal-Mart, and they wouldn't be worth the shipping cost or i'd just give them to you lol

Re: convert your DX/LX to a modified EX!!!
If i don't reply to you individually, please don't take offense! I've got this thread in 3 different forums, as well as on other web sites, it's quite a task PM'ing and all with individual answers...
Feel free to ask any questions you like, but if they are about parts or shipping, I will get back to you when i decide to part out... it should be in the very near future, since it's looking like noone is going to buy the vehicle as-is...
I will go through every thread and make a list of every part you guys have asked about, and then i'll PM you and we'll negotiate on a price and shipping and all that... those that asked about a specific part first (intake, tails, springs, camber kit, etc) will have first dibs (i'll PM you too), and then everything else will be posted for all to see... thanks so much for the inquiries, and i look forward to keeping in touch with all of you...
