Re: my new ej8
Yea i love the color too. It needs re done on the drivers side because they obviously let an idiot do the body work but its alright til spring.
Ive been thinking about swapping the head for a vtec 16 or 18 its just the lack of funds stopping me.
Its pretty quick as is for now

Those rims look real nice on your car. I'd be worried about the drivers side rusting this winter though. Is there something that you could coat the exposed areas with temporarily? Then you can fix it up right in the spring. Just painting is easier than fixing rust AND painting.

Re: my new ej8
Thank you. I'm much happier now. And even though i had a bit of a drive to get them 25 bucks for two taillights in great condition was well worth it

Re: my new ej8
Another quick update:
Weighed my options and instead of sanding all the filler out i decided to just replace the doors, quarters, and fenders. Luckily my friend is selling me both sides of his wrecked ek for 150. Probably gonna pick them up in a week or so, so i will post up some pictures when i start the transplant
