    Default my EG8 progress.. (pics on page 1, 3)

    UPDATE ON PAGE 3!! (i know, its about time)




    i bought this car back in september and it has been my DD since.. no extremely "special" mods about it yet.. just a lot of suspension and motor work... when i got it, it was an auto, but now it is a manual...

    opinions welcome.. onto the pics!




    here is the car the day after i bought it... absolutely bone stock and ugly!!










    i started buffin it out and found out there was a lot of shine under there!!




    after gettin it buffed out, i put on my slips i had laying around...







    also lowered it and put on some new spoon style mirrors.. (others were busted)














    put on my old tails from my EJ, then busted them the next week with a lawn mower






    put on some rear discs and ended up paintin my slips... (dont remember why)






    next i got window visors and put on a front and rear lip and got some EK sideskirts..



    original taillights again but got a new exhaust!!!



















    and here is how she sits tonight.. lots of different things since then..
    jdm stanley sidemarkers, enkei rs6's, new color, everything is bolted up where it should be, and some other stuff





    my new wheels






    representin my homeboy howard dean!!!













    again, opinions and/or advice welcome! let me know what yall think and i keep it updated!!

    yep, they fit ALMOST perfectly.. you can get two or three christmas tree clip things into the bottom.. only part that doesnt match up perfect is where it meets the fender, but its a simple fix

    My vote is on Maroon. Then, throw the slips back on it but polish them first.
