    Default What I've been doing

    sold this.




    bought this without ever seeing it or talking to the owner.



    did this




    got some wheels and made them pretty but couldn't decide on a finish




    picked up this lip, broken in 3 places and we made it look a little better



    how it sits now with a lot more to come

    Prime., I told you this before that I agree with this statement. Went from having a badass Jetta to having a Civic. Albeit a clean Civic, it's still a Civic.

    But you know the disclaimer: you liking what you drive is that matters, yes? Later, QD.

    I was going on looks and features that Jetta has over a dx civic. Like I said before, nothing wrong with the civic because I had a nice one too and my wife had a jetta. In this case I would have chose the jetta. I also know what having a car for a period of time and just want a change feels like too. To the op, nice civic and with seeing what you did with the jetta, I am sure this will be no different.
