My new '99 EM1

[victor.m]

Well here it is, just picked it up today. It has some damage to the front, but I'm looking at getting that fixed as soon as I sell my EJ1.

Here are some pictures taken with my phone, higher quality will follow







Thanks for looking!

1. Get security and protect that baby from thieves. It's not hard to steal Honda's unfortunately.
2. Keep it clean

Always clean like my EJ1, and right now it has an alarm and 2 very well hidden kill switches, kept in a gated garage with nighttime security. Will invest in a better alarm system and whatnot later on, but I think she's pretty alright for now!

Good to hear .

And there's nothing wrong with stock. I'm just saying if you mod it, keep it clean . Any plans for it?

For right now just getting the front fixed (thread about it in the body work forum), then a SRI and an A'Pexi N1 with DC stainless headers. After that, we'll see where we go from there !

Looks exactly like mine when I got it. You'll like the header, intake and exhaust. Nice starter mods. Keep it nice, looks like the previous owner took good care of it.

Previous owner was a cool guy, obviously kept it very clean, engine bay is immaculate (will take pictures when possible). Car is in really good shape, just gotta get the front fixed up and I'm good to go.

Thanks for the comments, hopefully I land a second job so all the mods can come sooner

What do you mean bro? That's just one side of it, the rear..the other front pick it just looks weird because one half of the car is lit and the other isn't

Thanks for all the comments! Looking into getting the front fixed, hopefully soon.

Thanks man, keeping it clean is the plan

So I waxed my car and did some improv bodywork for the time being on the front end, all involving some mallets and quite a bit of hitting, bending, and twisting. It'll keep me going until I can dish out for some proper parts, I've decided that getting a new core support, bumper, and hood+headlights+bumper cover will have me pretty much set, since that is where all the damage is.

Here are some pics, enjoy! Don't be fooled by the last picture of the front end after some improv work, the car isn't dirty, it's just the bumper damage and the lighting makes it seem that way.

Once you lower it and put that new bumper/lip on there, you'll be my twin

keep it clean and keep us updated
