I bought my second vehicle recently and I have been doing a lot of work to it, trying to make it look tasteful. When I bought the car it had stupid little flames on the drivers side rear quarter panel and on the passengers side it had some ruff looking areas. The car has a B18a1 LS swap, skunk2 headers, Skunk2 intake manifold, AEM short ram intake, Tein coilovers. I paid $2000.00 for the car with all the mods and it had only little surface rust.

Here is the first pic while it was still at the notary


GT Grant steering wheel, Alpine head unit and mint interior besides typical drivers side seat wear.



before work haha :P



at the junk yard pulling an accord lip =)





I think it will look good and only cost $1. While at the junk yard I pulled a Civic wagon rear wind shield and it also was only $1



The car before we rattle canned the rust and retarded looking flames.... the other side of the car was the same deal but with rust on the rocker.
Whoever had it before me also decided to remove the antenna and fill it with bondo, but when we sanded the primer down all was good :-D



Here my brother and I sanded the rust and primer down going from 100-400 grit before primer.





Here was the other side that I mentioned.



primer =)



this picture shows the flames finally gone :clap: not finished yet





I got bored and decided to get rid of the rust on the roof while I was at it and also my brother and I painted the rocker panel and little rust spots





Here are some pictures once all of the rust was gone, now i just need to paint the piece of metal above the rear bumper 8|





OEM eating JDM :prayer: this is my girlfriends brother taking daddies new 427 for a spin



Here is the LS



Grenade shift knob (for the hell of it) and my alpine head unit




Here is my PG sub and my Audiobahn amp... they are so old but work so good there is no point to get new ones :P





The car is not done yet and I will be sure to keep everyone updated. Today while I'm at work my brother is going to pic up some BMW bottle caps for my car =) Also I will have stock fenders on the front once I can get ahold of some

Just picked the bottle caps up last night, 6 rims with tires for $80... couldn't turn them down :-D they will need tires but I think it was a steal



Like them?
