Stock as she goes

Well, I figured I would take some pictures of my EK before I begin any modifcations. Right now she sits bone stock. The only things I've done to it are very minor DIY stuff. I've removed the badges, removed the hub caps, removed any stickers, and repainted my wiper arms.

Plans for this summer:
- LS meshies w/BF Goodrich tires (Powdercoated black)
- GS-R brake upgrade
- Black housing headlights
- 99-00 EX/Si tail lights
- Front and rear lip
- JDM moldings
- Remove and patch all rust
- Repaint car

I have a pretty long list of plans for my EK. Right now while money is slow she's just sitting stock :cry: ...and yes, it is an auto, where I live it's so much stop and go that a manual would just be a hassle. I'm looking at dropping in a B16 by Christmas if all goes well. Any comments/advice would be appreciated, just keep it positive. I <3 my EK.

Yup, it's a DX. I would put the hubs back on, but they look like s**t and are flaking. It just looks terrible with em on.

I'm supprised how little all the dings, dents, and rust appears in these pictures. Then again, they're not the best, so I guess it makes sense. I really can't wait to get started working on this car. Unfortunately for me though, I have just received a bill for a previous emergency room visit for $1950 that I have to pay (f**king insurance doesn't cover alcohol poisoning). Oh well...that's the last time I ever drink myself above .30 again.

I'll keep updating as progress moves along.
