There was a 4wd model in Japan that came with unpainted bumpers too....



I had a dx a few years ago, decided to paint the bumpers on mine though

Just looked through your entire build at EFCS. I like seeing people that restore their cars to OEM quality while adding small touches of their own. Just looking at the before and after pictures of the paint job is amazing. Good job, man!

Not a fan of sedans or unpainted bumpers but kudos for a very clean build and also for building the way YOU want and keeping the bumpers black. I have things on my car that I did also against what other people like because its the way I wanted it. At the end of the day if you're not building the car for YOU then you're doing it for the wrong reasons IMO.

Besides the Rover cover and the Spoon Sports rad cap it's all stock.

Sourced a trunk tray (still need a few more parts to complete the trunk), dust bin, first aid kit and tossed in a Honda shammy that'd been laying around for a while.

Beautiful job, love the car and the cream color. I always wanted a ef sedan back in the day, I had 2 std hatchbacks, one that light blue and a cream one, the cream color looks amazing freshly painted.

Finished installing the bronze rear windshield. It looks so good. These pix don't do it justice.
