Back From The Dead
I'm sure most of you guys on here know me or know of me. Anyways, my daily driver was stolen back in February and recovered several days later all stripped up.
Keep in mind that my cousin did the body work for free. He is not a professional and this is only my daily driver. It has both a reconstructed title and is a theft recovery.
I rushed my cousin because I got tired of putting miles on my new car, and never got to ride my bike because of the constant rain. Thus, the car still needs a lot of prep before paint is isn't anywhere close to being finished. The car will also be getting lowered another 1/2" or so soon. I have already picked the color I want to get it sprayed, but it won't be getting done for a few months.
The passenger rear quarter got messed up when my cousin-in-law was taking the tape and masking paper off the car.
Body work done:
-Shaved front and rear emblem
-Shaved washer nozzles
-Shaved front license plate holes
-Shaved antenna
-Shaved molding holes (CX/VX look)
-Door dings GONE!
-Dents GONE!
-RUST FREE!!!
(The same day I took it out of his garage it started hailing so there are several new, small dents in the car. Same thing happened to my 2008 .:R32)
Anyways, enough rambling and on with the pictures.
The coupe is my brother's car (well over 200k miles), but it used to be my very first Civic. He put it together without spending any money at all by just using the old parts I had lying around.
