Default EG in progess...

So I thought I would share what I have been doing with my 1995 Civic hatchback. I bought this vehicle three months ago, I only had it on road for three days after the purchase. The thing was such a POS.

None of this would have been possible without the help of Paolo and his crew at SpeedCraft Autoline. Countless amount of hours has been put in towards this vehicle. What was supposed to be a basic in and out complete turned into a full car restoration. Much love and thanks guys!


This is my POS 1995 Honda Civic hatchback. Taiwanese front and rear bumpers (unpainted), driver side door has taken a beating, cracked headlamps, and then oh so riced out spoiler.













Something must be done to this thing



















Peaced out the mighty D15B7... getting ready for some color.



I foresee this being a problem later, LOL!









That is one sexy fit.









Primer and Guide Coat applied!







mmm... caramely...





hmm...

lol, there is NOTHING cool about Taiwanese bumpers… they fit like ***. Everything about that car when I bought was crap. I had every intention to change it all. I have replaced all those cheap OEM replacement parts with OEM Honda parts already.
