My 97 Ej8 DD mainly cosmetic build.
Sold this guy.
And picked up this beauty off good ol' craigslist for $2800. Completely stock 171k sitting on tokico blues and coilovers. A friend hooked it up on the bra for free. :D
Looks like whoever tried to get the radio out didnt know what they were doing.
So first things first. As soon as I got her home I dropped her to a comfortable height.
Then time for a little cleaning
Before:
A shop vac and a some hot water can do wonders.

Looking pretty good man.. a couple more small cosmetic mods, maybe some different wheels, and your car will look really good. I kinda want a '96-'00 coupe now, instead of a hatch

Hahah, ****, painting rims isn't too ghetto! Just finished painting mine with Plastidip about 2/3 weeks ago now.. definitely better than stock (which was chrome; nasty)!
