Yeah man, I'm replacing fenders and a windshield on my car. I only have SOME rust on my quarter at the bottom where the trim and the quater meet. It'll get replaced with some tin and migged into place. Also, I got a damn whole in my hood. After that, it's some metallic silver and some gunmetal TE37's. Love silver paint, it's so easy to keep clean and it looks good on our cars. PA salt/snow sucks on older cars. Why can't I still live in Tampa, FL? lol

man that sucks. I am sorry to see that....So are you going to try beating it all back out the best you can and patch in new metal where needed or what?

The passenger side doesnt look bad at all. Still kinda sucks though that you cannot put the trim back in. Either way good luck..

Good to see another de-rice build. You're doing a great job... But ughh.. dual exhaust on a single exhaust car? That's nothing but extra weight. I know you bought it like that tho. Good luck

Honestly it looks great, just from a mechanical perspective it's annoying to see. I would keep that on until you're pretty much done the car, and if it sounds good then leave it. It's not too much extra weight, like about 2 meals in my belly extra weight. And that raises some funny **** i was thinking about... when I see some total fatass in a civic with a carbon fiber hood to reduce weight, yet are still weighing the car down with their fat. That is damn funny ****.

Hey man show some pics of the new gun...

What wires did you have to extend in your wire tuck other than the headlights, corners, and marker lights....I am running across having to extend my injector wires so I can run then under the intake.

Yea I still have the side skirts, I havent taken a pic of them yet sorry. I have been really busy with work/gf/buying a house/doing wiretuck...lol.
I swear though I will get to as soon as I can. As for the door pillar I believe I have one on my Dx.

Guns look good. What gauge wire are you using to extend your wires...Is that a picture before you ran any wires back into the engine bay?

Also where are you keeping your wiper motor?

Yea I found a great deal on some 20 gauge wire. Thats what I am using and I knew it looked close to what stock was.

By the looks of it I am going to be running three sets of wire back into the engine bay. The distributer, alternator, and the injectors/intake. I am trying to keep them loomed together in those three cat. It is getting harder now though because I am having to extend some wires in my engine bay.

just my luck i will get everytign done and then ill have to go over everythign to see if what is the problem

yeah i was going to go out and buy 20 gauge wires but my dad had like 20 + feet of like 6 different color wires so i took that

wow this is bullshit, i ordered a hood from majestic and some other stuff but only because i needed the hood, and they right me an email stating

"Thank you for the order. Unfortunately, the hood is too large for shipping. We have removed it from the order, and refunded the account. We will be shipping the remainder of the order.

Sorry for any inconveniences this might've of caused you."

what kind of crap is that im so ******* pissed right now. i sent an email back

im also pissed they jsut took it off and shipped everythign else and not call me before they did anythign,

isnt that why they take your number down
