Ok, here's the story on the car.

It's a 1997 Acura Integra GSR, it's actually my brothers car but I am the one who uses it so it's basically mine. It's my daily driver/beater as I only like to drive my VW when it's nice outside.

I was hit twice in a matter of 2 weeks in this car. The first time was at school. I came out of class and there it was, someone hit the car from the rear bumper all the way up the drivers side to the front bumper pulling the bumper out a bit. I put it through my insurance and just cashed out, payed off my bro what i owed him and took the rest. I really didn't care, it was my beater and I buffed alot of it out.

The second time was when I was on my lunch break from work. I was sitting a few cars back from a now green light, just down the street from my work. The light had turned green but I had no where to go because someone was letting a car from the 7-11 merge in. The light was green but I had no where to go because the car in front of me wasn't moving. Next thing I know the guy in the lifted truck behind me hits me. He took out my trunk, rear bumper, rear trim piece and scratched my light. It was bad so this time it was getting fixed.

I tried to go through his insurance company but they kept jerking me around so I went through mine and again cashed out. This time I had enough to do what I wanted to to the car, I just needed to buy the parts but I used my GI bill for that.

 

So below are the before pictures. I will be shaving a few things and doing a 98-01 front and rear end conversion. I bought brand new front and rear bumpers, a used drivers door, a used trunk, a used driver side fender, a used rear trim piece. I had to buy used headlights because I am doing the conversion and they came in this week. I am going to buff them out right now, picts of before and after will be up tonight. I am also working on repainting the rims, should be done real soon.

I am also going to be de-ricing it as much as I can.

All the crap I bought to be put on-



Damage from being hit twice-



















Other before picts-

 

Oh ****, I'm the dude who sold you that orange fender. Haha wassup bro.

 

Ha, now you know what's going down with the car

 

Just officially finished the headlights. Bought them from a member on here and they needed a bit of love. I cleaned the entire thing with soap and water, wetsanded with 2000 grit then hit them with my buffer with a terry cloth pad and Mothers Mag polish. Lastly, gave them a coat of Plexus. Came out as good as new, crystal clear without a single scratch.

 

Update-

I would have taken picts but the battery for my camera died. He said he sould be ready to shoot the paint and clear next late next week or early the following week. I will stop by next friday and get some picts.

The rims are done, came out damn clean for a rattle can job.

I dropped over $1600 today, paint and clear was a little over $700 and I gave him 9 bills for the work he has already done. He shaved the doors, shaved the roof squiter and the antenna. He painted the jams of the new door, the trunk and the fenders, looks very good so far. I didn't realize how good the stock color is once it looks new. You can really see the flakes in it.

 

Also, got a call from Redzone, the new motor will be done monday
