well i am still looking for a clean sol or sol shell if anyone knows of one for sale. kind of need to get one in the next week or so if i'm gonna get one at all. the car i looked at today turned out to be a piece. i was told on the phone that it was a great looking 97 Si, turned out to be a beat down and busted S that smelled bad.

anyways:

Side shot:


rear angle:


shifter/matching boot


Frontlook @ the fender & door...I marined them, result of lots of wet-sanding and being patient)


Close up of a wheel CP035s FTMFW!:


not bad for the conditions at hand IMO. Paint will be coming soon(right after turbo)

that's from closing the door by the window too much

best way to handle it is to take off the door panel, loosen all the bolts on the window regulator, reposition it, and then retorque all bolts

well, first of all, stop putting heinekens on your roof

then, get some rubbing compound and race glaze, compound it, glaze it, then wax it.... id do it by hand..... if its real bad you might have to fine wetsand a lil, then the mentioned process. (which requires a buffing wheel then, and is also a pain to clean up.)

*EDIT: ignore all that i thought you were worried about the swirl marks-leave it to me to notice the little details nobody else cares about, and totally overlook the real problem. Do what wrong says

*EDIT #2.... and its not your car anyway lol, so why am i telling you about the heineken on the roof. Damn its been a long day i guess

Thought so, came out great. Yea i got my reflectors smoked too. So far you're the 2nd soler i know who's been able to open up those black housing lights from ebay. Saxman (who does HID retrofits) said the glue used was different than the first 1pcs that came out. Congrats lol

^^ there is a little white thing inside the door that controls how far up or down the window the window is aloud to go. easy 5 min fix. Maybe Ill do a little write up.

Also, I didnt realize how rare the samba sol is. I've looking around and i can only find pics of a few. If anyone has some pics of a samba del sol, post em up!!!!!

Just finished building the b20vtec setup. Its not installed and running awesome!!!!! I'm getting CTR % lug and a freshhhh paint job within the next two to three months!!
