Default My car is back in action with pics(56k ehhh)

i would just like to say thanks to the peeps at h-t ..especially edgaaaar....i was in an accident around dec 10 and it was somewhat messed up ...heres some before and after pics...i got it back about a week and a half ago after having to shell out all the money myself because i had liability...the tech part is that i did everything except the straightening part which a body shop did...just like to say thanks to the board

Is it just me or do you have awful overhang from those headlights when you replaced the front end? Oh well, good job anyways Was the car an EX or Si before...only reason I ask is because you replaced it with the EX front bumper and grille (atleast thats what it looks like to me)

u gotta think, its not like its white unpainted wings west fang agressor kit or something he slapped on thinkin it was cool. he only has liability, so he shelled out what he could, most likely to simply get his car back into good decent running order for school/work/etc. might not be in the budget. but its present point gets him on the road again

Sweet, what did you have to get straightened? I'm about to replace my radiator support and a fender and go ahead and to the 99-00 conversion hopefully this weekend if it says 'warm', warm being a relative term. The good thing is most everything is a bolt on affair with hondas.

good to see you're back on the road, accidents can really set you back. i guess it wasnt' an accident if someone hit you on purpose.
