Winter Sucks!!! Crashed the coupe...
so i dont have any pics to put up but i messed up my 98 civic coupe the other day during a sleet/snow fall. front/rear bumpers, fender, headlights, fender linings, and that little piece under the taillamp needs to be replaced.
anybody know a reliable site to order from? AM or OEM is fine but i need whatevers cheap because im tight right now.
ill be re-painting the entire car most likely. not sure if i wanna stick with Taffeta White or change it up. any ideas?
sucks cuz i just got tax returns and i was pumped to order new parts :/
thanks in advance,
ryan

Winter sucks HARD. I wrecked my coupe because of rain. I was getting on the freeway and my car hydroplaned into a tree. My poor coupe T.T
Picked up an SI hatch with SIR II interior after I got money for parting her out though. Still not the same though =[

Re: Winter Sucks!!! Crashed the coupe...
Keep it white! I love Taffeta white. I use to have a milano red EK 97, which I painted Taffeta white. Not only was it a hassle removing the motor and all the plastic trim pieces, parts of the chasis were still RED, like under the carpet. I didn't paint the entire chasis, just engine bay and door jams + entire out of car, but knowing parts of the car was still red underneath bugged me. Keep it Taffeta white, trust me, I regretted doing that to my hatch. At least I got an original white 2000 hatch now OH yes, and don't do champ white, it will still be noticeably off when comparing engine bay to the exterior. I mean I'm meticulous about those things and I'm sure other honda peeps would see the diff.

Keep it white (for ease of painting). No Championship either (imo).

I'd try buying most parts used through H-T MarketPlace or eBay or car-part.com (salvage).
