Default Need your opinion! Is this EJ1 exterior worth fixing?

I wanted to know if fixing up the exterior will be worth it on this shell. I don't want to invest in it if its gonna cost alot to fix the exterior. Already changed the rear and front bumper, driver side fender. Thats all the work so far done. Interior is mint though. Here is the main damage:

Bought the car with this ding.


This happend at the fourth of July. Bullet hole...long story. Little rust on door.


Guy said the car was never hit but the front light is not lining up correctly.

A crappy bumper could be the problem to your headlight issue.

I really think that it is worth fixing. All the problems do seem minor. Save another Honda!

i think it's worth fixing...if it's your project car, then why not? if not, then don't bother with it and find another...those problems arent as bad as the problems i had on my ej1 when i first got it

whatever you choose, good luck
