Default benmyfriend's new EF (56k no way)

Just took some pics real quick of user benmyfriend's EF 91 Si he got a couple months back. A few weeks after he got it, it was stolen. The ignition column was stripped and his rims were stolen. The cops recovered it over in the eastbay. It's rollin on steelies for now. It's completely bone stock, besides the fact that we gutted it. Heres what it looks like right now.












UPDATED: 12/5/05
Put in the new ignition. Ben gets to use his key to start the car again (instead of a screwdriver )


Then, we went up to Frisco to order some new rims. They're a suprise . He'll have them by Friday or Saturday, so we'll have some pics by then. The previous owner painted the rear brake drums red, and while you cant see that while he's riding on steelies, it would look pretty fugly to have red brake drums with rims. So we decided to paint them black.







Doesn't look like much now, but it'll look alot better than the red once it's sittin on rims.

UPDATED: 12/10/05
Picked up and put on the rims today. 5Zigen FN01R-Cs in flat black wrapped in Yokohama ES100s





By the time we finished putting them on, it was dark out, so heres just a preview of what the rims look like on the car. Will be doing a little shoot soon, and yes, the car does need to be slammed...

The interior is not repainted. Stock paint.
