Default EG in winter mode!!

Decided to put the EG into winter mode
The fun is done and it's time to get ready for XMAS

Before winter mode



After winter mode (put on the Mazda MX-3 Precidia rims w/ snow shoes)




Can't wait till next spring . Time to get to work on the EG. Anyone want to help me with the wiring for my engine swap! I will give you 2 cases of some of Canadians finest beer

Yeah they use salt and I'm going to put the stock spoiler back on...my spoiler ain't carbon though....

You didn't see any rust, but there is definitely "Honda Cancer Rust" on my poor EG. Replacing the rear fenders and give her a brand new paint job....

Those tires came with the car when I bought it in the summer.
It's a custom exhaust system. Bought the U-J Bends, Resonator and Vibrant Universal Muffler.....

Thanks for the compliments guys....

when I bought the car from my boy in the summer, he gave me these rims too. The problem was the hub bore on MX-3 wheels where too same for my GSR conversions...Had to get the Dremel....and rebore these bad boys...now they fit........
