After 2.5 years of working on my EJ1, I can safely say I'm happy where it sits today. I got the car sprayed at a local Earl Scheib; I only paid about $500. For what I paid it turned out very well. It will look even better once I buff everything.

I'm still waiting for my moldings, fog light covers and lip to get sprayed; I'll be picking those up Monday.



Yes, I know the corner light looks like ***; it'll fit really nice once I actually sit down and take care of it.









Check out my project thread for the entire ins and outs here:

If you checked out my project thread/read my original post (which you didn't) you would've known that I have wheels and am planning to buff it out later on in the week.

 

car is ok

stickers are

 

 

it took you 2.5 years to bring your car back to stock with a crooked fog light....damn.

 

It will look really good after all your parts are back on.Locate some ek side skirts and oem si/ex lip(85 new)and mudguards(i have some coming from weaksauce 85.00 shipped for all four).Car is ready just in time for the meets we will be having soon

 

Not bad for a $500 paint job. Once you wetsand and buff, it'll be much better. Keep up the g00d work.

 

your rear fog looks crookit

Yeah it is, I threw it on really quick today. I'll be fixing it as the week comes.

I completely agree. To everyone who is hating, I JUST got the car back hours after I made this thread. I had other things I had to do today; hence I couldn't buff and wetsand it. This is coming later in the week.

I have a Mugen V2 (from JDMSh!t) that I'm going to put on. I've always preferred the EG skirts over EK (I like the simplicity of the EG) and I've never been a fan of mudguards. Thanks for all your support through my project! I'll try to get at a meet before I move out to Idaho!
