Default The Little Civic That Could

It's been a while since I've posted pictures of the turd, but here goes.

Owned for 8+ years, 170,000+ miles, etc.

Now that I have graduated and am working full time with unlimited overtime, stay tuned... I now also have a second car and a sport bike that I can rely on for commuting so I have time to strip the engine bay and interior for a swap and paint.

I'm digging the wheel and the door panels. Is there any way to get the wrinkles out?

Thanks.

As for the panels, yeah. I just rushed these as I wasn't sure whether or not I'd like the pattern.

I have a lot more of the material if I ever decide to re-do them.

Car looks great. What are you plans for her? Just a single cam in it right now or what? Good luck though and have fun.

Clean car. Always has been. And it keeps getting better.

Not too many guys keep a car that long and still have the passion to mod it.

Looking forward to what you have planned.

Thanks! Single cam until the summer or so. The car would be done by now if the car payment on my new car didn't cost as much as a mortgage payment LOL. As for plans, stay tuned.

Thanks! My ex-gf bought that for me back in high school. My uncle and I installed it with a relay from Radio Shack.

Haha, I drive a lot. School was 165 miles away, and I came home quite a bit, and my daily commute to work is 45 miles round trip.

LOL, yes it's an R32 and no it's not my daily. Haha. However, I did buy it at the end of September and it already has 4,000 miles.
