Default My CBP EH3 True East

Names Dj I drive a 92 Civic Si. I'm 20 and work in a grocery store (now full time) The car itself has 317k lol and the motor is original and still running pretty good. I know the shell is pretty bad however due to the mileage and weather (new england) it was bound to happen but it will all be worked but money is kinda tight because I'm expecting my son in 2 months!!!, so progress has been slow but I know I'm where I'm heading with this one and I know the outcome will be great. When car gets painted most of the stuff will go back to original as I'm trying to keep this car as OEM as possible. I will be building a Ls/Vtec as well that will be stuffed with mostly oem components. Well enough talk hear are some pics.

When I got it



Working on a simple tuck



Stickerd the hatch due to rust and rot(will get new one when it's time for paint SO PLEASE DONT BEAT ME UP lol





OEM Full nose mask



Stock tip I polished (I only worked this to 1000 grit then wet sand)





A lil shoot by Breezy and his D5000 (pics may look a little grainy sorry didn't edit them myself)

Despite the sticker collage on the trunk, I like it. fresh paint job will make this car really nice.

Nice, on relocating the sunroof switch. I did the same. it looks wayyy cleaner with the coin pocket on the left so the right side looks complete and the left side looks like no buttons should be there, not like theres some sort of block off plate there. Plus, who uses the dimmer to actually dim? Mine is always on full brightness, so I just jumped the dimming wires and removed the switch. I'm sure you did the same, haha. Or maybe you just have the whole switch behind the coin pocket
