Default Lame pictures of a lame car

Here's my 1993 EG8. Just picked up the Mugens..Let me know what you guys think











Yeah I've got the Mugen lug nut caps, I just can't fit them on with these HUGE lugs. I'm replacing them this weekend. And those tow hooks are coming off too haha.

Looks like a nice start.

Likes:
Mugen Rims
Mudguards

Dislikes:
Tow Hooks
H&R sticker on the rear filler caps by the back window

I'd consider a Mugen sedan front lip and sideskirts (if you can find them), some JDM Ferio rear filler caps, paint the CF hood and trunk white, add some JDM window visors and call it a day. Looking good

I'm planning on ditching the tow hooks pretty soon. I just get a kick out of telling people the rear one is a wheelie-bar when they ask what it is. And you're right, that H&R sticker was from a few years ago, I have something a little better now a days Thanks for the suggestions!

Pretty lame gotta admit. I hate cf hood/trunks now. The tow hooks are super rice (glad there coming off) Rims are the only decent thing and those I don't really like.

But it's your car and if you like it that is all what matters :D

very nice, i would put a coupe/hatch front bumper on it, lower it more, remove mudflaps and put a nice lip kit all the way around (front, rear, sides)

my fav eg8 of all time was civicseths sedan, love that sh#$

even though he had the stock 4dr front bumper (i dont like much) he made it look aight

I was wanting to put a Coupe front bumper on it, but I heard that you had to get the fenders and hood too. Is that not true?

Not bad but i would think about painting the door handles white and possibly the molding just too much contrast of the black and white...

I like the black and white contrast even though I've never been a fan of black rims. They are available for trade if anyone is interested BTW..

Next for the car is to wire tuck the bay a bit, and go lower once I get the chance to roll the fenders. Also, if anyone knows where to find a decent priced Ferio front/rear lip that'd be helpful.

i kinda like these sedans in a way... i would just swap the front bumper from a coupe or hatch. slam the shiet out of it and call it a day. not bad though.

Dont like the Mugen font on the spoke. Paint the hood and trunk and you have a winner.

nah man it'll be just fine

where the bumper meets the fenders just wont fit absolutely ridiculously perfect but who cares, you can get it to fit so close no one will notice

hood fits the exact same - i know cause i put one on

fenders could be different, i dont know but i would just get teh front bumper and you'll be good, if i was on my other computer i would post a bunch of pics of eg8's with coupe bumpers on them

Ok well I appriciate the suggestions about painting the hood/trunk. I'm not going to though I'll also look into the deal about the coupe front bumper; I've always liked that style better myself.

Any suggestions from the people who agree with me that the car is lame? I know that it's not as nice as 90% of the cars on here..But it's come a LONG way from what it was. It's been through an auto to manual swap, a few motor swaps, and a few bad ideas hahaha. I just got done doing body work and repainting it this week, I was just excited to show you guys my lame car!
