Default Before and after

Wrecked my car late december, just got it back from the body shop!

BEFORE:



WRECK:



AFTER:



The body shop did a pretty good job I thought, just took them 2 1/2 months but the rest of the body kit will be gone after I paint the stock stuff I bought.

So if anyone wants a nice newly painted rear bumber (not sure of the brand honestly, but garantee you wont see it on another car) and black widow side skirts I'll sell for cheap.

Not the first time I've heard that..

you know whats funny, the car looks kinda weird because the front bumber isn't as low as the BW was, but I get more looks now and people saying my car looks sweet.. when I think it looks rediculous, but ah well. I'm very pleased with the turn out of my car and how the stock front end looks agian. hey when you've had a different front end on your car for 1 1/2 years, its like getting a body kit agian

You got it Matt, but I didn't total mine you fool!

I wouldn't say honda-tech has beat me, visiting here often makes me realize how well a stock looking car can look..

besides having a huge front end had lots of problems, my paint was cracking, and I had 2 cracks on the bottom from bumbs, it was just starting to look bad, I couldn't back up my drive way before it was so low, but now I can!

A couple of my friends have type-r's and I just really love the way those cars look stock and thats what I'm going for.

I wanted to go JDM but ah well. im happy with it now

[edit] can't spell...
