This is my first car, it was purchased by my Uncle back in 2001 and he got almost all of the optional perks for the EX model, nicer wheels, nicer brakes, wood trim on the doors and console, leather seats (which are actually quite comfortable), tweeters on the dash, hide away cup holders, 4cyl. SOHC v-TEC engine, pretty much everything except the spoiler and fog lights. He used to also have the front bumper cover but when he gave it to my grandpa, he threw it away for whatever reason. It currently has just shy of 80,000 miles on it (when I got it, it had 76,000). My grandpa always has taken wonderful care of his cars, there hasn't been a single mechanical issue with this car since it rolled out of the dealership parking lot. Just recently the only problem I've encountered is some blown fuses (which is what I would expect for a car that's over 10 years old). I need to have my rotor's turned and it's about time for some new tires as well. Other than those two things, this car is clean, only one scratch on the back corner of the trunk. I keep the interior up, clean it when needed, I try to wash the car once a month, depending on weather. That pretty much covers it. Oh yeah, and it's metallic silver. :thumbsup:

Welcome!

You're going to want shocks to go with those lowering springs. Or just skip the whole thing and buy coilovers.

And a custom strut bar..?

Yeah, I figured, why spend money on it when I have plenty of scrap metal at my friends house. I think I'd be able to put something together, may not be as efficient as a "real" one, it would still function though. I'll probably end up just buying one anyway hahah

still won't let me, I have to wait out the 7 day period until the site will allow me to add links of any kind. Sigh.

Yep, so far that's been the only truly successful deterrent for spam.
