#182224 For starts:
My car is a 1993 Honda Ex Coupe. This car was saved from going to the junkyard. My friends girlfriend jumped a set a railroad tracks and snapped the lower ball joint. Broke the passenger side half shaft at the transmission.
The car was given to me in November of 2009. Since then i replaced the ball joint and half shaft. Now she runs and drives.
The car was never a looker. The friend of my pulled the fenders out because he slammed the car 3inches on Neuspeed springs and koni yellows. The fenders looked like booty. The car had the normal honda rust in the rear quarter panels. I purchased used fenders from a local junkyard, and got quarter panels of ebay. Now the body is coming along nicely. Looking alot better.

The car performed like crap. Did the full tune-up running 8.5mm NGK Red Wires. NGK V-Power plugs. and man did they make a difference. The guy who had owned it before me ran auto light plats in it. The car was an automatic when it was given to me but i converted it to a 5spd with a stage f1 clutch kit. and a 8lbs flywheel. and added a true cold air intake

Added a little apparel

#183143 Yep, don't like the banner at all, either. Really does a disservice to the rest of the rescue effort. But, you can't *tell* someone something's not cool, they have to learn it on their own. He'll probably grow out of it in a year or two.

#183191 x2..car would look way cleaner without the banner or maybe a smaller version of it.

#183200 Nah, the banner isn't "ricer".

It's just that we think it's ... silly, and/or a lame attempt to be cool. The kind of thing you do in High School, then grow out of later. I'm not telling you to take it off, I'm telling you my opinion of it.

I mean, you're driving around with a giant "shocker" symbol on your car - which everyone under fifty years old knows it's when you stick two fingers up a girl's cunt and one pinky in her asshole. The banner is just a bit too "in-your-face" for me. It would be better if it was more discreet. Ie., not giant lettering on your windscreen.
