[QUOTE=nyioo7;3445296]word of advice, i got mine for 2k and it was all perfect, body, engine etc. no trouble. and after 2 weeks later, some jackass ran into my car and there's a big ass dent now in rear, and after like 4 months later, another jackass tht parked next to me backed out w/o lookin to the side and ran a wheel into the car, and i got another dent. body shop says it's gonna cost about 700-1k to straight tht out and repaint it.

my point is pplz can't drive! so becareful.... haha.[/QUo

Gotcha!

My rust-prone areas(3 spots on rear quarter, both sides) are just that, rust. It's small, hard to notice w/ my paint color but still, the damage is done. Still, never thought to spray WD-40 on those areas... on a newer car, without rust that is. Sounds like a good idea, assuming it has no negative affect on the paint.
Any oil based lube that will not harm your paint will slow the rust process down.

if you want a decent suspension setup go with sprint springs and tokico blue struts, has a nice ride to it, not to hard not to soft either and you should be looking at like 4-500 bucks for everything

I'm sorry just to make sure, what's the name of the company that makes sprint springs?

for that kind of money on paint & body I would have painted the rocker panels and had the body shop do a better tape up job on the front bumper...



of course that's just my opinion

The line is in fact off without the lip which happens to be what you're seeing.
Thanks for you opinion.
