Default I couldnt resist....

Everyone has been posting pictures of there freshly washed cars, and the weather was so nice today i couldnt resist getting out there and cleaning my Sol up and whoring a few more pictures on here lol. Before i post the pictures let me explain the current state that my car is in. OK my front end, very sad looking at this point and heres why.
1. I hit a tire on the highway that fucked up my front bumper and drivers side fender
2. Drivers side fender was replaced BUT it got painted the wrong shade of red
3. Passenger side front fender has always been a little darker red cuz it came off a parts when i first got this thing, anyways, some gifted moron must have walked into my car at home depot with one of those lumber carts because I had a narrow dent in my fender and of course no one around to say sorry.
4. The car looks like its got some sort of skin cancer because a guy in the Wal-mart parking lot was trying to build buisness for his new body shop. He offerd to fix the many issues with the front of my car for free, so i figured what the hey, why not. Well, the passenger fender came out pretty good, everything else isnt all that impressive, which is fine cuz its all getting replaced eventually lol.

All and all the car looks good and it runs even better, the only real mechanical issue right now is transmission in dire need of new bearings. OK here are the pics.

this little radiator hose is what i believe is keeping me from 10psi


I took someones thread to heart and decided to wash the underside of my hood, it was really pretty nasty, and its still not perfect. Just look close at the edges to see the grime, and just imagine that every where for a before picture lol

Turbo :woowoo:

Could definitely use some different rims, sorry but I think those are about the ugliest Honda OEM rim. :happysad:

Not bad overall though, looks like some things could use some hiding (passenger floor board) but as long as it runs well.
