pics of my work in progress (beware!! UGLY!!)

yes i know my front bumper doesnt fit right, some stupid f*#k backed into me at best buy, it messed up my front subframe, and cracked my "unbreakable urethane bumper" keep in mind that my car is about 12 months from being done (as far as looks go) because i work at wendys and dont have alot of money coming in.....i am fully aware that it looks like shit right now, (and i know i only have 1 side skirt and door cap on in these pics, these were taken as i was putting the ss and caps on, and hadent done the other side yet)

i think its coming along good. sucks about the bumper thingy, i hope your getting some money for that.

yea, my insurance is paying off the 900.00 in damages (it doesnt look like much, but it damaged alot) im starting to believe our cars are pussies....oh well, good thing i can cut off the subframe and weld a new one on...AGAIN, but i guess it is starting to look better...

Hey man I think you're making some good progress there. This time next year you'll be gettin' mad props (and flamers)! Do you plan to mod the engine too?

by the end of this monthit will be painted a super metallic gold color, i will have my vw rims powdercoated white w/ the "vw" emblems shaved off the center caps (there being done as we speak) and i will have a new front bumper......dont know what yet....but i better decide FAST

Yes hondas are pussies. Hondas dont wreck well, a Volvo wrecks well.
