I'll try to get some pics up tomorrow, its raining here today and I'd like to give it a bath first. I'm going this weekend to get the windows tinted, my cousin works at a tint shop and he's gonna do me a solid. He owes me for helping him rebuild the motor in his Accord. I also found a place to recover the front seats for $425.

Sorry for the delay in getting pics up, the weather here was crap when I got it and I've been busy since.

Side shot with faded B pillar, how can I remove the paint without scratching up the metal underneath ?


Divers side with its two stablemates in the background, I need to work on the headlight


Here's the back, unfortunately no spoiler


Now down to business, look how clean it is


Some paintless dent removal should take care of these


The front seats are getting recovered and will be joined by a brake boot, otherwise the interior is pretty nice.

Yeah, I was really impressed with how clean it came. I know the dealership cleaned it up but how dirty could it have been to come that clean with the amount of work small dealerships normally put into stuff ? The car seems very mechanically sound and the few cosmetic issues are easily fixed. The best part of the engine shot is the small sticker on the cam gear cover. The belt was done 1-24-08 at 108,000 miles, I rolled it over 118,000 bringing it home. That 10,000 miles in three years, that definitely explains the low miles.
