Once painted, how long will the #aintcare swag last?

I'll be straight up. I will NEVER baby this car. Not that I don't want to take care of it or anything. But I can promise you I will still drive through potholes at 45, get stuck on speed bumps, and hammer-down in every drive-way I pull in.


Hopefully everyone(who already does) will still like my car

I'm definitely going to miss all of the character, that is for sure :/ Every time I see my car, I see a story. every angle of my car will tell you a crazy/funny/wtf story, which is why I ******* love this thing no matter how bad it looks.

I'm just hoping that by painting it, it will tell a different story. maybe more of a "baller", "G-thang" story, and less of the "oh that? I drove into a wall in the rain" story

Love the description. Same thing with my car. Kit is full of cracks and pieces missing. Each one had its own story

Hell yea, its good to see primos. I still really just want a nice set of 16s or 17s.

Jeez... traction issues with those?

I'm not sure if you're asking me, since I am asking his opinion on them but their base model without camber adjust and dual tube design are $870 Canadian shipped to my place. And the monotube model with camber adjustability is something like $3-400 more. check out driftworks.com and go see their fc coilovers.

Daily, na just a weekender / toy. Pumps fine, done about 5000km on it to date. yeh all the warning lights are set up. I've blown a fuse before - light went off - changed fuse - good as gold.

Its over 100deg Fahrenheit here most days in summer. I've had no overheating issues yet.

Wow! How was the drive? Any mechanical problems along the way? My fear of driving the fc long distances :/

People tell me all the time,"put it away, dont drive it."

My response is, "its a damn car! What good does it do me stuck in a garage?"
