It's amazing how a change in color of the side moldings can dramatically change the look of the car.

I'd definatley put a set of meshies or some sort of old school set of jap wheels on it and call it a day as far as looks.

Maybe get a set of racing beat springs and some adjustable struts? (tokicko illuminas, kyb agx's, koni adjustables)

Nice car

I used to have an SE as well.

Thumbs up

I've never seen an 88 SE with so many miles that looked so good. It's a great looking car and I hope you keep it as clean as it is.

Edit: You should get those minor dents out though... it would look even cleaner.

Yeah most likely after the engine blows, but its still running strong on the rebuild, probably 8k on the motor now? I'm about to pick up the s13 pignose off a member on rx7club, do you guys know if the fitment is perfect? Like it'll just fit right up to the bumper?

Bringing it back to life, FC revamped.

finally completed my exterior portion of my base FC streetported. I tried my best to make it look simple and as clean as possible. check out the pictures, let me know if you guys like it or dislike it.

I didn't realize 88 SEs came with sunroofs. Very clean car though, especially after the exterior upgrades.

Nice work.

Are you sure that's an SE? I'm with the other guy who thought they didn't come with sunroofs.
