The Rear

Badgeless. I still love those S4 taillights! I like the idea of saying, "YES it's an 80's car that just whooped your brand new, $400 a month, low-emissions, tree-hugging econobox!"

Now that look at this thread it really does look like I'm on the pipe!

I was posting pix of the new TII. I'll try again.

I just pulled off the sunroof panel—rusted—and cracked the driver's side screw mechanism in the process of cleaning out the runners. Ho hum. Got all the dings Bondo-ed abd drying. Dremmeled out and Bondo-ed the cancer around rear hatch drain and one of the pedestals of the rear spoiler. Tomorrow I'll sand and prime.

The engine was just fully rebuilt and streetported. Needs and intake, new TPS, some new vacuum hoses, a diff mount and a nice engine bay detailing. BTW, when I drove it home I did open her up on the expressway to find there are NO hesitations! That's one nightmare I don't have to go through again.

Here's the shots:

Gotta change that sig soon!

Who, me? How'd you find pics of my car? But no, sorry, my car is factory OEM Blaze Red. It's the original paint job, still holding up pretty well, but definitely shows its age in some places(spoiler, rear bumper, etc)

Steve

P.S. Everybody knows that Civic drivers are freight-truck-robbing, huge muscled, bad *** muthafuckaz! No one would beat me up if I told them that!

That's an old plate! I didn't even know they were still using the blue ones that late. Oh well.

I would like to see more pictures of your car!
