Syn's 7 *pics*

Hey guys just thought i'd show you some pics of my ride. I repainted it almost exactly 5 years ago with diamont base/clear, and it still looks great! Been driving this car since high school and i still f'n love it. Has been an excellent cruiser/daily driver and i've had very few problems with it, in fact its only been broke down/unable to drive twice. Once when i had an alternator die, and once when my oil cooler hoses broke. Other than that it has been very reliable and a great little car. Its had its share of little problems but i enjoy working on it.

Ive done a few mods, Cone air intake, a/c removal, omp removal, upgraded clutch.
Exhaust is a bonez cat with racing beat cat-back, sounds great. Not a race car but pretty damn fun regardless. Gets up and whoops most hondas asses np.

That is the factory (Ondo Blue Mettalic). The high solids clear gives it the nice depth (darker face,brighter cast).

Yes blue > all. Of course im not biased or anything...
