Some nice shots I took today...

 

[Andrew]

In all seriousness, (I know you just bought the car...)
That fender flare thingy runs almost perfectly in line with the pinstriping!

Almost looks... good?
haha

 

[ScrapinSi]

Where in Tampa is that? Looks like ybor...

 

[skipntampa]

most of thos pics were taken in or near downtown, and yeah...im starting to hate those fenders...as soon as I can find some decent ones in the local junk yards around here, theyre mine!!! anyone know of a good way to repair the carcks, cause ive found some fenders but they are starting to get cracked...I was thinking about drilling a hole where the crack ends, then fiberglassing them over both sides so they have reinfocement, what do you guys think?

 

[civicious]

lose the fenders and lower it.



nice ass 1g though

i'd wait it out and try to find some without cracks
once they crack its pretty much guaranteed they will continue to deteriorate
check ebay, i've seen new ones on there
they are very expensive but worth it if you plan to keep the car

 

[skipntampa]

there are most def. plans on keeping this car. After I finish up the del sol, Im going to make this my project...so far there are 2 outcomes....money being the major contributor to the decision and time to finish.

either way this will be the outcome, a swapped d16a1, or some "k" series....dunno which one, but either will be pretty badass, esp. the latter....

 

[reckedracing]

I've got a D16A1 equipped first gen as my daily driver
love it

K series would be better, but also more $$$

Majestic Honda - The Internet's #1 Honda Automotive Parts Store has the fenders at about 180 a piece
maybe you can get metal replacements instead of the plastic?

 

[skipntampa]

yeah, I know it would be $$$ in the end....but it also not going to be touched for the next 6 months, so by then, the price could be a hell of a lot lower, at least "k" series has dropped in price some...

 

[Celerity]

Yeah, the fenders and the pinstripe make that whole thing. I like it like that.

I thpught you wanted these fenders? Still want to trade?

 

[Celerity]

My driver's side fender is cracked.

 

[skipntampa]

My driver's side fender is cracked.

that still saves me a passenger side fender, at least then Id only have to buy 1....hows about you ship the passenger fender and send me $100, and I'll ship both mine out to you....sound like a deal?

 

[Celerity]

Sounds good to me - but I won't be able to do this for awhile. I don't have an open garage space (And this ain't florida - I'm not working in the cold anymore)
