Default Some pics at the end of summer

Ya, it's the end of summer here already, lol. We will have frost in the next couple of weeks, summer is too short.

Me and a couple buddies drove out to watch Sport Compact Day at Gimli Raceway, stopped and took a few pics on the way back. Car has had a rough summer, with the front lip getting ripped off as I was learning to drive a lowered car, lol. I'm planning a re-do in the spring with the stripe gone, stock EK sideskirts, and a new front lip. Let me know what you think.

Thats why this is called "OneCamOnly" . For some its not about the price. Its about the pride in which they take in building a Single Cam motor that stomps on all others. Sure it might cost a little more money for someone to get what they want out of a Single Cam motor. But doing a swap is too easy.Step up!

I guess my main issue with the pinstripe is that it was there when I bought it, and it's not something I would have put there myself. That and the guy I bought it from has pretty well cloned his new car, a 2001ish Accord to look the same (silver, same decal, etc) and although we are nowhere close to each other, it's his look and not mine. The sideskirts are changing in the spring for sure, and a new front lip will be added at that time as well.

In the meantime, I've almost got all the stuff to do my B20 swap (sorry, too many cams I know), and I'll be pretty happy with the car as it sits for a while. Thanks for the comments!

I thought I'd update this, I got rear-ended just after New Years this winter, so the car went into the shop and had some work done:
-new rear bumper
-repainted rear lip
-repainted trunklid
-repaired and repainted driver's rear 1/4 panel

While it was in there I had some other work done:
-painted new front lip
-painted OEM sideskirts
-painted M3 style trunk spoiler lip
-repaired door dings and key damage and repainted entire driver's side of car
-pinstripe removed

And I picked up a new set of wheels last week, and got a chance to try them out. The rear fenders will need to be rolled, but I think it looks good. B20 swap is getting very close to completed, just having trouble finding time to work on it since the weather got nice.
