  • JDMWago666JDMWago666 Senior Wagonist
    Looking good, whats the final color going to be?
  • christofferchristoffer Wagonist
    Same color as the hood. The roof and hatch are flat black. The rear quarters are going to be basically 100% Bondo, lots of rust on the car that won't be getting the proper fix as the BMW takes pretty much all of my car money.
  • christofferchristoffer Wagonist
    Primer and rock guard...
  • christofferchristoffer Wagonist

    Starting to look real good. Keep it up. :D

    Progress will be slowed a bit, as I received most of the parts for my M30 rebuild. I still need to respray the hood and paint the front bumper cover. Anyone know of a good source (inexpensive) source for newer bumper signals?

    If you switch to hatchback/sedan/crx rear struts, it won't be so low in the back. The wagon rear struts have a lower spring perch (and longer rear springs) than the rest of the civics/crx.

    Nice job on fixing it up, and sweet 5-series.

    Thank you!

    you need to paint your skirts, put your moldings back on, and paint the top of your bumpers above the molding back to black. the car will look 1000x better. good start though so far, nice to see somebody putting in work.
  • christofferchristoffer Wagonist
    Put on an Integra lip and steering wheel. The Prelude wheel was too close to the stalks.
  • christofferchristoffer Wagonist
    Put in the hatchback struts in the rear as suggested....much better.
