Hey,
Names Josh, this is my hatch.
got it for free because I had to rebuild the engine for my brother and in-tern he gave it to me.
This is when I got her.
I then stripped the interior and dynomatted it all, and sound proofed the hatch even more.
I then decided the interior was pretty mint, and moved on to other things.
My 2 sets of rims were rusted to hell and looked horrible.
Before
After a few hours
And the car looks like this now.
Ive dont a bunch of other things but didnt take pics (exhaust, window tint, muffler, HID's front lip, enkei rims, blackedout tails, tow hook.... etc)
Then the winter look:
Summer is here and the perfect time to clean up the Hatch.
Removed all stickers, tow hooks, and anything rice at all. This hatch will go back to 80% stock.
Let the bodywork begin!
Now off to paint
Now how she looks after paint.
Alright and this was the finished Hatch
UNFORTUNATELY, 8 days later, this happened.
No need to get into details but shit happens on the way to the drag strip.
So lets rebuild her again. (Hatchbacks are cursed I swear it)
New SIR Tails
New Hid Green Fogs
Wheel alignment
5 SPEED TRANNY SWAP!!!
Valve cover gasket... again...
Cleaned up engine bay a little...
He... Follow's ,me around :S
And this is what she looks like now, I will be repainting her this week (only hood and bumper are needed) then buff out the few scratches on the paint.
Random... but.. Like father like son
Anyways, thanks for looking through this and I'd love to hear what you guys/girls have to say about my hatch!
Thanks!
