My Slow ES2 Build

[iCHARRLZ]

This build was on honda-tech but I think this is a better place for it. This was my sister's car but she got a 2012 Sentra last year so I got this car. I'm only 17 so don't expect any baller stuff.

This is how it looked when I got it. New wheels(I don't like them), Halo lights(bleh), Stick on vents(dafuq?)


The first thing I did was remove those vents. I hated them so much I lit their remains on fire in the backyard.
Then I got a black grill, window visors, and foglights.


Then I got my front lip.


Then I painted the chrome hood trim black(I hate chrome)


I finally replaced the Halos in January. I should have just stopped right here and saved up for coil overs.


I was going ham with a friend on the highway and I hit something.(I still don't know what it was, probably a traffic cone.)


Then I had to get my oil change and VCG replaced. I also realized how much I hate how that exhaust looks


The paint on the mirrors was also cracked to hell, so I sanded them down and painted them black.


I started driving it to school and this only furthered my bumper damage. So I shaved the paint off and primered it, I think it looks better then the stock cracked up bumper. I'm getting it painted this summer.


One day I got bored and decided to paint my spark plug wire cover to match the emblem.


Then I did the rear emblem and painted the rear chrome trim black.(looks ok but it would look way better color-matched IMO)


I need more low.



That's where I'm at now. Next I plan on getting Progress lowering springs and mud guards.

Looking good keep it up man

[iCHARRLZ]

I wish I could keep it up but on my drive home from school today some dumbass in a black SUV was texting and almost ran me off the road. I had to swerve to avoid him. I was in the right lane so you know what that means, a fat ass curb mark on my wheel.

I'm so pissed right now I wanna punch a baby and C4 every black SUV I see.

Haha, thanks. I didn't really like those wheels but it's the fact that damage was caused to my car because of someone else's stupidity that pissed me off. I'm gonna get Konig Flatouts, XXR 531's, or Enkei RPF1's when I get the money.

that sucks, lmk if you want those springs

Despite my previous need to cause harm to a small human, things are starting to get better. I'm getting more hours at work, my insurance is paid until November, and I got my new inspection sticker. I can't wait till June 1st when school lets out for the summer and I can start doing stuff again. Also, I might paint my mirrors back silver next week. And If I don't decide to get Rokkor/Raceland coil overs I might get those springs.
