upload a picture of your car to your myspace album or other image hosting site. then go to the image's location and highlight all of the text of that URL. then right click it and select "copy image location"

then type this into the body of a comment:

true. props on a clean looking EX body though. you could always swap the D series or boost it!

im probably just gonna boost it! first im gonna start with the internals and before boostin it up though because i was thinkin of jus boosting it without any mods except i/h/e but i realise that would be a stupid thing to do and plus i had a friend who blew his engine running on 8 psi

what color is the side trim/mirrors?

also, if you post the VIN, you can confirm if it's an EX or DX model... I'd also compare vins on the engine to the one in the window

if they match, there's a chance it's an EX badge on a DX (no LX coupes in the 96-98 range)
