although the main reason i am getting the camber kit is more of a safety/security thing. i like the idea of being able to adjust stuff to my liking Lol plus, im weird and picky. things have to match otherwise it bugs the crap out of me so im getting the skunk2 kit for the front to match the rear hahaha

i finally got my front camber kit put on, and the rest of my wheels mounted and balanced. i put them on just for giggles no adjustments yet. i will post more pictures later this week when i get hold of a camber adjustment tool. luckily my dad has a buddy with one so i will make this thing perfect.
i also got the centercaps out, but one was busted so i have to get a replacement no big deal though Lol
ignore the big cut out where the exhaust is, previous owner did that but i have a new bumper
unfortunately, these will be my last few posts on here for a while. I leave for my National Guard training next week and will be gone for 6 months. 2 of which i will have no access to a computer. on the bright side, this is where the real fun begins. military = money = lots of honda parts

Still stuck here at fort Jackson, SC. My buddies thought it would be a good idea and send me a picture of my babe and torture me as she sits in the garage while I'm gone. I can't wait until I come back!
On the bright side, she's finally hitting the body shop to get fixed and repainted this Saturday! I will try and post pictures of the progress when I come back home for Christmas leave.

Here are a few pictures of some progress! She is getting ready for primer and sanding!
Apparently smoothing the front fenders was a little hard from all the heating/cooling I did to pull the fenders out haha
A tiny little rust bubble on the roof turned out to be a bit bigger than expected haha
Removed all the glass and found some more rust under the rear window
More pictures coming soon! She'll definitely be ready for the road by the time I get home.

She's almost there! So far the car has been primed and blocked 2 times. All the blue spots are little dents that decided to show up just now and had to be fixed before getting blocked a 3rd time.
These dark spots are factory seam spots, which will be removed as well as all the other factory waves and seams. Needless to say, it's going to be pretty slick. I'm really excited to see the final outcome.
Unfortunately due to such cold weather, the timeline has been pushed back a bit, but then again I don't really mind. It's not like I would drive out in the cold salty snow anyway haha.
