Just thought I'd make an official build thread. I posted my introduction a couple of weeks ago. I bought my '98 about 6 months ago for $1500. I left it completely stock until just recently, I did restore the headlights and build a ghetto bumper lip since the replica that was on was busted. Current plan is to build a nice looking daily driven 4 door, and I plan to do it without spending much money.

Before and after the DIY Home Depot bumper build, and I epoxied on an Acura emblem I pulled off an Acura Legend in the junkyard.
I also experimented with various junkyards shift knobs until I settled on a 3rd gen Eclipse shift knob, due to its weight and comfort.
RECENTLY... I replaced the gauge lights with LEDs after they burnt out. Then I replaced the map and dome lights with LEDs, and put yellow bulbs in the high beams.
After that I picked up some EP3 rims for only $140, and finally got rid of those wack 14 inch Webs.
I also picked up a no name strut bar from a local tire shop that had it laying around. Not bad for $10.
Then I got an OBXr exhaust from a guy on craigslist for $30.
I also picked up some Tein lowering springs from a guy in Alabama, who was asking $50 but let me have them for $20 since I drove so far for them.
This week I have a few parts arriving from ebay.
A Speedzone Motorworks rear visor:
Some 6000k HIDs from DDMtuning
Rear towhook:
And I want to order some shocks to install my lowering springs with. Probably Koni orange, or Skunk2s.
And I plan on painting the valve cover. Either red or yellow, still undecided.
