Check me to the list of people that hate your wing. I like the rest though. Well except the smashed front end, but you know that.

More than I had or wanted to pay I guess for the miles.

I sent you a PM in regards to the guy you bought it from.

Glad it ended up with someone that would take care of it.

My train of thought on seeing the pics: "Damn, that sucks! Doesn't look like serious damage though... pretty nice looking car- wait, what is that? Is that... a wing?!? Oh god NOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooo.....

I doubt that thing looks good in person...the legs on that thing are the worst part.

The wing looks bad reguardless of how you view it. If you aren't into rice'ness, then i suggest you get some stock taillights and donate the bench to a park. By the way, JDM FD's look the same as USDM FD's of the same year. I suggest you cancel the cwest kit and get a 99 spec front end!

LOL haha guys! lay off the wing! haha, the stock taillights are back on.. i swear, anybody in southern cali 626 area is welcome to come see the car.. it looks great in person and it does serve it's purpose on track.. new front bumper coming next saturday! and i'm going to Luxury Motor Works in monrovia tomorrow at 11am to see why i'm leaking boost.. i'm knocking about 40% above 3000 rpm right now, and full boost is about .5psi to 1psi.. man, the car wreaks because the engine is running so rich now

try checkin all your vacume hoses befor you pay to have it looked at usually when you got turbo the you just dont you got a vac hose off. check around the wastegate control actuator ( its under the car by the front pass. tire. also after you get that bumper off check all your pipes and **** could have put a hole in one of them. if you took off the altezzas good for you i knew there would be at least one person who would buy those but at least the guy who owned the car b4 you didnt put a replica veilside kit on your car with rivets in the side skirts ( thats gonna be a bitch for me to fix ) good luck thought

Sorry about your accident, could have been much worse. And I agree with everyone else. Lose the wing. Good luck with it.

You have to actually take it to the track for that to matter.

holy crap dude thats a damn shame....


Anyway good luck in getting this fixed up, I had some dumb highschool girl back into me in my last car - luckily it was a hyundai made completely of plastic lol - but I know how easily a fiberglass bodykit could have been broken had it been my rx7...
