sup guys.....
Picked up this 96 dx in October of 09.. I just turned 17 so this is my first car

First thing I did was take the tint off. Next me and my friend wet sanded the head lights and did all red tail lights. Next found a old guy who had the HX rims on his corolla lol asked him to sell them to me and he just gave them to me.
Here are a few picks of what the car use to look like to were it stands now.






















2in drop and undercoating

pretty nice start especially for your age. Nice attention to detail too man. Alot of people would have left the wheel wells all over sprayed and junky looking. good job guy.

Wow, very nice, OP! Given the usual shitty state of hondas around here (central FL), yours is a really nice sight for sore eyes. Keep it clean. =)

What did you put in your wheel well? The caption says "undercoating", can you elaborate?
