First off, nice start with a great platform, second if you like the raked look just go 2.5 or 3 in the back if you have 3.5 in the front, still I think it looks good so far, keep it up!

Rear bumper looks like a differant color than rear 1/4 pannel
rear 1/4 looks differant than fender and door.


And it looks like the hood/fender gaps aren't perfect either.


These reasons are probably why you got such a good deal...


Looks good otherwise.

cmon man, seriously? this is a car, not a woman lol
it is 2011, and 1999 was sooo long ago id expected
some imperfections on this. i mean i practically stole this
car for the price i got it for. seller started up at 3500's around there
which is clearly in bluebook range, then i got him down to 3000 flat! and then
to 2700! i just did a really good thorough search of the car with a buddy of mine
and kinda made the guy nervous like if i was going to be the highest bidder
haha i do feel bad because i kinda took advantage of him (it was an older gentleman, probably early 50s?)
but hey, his loss and my gain! so im happy, and im sure hes happy too..
cmon thats just good bargaining skills bro ;)
btw, paint doesnt match because the guy says he
tried painting some fading spots, but its hardly noticable!
imo he did a great job, except for matching the paint correctly lol
hood/fender fits just perfect, looks great to me :D
this car is a gem, my diamond in the rough, i wouldnt
trade it now for any freaking car in the world! this is my project
and i am proud of whatever comes out of it...dont sweat me
this car will be amazing soon enough, and will be impenetrable to any more "negative" comments..trust me

again, thanks for viewing and actually commenting guys, i really
do appreciate it and always look forward to ppl's opinions..

Thought u saiid the paint was good?

Colors don't seem to match from the door to rear quarters..

Back end needs lower, but all in all not a bad looking coupe

2700 seems a bit high for a car that's paint doesn't match all the way around.

It might not bother you, but it's bother the hell out of me.

I just bought a mazdaspeed3- 2008 with 32k miles. I walked out of dealer paying 3800$ less than t was advertised for. THAT is a steal =)

You got a really good attitude man props. I love my car to death, I was almost in a head on collision on the highway with her and ended up doing a 540 at 60 mph, and not a single thing happened to the car which is unbeleiveable. I love my 99 EJ8, and I would only trade her for a CRZ haha.
