Hey all how goes it. Oregon guy reppin' the Great Northwest. Fairly new to this site but this is definitely not my first Honda. I've had more civics than I can count, an S2000, a 2nd gen Eclipse GSX, and a dope ass 86 Ford Ranger (my first ride lol). Anyways I just picked up this 95 EX a couple months ago for a fun little project/ daily driver.

The car was owned by an older guy since 2001. Well maintained and completely stock except for some ballin ass 16's lol (literally the ugliest wheels I've seen). Body is really straight except for a couple small dings here and there. Paint is pretty oxidized though, mainly on the roof and rear quarter panels. Will be repainted by myself.

Ideas and comments are more than welcome. Thanks Everyone

Anyway here are some pictures of when I first got the car.

Cleaned the interior out decently. Smells a lot better lol. Also picked up some amber corner lights because the clear ones looked terrible lol. Still on the market for some new wheels

Lol I feel ya on that one. I seriously hate the wheels that came on my car. Only good thing about them is they came wrapped in some brand new pirellis.

I actually found a different set of wheels that I'm most likely gonna pick up.

Yeah, not everyone likes the whole black wheel with red lip thing, but I honestly love the look of those. I just don't have money haha.
