Hobo's 2000 LX daily driver
the paper lettering is a crafty idea, looks cool. I like the tail lights too, big improvement from stock. sucks about the clear coat gash though. i bet if you used some high grit wet sand paper and ordered some color matched paint/clearcoat, you could do it yourself for much less. I just painted my spoiler, and got color matched paint from http://www.automotivetouchup.com/spray_paint.asp
The match was perfect, and cheapest i could find online. shipping is slow though. mine was yr525m-4, there is another yr525m with diff number at end, not sure what yours is.
Looks pretty sweet so far, good luck, I know how it is on a college budget.

Alright. I've ordered another $100 in paint supplies. 3 cans of YR-525M, 2 cans of clear, and 1 can of adhesion promoter. If I need more, Autozone is just down the street. I still have about 1/8th of a can of YR-525M and a half a can of clear from the other painting adventure. This should give me enough to complete the exterior paint!
Well guys, the car now sends out a puff of blue smoke every time I start the car. (Well, after it sits for 8 hours or so.) So... damn. An engine might have just been bumped higher on the list than I thought.
Fog lights are back up! There were 2 problems.
1: the wire coming off the plug on the fuse box had come off the plug.
2: the fuse on the power wire from the fuse box had melted. Looks like it might have even boiled from heat. The fuse itself was still good. Well, good in the sense that it hadn't blown. But it was deformed and trash. I'll monitor the new one to see what happens.
