Default Update : Hello from Albuquerque w/ Pics

well, i was sent here by a member from a different forum, and figured i'd register and say hello, so hello.

A little about myself...i've been around cars my whole life. had a couple toyota trucks (1986 4Runner, 1986 Pickup), done the whole fullsize truck thing (2005 Sierra), and here i am now with a 2000 Civic EX Sedan (EJ8). I own a small local automotive electronics shop, car audio/video/nav/security...the works. i've been an installer for over a decade. if you need anything, drop me a PM and i'll see what i can do.

Plans for the civic include new paint, suspension work, wheels & tires, basic engine work, and redo the full audio system. pretty simple. As you can see, it's been subject to the AZ heat and sun since it was new in 2000, and never garaged. also...from the pics you can see some trouble areas in the corners, but as soon as i get some time, the bumpers are coming off for paint and remounting to fix the hanging issues.

Welcome. We have a pretty good population of EK Civics, same generation as yours.

Also, post pics of your ride. We live vicariously through the projects of others, heh.
