Finally got them on - Sidemarkers
 "Aw SNAP...Its  y0!"Shouldve seen my gangsta setup for leveling things. Held the fenders to the wall w/ nails, painters tape everywhere, sharpie lines, big huge magnets......shouldve taken a pic or two. The driver's side turned out better than the other. I'll have to get some black caulk to help fill it in better and to seal off the rust. I have to say that all the diagrams I found, none of them were great. The one that I used was the best but it was still piss poor (fit well on paper though) and was too short but also too tall (hence the fit - did passenger 1st) |

HA that made me laugh Quote:
Those are 14" pos ass prime wheels that came on the car when I bought it...and still havent gotten rubber for the rotas yet (been forever too). Theyre round so they work ok...but all the paint is chipping off them....and theyre HEAVY Quote:
No doubt....no doubt HOPEFULLY I can do that next week. Ive already hit up the shop and got a price for the job ($350 w/ lifetime warranty) - Just the bumper and other fender. I played w/ some paintscratch.com paint on the other fender (the dead one) and it turned out like ass...I suck at painting. So...shop time indeed. I will, however, paint the mirrors myself w/ what remains of the paintscratch.com paint (can you believe I havent done that yet either??) |

Well, the dude who installed it over cut the wholes. No wholes are showing but the thing is not mounted sturdy enough for me. I might still keep it if the body shop can make it tight.... not sure yet really.... |

Re: Finally got them on - Sidemarkers

they look ok to me.. but i think that the lack of orange in the front turn signal and the super strong orange in the side marker looks bad.... i saw clear oem s2000 ones on HAN... i think they would flow much better with your setup... |

I bought them from some guy on h-t...i forget the name now.
there really isnt a whole lot of a how to, to it. just align, drill, nibble a box out. Quote:
I know what youre sayin. But Im stickin w/ the whole ek thing. Afterall, they look this way everywhere else too. Where it an sir (yes, it would be a hatch then...look past it) it would have the same headlights, red and clear tails and orange sidemarkers, same as mine. Plus I think clear markers are too euro-trashy for me  |

Actually the only thing i don't like about your car pat is the foglights, just too square for my tastes, but

yeah I have never seen any place that carried the 96-98s in yellow...ever. I think it may just be a myth. The true jdm ones are ion lens anyway.
Im sure youve seen people's painted ones. They look pretty decent, but I wonder how long it holds up. |

well...you could always ask the guy on h-t thats had it for several months now. I believe he added several clear coats so that would help maintain it from the outside. ...but The I bet it dissolves from the inside out, from the heat pretty quickly.
I have also seen yellow tinted covers (like glassgard) that have been cut to fit on 99 fogs. Those would last for sure. If you can find the site that sells the tinted kind in sheets, Id go with that. |

hmm i dont think the differance is any more than 20 ft lbs in the most EXTREME case... and on average anywhere around 5-10 which is not enough to do flips over... the amount of torque i picked up by adding a bottle BLOWS AWAY the amount i would have picked up doing a swap.. |
