> [@StupidHurts](#): > > Everyone knows hondas don’t rust on the underside It’s funny but true. I’ve seen and had hondas with shitty bodies that were awesome underneith. I really like these and this one is super nice but I doubt I’m ever going back to FWD. ---

I will get some up tomorrow morning for you This one really is clean, the paint is in good shape but im not going to lie the body has alot of dents in it. prob 3-4 on each door and rear quarters. Front and back bumpers have scuffs on them, and a few spider cracks in the paint. i just dont want anyone to be suprised if they come look at it. This car will walk a gsr integra, only by a little but it wins.
