84916, Body is going back to stock...
Posted by Shockeclipse, May-10-05 12:10 PM
So I am completely and uterly fed up with my body kit and I fell back in love with the stock body. So, I have been doing searches here and there for the 97-99 front, rear, and sideskirts, but I haven't really come up with anything. Even in the for sale forum it seems that all I see is the smileys for sale. Does anyone know where I can locate these parts for a decent dollar? I'm sorta on a budget here because I started looking for a house to buy and The car is getting boosted soon, so help a brutha out!

Best of luck dude. Makes me happy when people go back to the stock body style (besides the fat ass.. but I still love her) and realize that we were blessed with a beautiful body from the factory unlike nasty civics and such. And are you going to keep the same color? I bet the car would look nice as hell stock bodied with that blue

I am kinda in between as to whether or not the color will be staying or not. I was thinking about going green actually but I have been unable to find the color that is in my head...but with money being somewhat limited I am probably going to respray the whole care the same blue or a similiar blue. My friend took my car to prom this weekend and he waxed her up for me real nice before he went...seeing it clean after a long time kinda makes me want to keep the blue.

You should be able to get a brand new front end from a body shop for like $250, maybe similar for the rear... ? ... I dunno, I bought my front from a body shop, but insurance paid for it, so I didn't care how expensive it was.

Good job on going to the stock body!! Can't wait to see the car re-done.
