eh. not feeling it.

a drop might make it look better

 

Thanks for the feedback. My friend has actually been on my back, tryin' to convince me to drop it a bit haha.

 

not feeling at all.

 

drop it and it will look better

 

Drop is a must, '03 taillights, '03 headlights, ditch the roadlamps, and it would look set, as long as YOU like it, thats all that matters.

Keep doing what you doing!

 

Thanks for all the feedback. I will definitely consider dropping it hmm...

And thank you, safyulhaqq! I appreciate the good support.

 

I actually kinda like it

 

I really like it!

Get a color matched '03 grill, '03 tail lights, drop, and your set

 

What part of Northern Cali?

 

@Nersh7, I'm glad you like it!

@Jacobpockros, thanks again! I will definitely look into those changes, see if it suits me.

@nf3d0149ab, I'm in Sacramento.

 

Nice. Have you connected with the other Sac Aziners yet?

 

Agreed. Personally I like white on white, just not with stock wheels. It has to be done right.

Oh, and a drop is necessary for sure!

 

drop would make it work

 

White face wheels 18+ with a polished lip would look nice.
O yea,some drop.
Get low bus

 

Im on the fence as it is now. But a drop, some red "A" logo centercaps would give it a pseudo Type R feel, even tho it kinda doesn't apply.

 

Needs a drop, other than that i like it.

 

i like it. definitely needs a drop and the '03 head and tail lights

 

Its not what I would do, but its not bad. It does need a drop, but then again so does mine.

Very clean ride!

 

Hey guys,

I just wanted to thank all of you again for the feedback.

I never really got to doing the drop heh, but I guess it's too late for that now.

I got into an accident the other day, and it's looking like it's not going to be worth fixing up. I am okay though (for those of you wondering). I was turning after my light turned green, and right as I entered the middle of the intersection, a lady, who witnesses say was fixing her makeup, ran the red and rammed directly into me.

I guess I won't be on here too much anymore, but it was really cool seeing everyone's different CL's!

Taken with a low-quality Blackberry camera phone.

 

Fuck man. Sorry to hear about that. Glad your ok though. I really liked this car too

 

sorry to hear about wat happen but r u trying to sell the wheels? wat part of nor cal do u stay?

 

wow dude. looks just like my accident, but not as bad. get the insurance money and buy a 6 speed!

 

Hey jacobpcokros, I really appreciate your concern. I know you were the first person on here that really like this car as much as I did haha.

You unsympathetic piece of....

Just kidding. I'll definitely let you know if I buy the car back from insurance so I can sell the parts. I'm in Sacramento too, so I'll send you a PM to keep you updated.

Yeah, that's what I'm hoping!

 

If you get a 6-speed, save these wheels :P

 

ok let me kno wassup. was there frame damage? i got into an accident in May wit my old CL and i bought the car back from the insurance for 700. My accident kinda looked like yours but my whole drive side was gone and sum how the transmission cover broke off too.

 

glad you weren't hurt. i shed a tear everytime a white CL goes down

 

Sorry to hear about the bad luck w/the accident, glad to hear you're ok. Maybe if you don't part it out someone can fix it and give it a chance at another life like I did to my beater

 

Haha most definitely. I think you guys will have to fight for them lol.

I'm pretty sure there was some frame damage to it. My buddy went to the yard and checked it out, and said the damage was really serious.

Me too I'm just lucky I wasn't hurt though. I appreciate your concern!

I'm hoping for the best man. And if we can't fix it, which would be sad, I would definitely buy it back just to sell parts and stuff.

 

Hey guys it's been a month since the accident.

The accident was deemed a total loss. There was frame damage, a lot of body work to be done, new paint needed... Seeing that the car was already a salvage title, I decided to contact some of my buddies and get it fixed up.

It cost about 4grand to do everything, and I'm happier with repairing this than getting a different car to be honest. I'm familiar with this one, and it still has less than 70k miles on it!

We pulled out the frame, had it fixed, did some body work, alignment, repainted one side, replaced tie rods, brake sensor, a lot of stuff... but as of now the car looks like it was never in an accident. The paint is perfect, still some chips here and there, but I have a can of paint and I'll do some touch ups when the weather is warmer. Everything looks GOOD!

The wheels are not as clean as they used to be due to some daily driving damage (scratches here and there), and the wheel in the pictured accident has blue paint marks and dents all over it.... so when I get some spare money I'll be powder coating them again if I can find a place that will do them for a good deal.

 

So this was the second time the car has been totaled? Post up some pictures though. Glad to see it will live again! I'm sure it will look nice since white paint all looks the same anyway lol.

 

Good to hear you kept her and fixed her up, nice work

 

Unfortunately yes, but it's running well. And yeah the paint looks good lol.

Thanks!

Also, I need some help in the fix-up forum. Need advice ASAP!
