Hi everyone,

I posted a thread in the noob forum before but this time I actually a Honda!

I live in Sydney and picked up a really clean 2002 stock EP3 tonight that was completely stock and just under 60000kms :D

I would love to know when there is a meet for EP3 owners in Sydney next, would like to meet people and get to know the scene and learn :wave:

Edit: stock except for the replica mugen grill which I will replace with the stock grill asap!

I decided I didn't like the mugen replica grill so spent last night taking it off using a heat gun and elbow grease. Was a pain taking off the front bumper for the first time with little light @ midnight... I was told by the seller it was going to only be a 5min job. If I new it would take me 2 hours, I wouldn't have started at 10.30pm lol.

The results were satisfying however.

i dont think i have any of the bottoms ones in on my car, since the facelift bumper on my s2k doesnt match the underguards. just used cable ties

Just got my wheel alignment done today, 70 bux they were really helpful. I asked if any bushes needed changing only thing I was recommended was the control arm bushes 200-300 bux. But will hold off for now cause everything feels good still.

Update 13/09/2014

I decided to give it a good machine cut and polish today, took around 4.5 hours and my back is killing me but it was worth it! Got rid of most the swirls, if any member is interested to know what products or how to PM me.
