sohc arent as valued as gs as far as what ive seen. Ive seen some in worse condition for around 2000. If the engine is in tip top condition and has less than 100k miles (on engine) i say around 2000. Now consider that being in el paso market.. in other places ive noticed that mx3s are valued higher. ive seen some sell for 4000 in mint condition. I say 2000 is a fair price. To bad im poor :P as consumers we are always looking for the lowest price.

Then you'll probably pay as much in parts as the value of your car goes up, therefore making no profit. Why are you interested in selling it? I thought you just had it painted?

thanx man..i appreciate the compliment...umm the rear lip is actually a front lip off of a 93 accord n the sideskirts are off a 94-94 accord...the rear lip i had to make smaller so i cut a spot out for my exhaust..n then used small screws to hold it on..the sides u have to cut the length down n theres a piece that goes under the accord to attach n its wider than it needs to be so u have to cut that down a little bit...all the cutting on the sideskirts probly took me 20 mins....n attatching everything took me bout 2 hours cus u have to drill pilot holes n i used small screw for that also...

check it, i took your idea (hope thats alright) and put it onto my gs, i molded it to the front mud flaps (sorta, i used silicon, but it turned out great) heres what it looked like after i painted it black:

thanks for the idea, im not going to do the rear lip tho. Oh, and my car is on jacks because what you see is the reminance of my ATX to MTX swap. figured i would do it when i still had room to play.
