Hey guys,

Well I saw snow fall today and I realized its time to winter prep my car. Now there's a few things I need to do:

Rust:
There's some rust in my rear wheel drive where it rusted before (but was supposedly fixed). Its not big, like half a size of my fingernail but I wanna get rid of it before it grows any bigger.

Scratches:
People have told me that it's not down to the metal but I'm just paranoid. It's on my trunk and my roof and I wanna seal it up so I can be certain that it won't rust over winter.

Rustproof:
Gotta spray my car and protect it heh.

Now I don't know whether or not to just leave everything as it is and save up over the winter and get a new paint job with a body kit when the snow melts or should I get rid of all the bad stuff now (which will kill cash which I need to get the body kit probably) and than wet sand the car which'll cost less than a new paint job.

So the question is, what do you guys think I should do? And do you know any places where I can get it done?

BTW I'm joining TCC real soon as soon as I find some cash

spend the cash and have it fixed nice and looking clean. Kits are a waste of cash. I like the clean JDM look. Lip kits are ok with me, but none of that blackwidow and streetfighter crap.

Take it to krown and they'll take care of your car for rustproofing

Speaking of rust proofing, people recommend doing it every year before winter. I have had my car rust proofed by Honda before I bought it new 6 years ago and never had it sprayed with that oil thing ever again. Do you think I should do that every year or is Honda's initial rust proofing sufficient?

Wow, no one can give me any input on this? C'mon guys!

i would rust proof the car now.second..if they are gonan replace the rocker pannel, they are gona cut it out ,so if you fix it now or later ,it won;t matter.drive the car for the winter, and wash it often.......when winter is done, take the money you have adn buy a mugen front, sides are rear....replica...something clean.go to a body shop and ask to have your car wet sanded, and the rust fixed adn the kit put on...then enjoy
