My maroon wagon "Bonita"

New Member

Sup fellas. New wagon owner here. Coming to you guys from the bottom of the map, down here in Houston Texas. I acquired my 95' wagon from a friend of mine who was a corolla fanatic. I found out through a local forum that he was getting ready to move on and get rid of the wagon. Before he could even post the car I texted him and told him to give me a few days and I would buy the car from him. I then posted my 2003 accord coupe daily for sale, sold it and worked up a deal to take home the wagon. I had been searching for a wagon for a while and this just do happened to all work out for the best.

As the car sits:

I'm trying to stick with the "era" appropriate styling for this car. I'm not calling my self old lol but I grew up around cars and going to races and shows since around 94'. During the time when lowering your cars and nice wheels and a few cool little mods/add ons were just right. "1990's inspired" future plans are clear tail lights, clear corner lights, retro fitting a new wing on it, and a few goodies that my cousins from the Philippines are sourcing me and possibly paint, and bags Wink

Ordered my visors, and installed my dummy antenna lol.

Here are a few of my old cars in no particular order:

Wow the wagon looks very clean and I like how it sits. If your previous builds are any indication of what's to come this will def be an interesting and very clean car. Keep us posted

Site Administrator

um wow you've had a lot of cars haha! The wagon looks good now, nice job so far. I'll be interested to see what your idea of "era appropriate styling" is

New Member

Haha, just wanna keep it real 90's
Clear tails and corners
Grounding static strip off the rear bumper.
Just added my sun shades.
Seat bead covers.
Added my faux euro antenna lol
Maybe a Momo course steering wheel ?
Some Toyota seat belt pads.

Petty much the tacky stuff a lotta ppl don't like anymore haha
But thanks for the kind words.

Ah I see lol. I assume the car came with the mods it has now?

Elite Member

well it'll def be different. i think its sittin pretty the way it is now, but to each ones own. looking forward to see how everything will progress.

New Member

Thanks guys. And yes it came with the coils, wheels, n lip.
My homie was in need of something with more room and opted to go for a possible luxury car or SUV.
So he worked out a deal for me to just take it as it was, it helped me out because everything he added was pretty much taken care of for me. Now just to add small stuff and paint haha

Site Administrator

So are you planning on removing the coils and wheels in favor of something more "90s"?

New Member

Haha nah keeping the coils. I was referring to more of the styling in reference to my choice of little add ons. That's pretty much it. I apologize if I've deceived you into thinking I was gonna throw on a kit and a bunch of tacky graphics and 18" enkei's lol I'm just try a find old parts that's are discontinued that a lot of people used to put on heir cars a while back. Seat belt pads, clear tails,side marker lights,static grounding strip, a hood bra, clear corners, fuba antenna(which I got) haha. It makes it fun when your trying to source out old parts that were pretty common during like 1994-1999.

That's all lol here's an old photo from 1997: notice the antenna lol side markers, clear corners, shaved handles loll

New Member

On a random side not just in case anyone was wondering lol all the cars posted were mine and purchased pretty stock. This car is the exception with the coils wheels and lip.

Site Administrator

Yeah, coils and wheels and maybe a lip are the bare minimum for a car lol. Yeah your wheel fitment is definitely not 90s, so I was worried you might revert lol

New Member

Haha nah definitely not. On a side note, I ordered some visors only to be mistaken for buying them for the 4 door haha not the wagon. So as of now I've only got the front on.

Site Administrator

Hmmm pics are really grainy and lacking contrast.... on purpose?

New Member

Yeah it was on purpose. It's all good though. I'll remove the grain/noise

Did you change something, they look the same lol

When I edit my own pics, I like to try different styles, rather than the same filter applied to each pic.

New Member
