Default new ride

so i picked up a new civic 92 si 233k KM
i got it from my local insurance company auction for $1600 cdn with minor front end damage
the interior is really clean, dr side door sags a little (ill replace hinges from the old on) tail gate glass shocks need to be replaced (also get from old one)
there is a little rust all over and one bigger spot on the dr 1/4 panel, theres is some tears in the rear lca bushing (ill take some pics and ask you guys for an opinion soon)

Nice work. I'd say paint it all blue and leave the lip black. That's a nice color too.
