Please excuse the lack of pictures. i bought this car in 2007 and then left for Okinawa a few months later. Now reunited and it feels so good. After moving from the lonestar state of Texas to always sunny Southern California, i have enough down time and want to upgrade my Eggy.

The reason for Eggy as a name is because of, well, the fact that it looks like an egg. My buddy in Texas called her that and now it's stuck.

For the time being i'll be taking random pictures along the way of our adventures in California and also adding pictures/ideas for upgrades. Feel free to comment and i would also would appreciate some references on good shops around the Southern California area.

I love the white EP3. I wish mine was white but silver was the only color i could find around here. Can't wait to see where this thing goes!

glad you found a bc shifter. if you're gonna install it yourself, do yourself a favor and loosen the center console( the one with the radio) and lift it up while removing the OEM shifter. I found that out after 15-30 min of dicking around.

I thought the shifter was already short, I wonder how it would look like to even get a "shorter shifter". Sorry noob here lol
