New pics added. Lots of work in progress. Picked up some CTR mirrors, power doors, new weather stripping, new bumpers and hood. Waiting to get it all painted.

Re: My EK project.. (story)
More pics added. Just got my hood, fenders and bumpers painted. Test fitting them right now. Won't bolt them on totally until my grill is done. Going to paint that along with mirrors, side moldings, door handles, side skirs, front lip and rear lip.
I had to buy a new rear windshield from honda. Cost me $290 bucks I can totally see how money adds up into these things so quick. I totally should have bought DUT's CTR when I had the chance. haha. Love having a project though.

I love the build chase, looking great. Need a hand, just hit me up. Brandon always tells me he goes over to work on the car but he never invites me

Okay.. got the rest of my trim pieces painted and on. Just need to finish up a few interior things and bolt the wing on. Ended up getting some HX wheels for now. Found a guy who was able to powdercoat them. They turned out awesome. Almost an exact match to champ white. So stoked. Waiting on tires right now for them.
This thing should be "done" or at least drivable within the next week!

Nice work, you should go for white rims to.
A friend of mine also has a white facelift hatch and he just bought my Regamasters because I also run CP's now. White on white is a badass combo.

Re: My EK project.. (story)
word.. I really want to get white CP-R's. The HX wheels just got powdercoated champ white but they will be temporary. 14's just aren't going to be enough

Re: My EK project.. (story)
Well.. It's finally drivable again. I still have a few things I would like to do on the interior. I got civic coupe carpet thinking it would work and found out that it "works" but isn't the same as hatch carpet. So I'll be on the lookout for civic hatch carpet. I also have to get the door lock switch and re-charge my AC. But other than that I'll be happy for a while. I will continue to modify here and there. I have a full disc brake setup for it and am saving up to get front and rear Recaro's (should be soon). Anyway, so stoked to finally have the EK hatch that I've always wanted. Here are some pics.
