I, personally, don't care for the red on red with the wheels nor for the bumper.
Had I been doing this build, I would have painted the wheels black and the front bumper red, but hey, it's not me doing it and you're doing a great job! Nice build.

thanks man, as for the bumper i will be giving the car an entire fresh coat of milano red, so it will be painted, the wheels eventually will be changed, i had my eyes on some black xxr 522 but these i got off a trade so its good for now but eventually im doing a 5 lug conversion and will be looking to get some other rims

You didnt have the DOHC V-Tec sanded down yet its makes a difference. All yellow makes it look cheap I find. Seeing the letters makes it stand out

5 lug conversion here we go.......

for those of you who are against 5 lug conversions, its my build, so i dont care.....in my head this is the way i see my car looking better.
i plan on getting smaller tires and powder coating the rims white, they'll be my back-up rims later on but theyre good for now

i used engine degreaser to clean up the block then i went at it with a wire wheel and then power washed it with hot water and soap to clean it all up, then i used VHT hi-temp engine paint first aluminum base then the gold paint
