I have no desire to put fogs on this coupe. I had them on my last as well as side markers... and just not my thing anymore. Every coupe around here has the same 'jdm' parts on it, and I dont want to look like theirs! But thanks for the compliment though

Bump for a sick coupe, like I've said many times! And for someone who rides, like me!

Thanks! I have been spending a lot of time doing small stuff here and there... Buffed/waxed it over the weekend with the help of Kevin (b16b_coupe) and it came out amazing! Working on a few 'new' things right now. I will post updates when they are done

As for riding, yeah! Weather has been real nice! Kevin took this picture last week riding the outdoor concrete park.



edit: I failed at linking!

Always changing colors on something aren't ya :p Didn't you just do the cage that metallic black yo? That was sick, but this is looking good too. By the way I hate you for your invert skills :p (Nice shot Kevin.) The other pics on that page above were dope too. My favorite was the rolling shot and sinister looking fence shot.

i rarely comment on build threads but i really like your car....very clean and seems like you are doing things in the right order...

the only thing im not really feeling is that cage...even though weld in is better than a bolt in. those s&w roll bars seem designed for drag racing(seems like your car has a little bit more of a road racing focus)...the rear supports should go back to the strut towers(similar to the autopower desgin)....overall im sure it will still be hella safe but i would have left the autopower and focused on something else

props on a nice ej though!

Thanks for the compliments As far as the roll bar, it is pretty much to each his own as you can custom install the s&w roll bars. It is mounted right above the rear frame rails, and I also had a strut brace welded in, so I feel this design is just as good, if not better than the autopower style.
