Well, Here you all go H-T, Will hopefully have the car ready for paint next month sometime, I still got to pull the motor and shave the whole engine bay, and do a few more things here and there. sorry for some of the crap quality pics. Enjoy

What my car originally looked like



Where it all happens, My House


Conversion all fitting good


Showing off the pair of illuminated plates, one for everyday, the other for back at the shows


Painted them amber corners myself, not bad, brand new bumper pole


Chargespeed wing, JDM bumper, lip, upper filler piece, Mugen exhaust, I haven't cut the holes yet for the rear fogs




Interior, yeah its a mess, car was Maroon when I got it, got the Safety 21 cage installed



Engine Bay, got the Mugen Intake all fitted, will post more info later on how to make it fit. Tein Hood Shocks Using Original Mounts, I love being a machinist.




This is how I mounted the Chargespeed Lip, custom Stainless Brackets fiberglassed into lip.

Well, I am still thinking about removing them, I have Mint JDM Tails with Vtec center garnish behind them, once I get the car done I will decide, I mostly like them because its different, something you don't see very often.

I don't know why I used that stupid comment, it did help a lot at the last show I went to, about a year ago, the Judges couldn't believe them. But I think I am going to move on and ditch them, I've used them for about 2 years, yeah the rear is starting to get to much crap, so after paint and a few photos with and without them, I will decide, most of the stickers you all see will be gone for good, only large decal on the outside will be the DOHC VTEC decals on the doors. It will be very clean, and I am staying Black, with a grey pinstripe down the middle of the side molding and bumpers.

Because its a 92-95 Civic Ferio 4 door exhaust, I got a good deal on it, and really wanted to scrap the loud Invidia I had. It sticks out a few extra inches, but its not bad.
