Default Re: Re: (mekanism)

are you gonna paint the fenders forward as well? From the pics it looks like you overlapped the fender by about 6 inches and its a noticable color shift...at least in the picture. Will color sanding blend that better? NOT trying to be a hater, just curiuos. I painted my own car in my garage too but it was my one and only attempt.



looks better in pictures but turned out fine

Not to interrupt the the paint discussion but I had a quick question (and I've been searching for a while now too). Question is: When swapping a B18A into an 88-91 Civic/CRX does the LS exhaust manifold meet the catalytic converter the same way as the Si manifold (meaning it'll just bolt up as is with no required cutting of the exhaust piping to lengthen or shorten to make everything fit)?

I think anything other than a D series would require modifications.

/\ Sweet action. The 4x114 doesn't require machining, right? How hard was that conversion?

my b16 manifold bolted directly to the cat, but I think I had to rotate the cat 180 deg.

I dig the color, what is it? Is that your emblem bleeding through on the hood or just the light?
