Stupid question: Are the nuts visible in your engine bay painted or something? Looks like a yellow ring around all your fasteners. Just curious.
And no one take that the wrong way

They have brass washers and new bolts on every single 10mm headed bolt. I'm in the process of replacing every fastener with new ones also. I did paint my UCA nuts and strut nuts and studs flat black though as they were rusted.

It's not tucked, but the paint under there looks pretty clean for being an old car.

Yes, you have to extend the headlight harnesses to make them fit inside the fenders. I did not extend anything else, just hid them.

Don't be afraid. It's really not hard at all, and takes patience. I haven't removed my battery yet, but plan to in the very near future. ABS I'm still debating on moving.

Re: (1995civicEJ)
if you mean the torque mount then yes, you could remove it, you might get more vibration at idle or cruising and some jerky-ness when you shift though.

If you plan on upgrading to aftermarket poly mounts like Hasport, Innovative, etc...that should be fine.
But with stock upper mounts...I wouldn't recommend removing the lower torque mounts.
