Wrinkle paint on that would look nice!

I painted mine...

Yup, painting them definitely works. I did that to the timing covers on my old A6:

I think I'm going to re-install the top cover once they are painted too. I like the cutout for the cam gear, but I'm still rockin a stock cam gear, so it would look funny.

Here is my CRX before I got rid of it. Just missing the intake and header in this picture. I wish I had better pictures of it.

I know how you feel. I've been talking about doing an h2b swap for 4 years now.

Spring break is March 19th!! Finally have the money to do it.

REALLY stupid question. I hate to ask, but here goes.

I tucked my harness and all that jive, and have many connectors that are no longer used.

Can I cut wires with connectors that aren't being used? They are taking up a ton of room under the dash.

i.e. - A/C, Cruise, Power Steering, Washer fluid etc.

I just don't want to cut them (just to save space) and have something short, dummy light come on.

Cut them, cap them off, and label them to save the next owner the headache of trying to figure out where they go

Thanks man. Hasn't been my daily for the last couple years though. Finally took it off daily status after 5 years of duty haha.


I'm finally painting my firewall, installing a Rywire clutch line and cleaning up the prop valve and brake lines. What do you guys think for the brakelines- Should I paint them Flat black, gloss black, silver, or gunmetal? I'm leaning toward gloss black just because it will be easier to keep them clean than flat black.

it's not a real mugen vc. they made VERY few and haven't made them since way back in early 90s, if not 90s. good luck finding a legit one and good luck affording it. further more, they look NOTHING like that one ^^
