Default New EH

Just got a 94 DX hatch a couple of months ago. The exterior and interior was really rough, but the engine was rebuilt and it drives like a new car! I am in the process of restoring the hatch to it's glory days, and would like to use all OEM Honda Accessories. Here is what I have done so far:
Interior upgrades:
Double Din optional audio console with OEM Equalizer
Armrest (New from Honda)
New OEM Floor Mats
Rear Speaker kit and grills (Got black grills, would prefer gray)
OEM Honda 3000 radio (Works great)
Bazooka bass tube
New OEM shift **** (Other one was pretty beat up)
Alarm
Current View
Current View, but changed out black armrest for gray one.


Original Interior - Front
Original Interior - RearExterior:
I had the car painted with OEM Harvard Blue paint
repainted all the moldings and door mirrors with Rustoleum Trim paint
got new door/ window moldings
new roof moldings
replaced damage fender
Lowered car on coilovers
Integra GSR rims (Fat Fives)
Clear corner lenses
New antenna
new Civic DX sticker logo for rear
OEM muffler tailpipe cover
Added rear Honda emblem
New OEM Hood Bra
New OEM mud guard set
Door edge guards (not OEM)
New rear wiper attachment
added license plate frames
Fog Lights (Not installed yet)
front bumper spoiler (not installed yet)




After Paint


With Hood Bra
Well, not sure what else to do to the car. It is pretty much complete with OEM accessories. Any ideas?

Pretty soon you'll be looking for months just to find that one part you can't live without. Welcome to the obsession lol.

Paint would be a a good idea. Same color of course. Itd do the car wonders

either way, good start.

I love Harvard Blue Pearl. Looks great!

Front lip, pronto!!!

Double check the rear bumper, and see if they painted it all the way down, or left the correct unpainted black strip at the bottom. If they painted the whole rear bumper I'd mask off the bumper and rest of the car, and shoot that lower strip with trim paint to get the OEM look.

If you look carefully here:




...you can see the unpainted black strip on the rear bumper.
