Default few pics of my next project- 97 hx

well after i got insurance money from my old civic, i went out and picked up this ek. it has a 2000 si front end, evo exhaust and some other nice goodies that ill be putting on/in soon. i already put some teg seats in it and working on a momo wheel. suspension is almost fully done. i switched over to the 99-00 tails, cause they look better imo. future cosmetics are to get the small scratches and whatnot repainted, and to either get the hood fixed or get a cf hood. current hood has a nice lump in it due to errant spark plug from below. lmk what you guys and gals think

thanks for the replies! what would you guys suggest for the grill if not painted? black?

the hx is not as bad as a motor as i previously thought. its currently got an intake and exhaust, ex tranny, and somewhere around 197,000 miles . compression is 190+ and it runs smooth as hell. with the same tranny and equal work, its just as fast as my old ex was
