Default My Project Log (56k warning) + Tips on removing interior

As the year is coming to an end so its time to post pics.











To keep this tech related I have some ?'s.
If you look on the floor you notice the metal and somthing thats over it (darker red). But I thought tar was over the metal in some areas and I didnt see any (isn't it supposed to be black?). Unless it was painted over then im a retard lol

The process of getting it stripped took me about 5 hours(1 person). It wasn't that it was hard, it was that I was getting stuck trying to remove things and would move onto somthing only to realize that I needed to first remove what I was working on in the begining. The hardest part was the rear seat removal becuase its so simple you think its impossible. Also I tried to remove the carpet w/o removing the center console but that was a bad idea and ended up wasting alot of time.

After striping it the dirt that acumulated inside was rediculous. I litterally had about a 1/2 inch of crap every where. I found that using a bucket filled w/ simple green and water, a scrubber and a towl to dry it with works wonders.

Coming soon: Milano Red Si

This sucks. My mom just called me and informed me that I can't and go and see my car. Since this a part of my Christmas I can't see it untill Christmas. She told me that they just finished putting the primer on.
I just got worst feeling ever after this:
Mom "Would it be ok if I add some Motherly touches"
Me "Like what"
Mom "Like Altezas(sp)"
Me "___________"
Mom "Ahahahah"

Now Im scared lol

I still don't understand why people strip their interiors...
Carpet, Fabric & Foam doesn't weigh much... all it does is make for a noisy ride.

You wouldn't belive how much louder it was. It was incredible. For any one who wants to know what I would be like its similar to being inside the engine bay while driving.

I got bad news to
Just coming home tonight I got into an accident on the freeway with my moms/dad's civic. So the money I had saved up on new headlights / taillights / transmission is gone.
One of the only things that kept me stable on the drive home was my friend calling me to ask me to see if I could convice them to get a jdm front end. I post pics and a story.
If anyone has the following for sale in so.cal PM ME!!!!
Hood / Grill Peice / Bumper
