well, its not a cf hood, its actually a metal one. its just black cuz i took it off my old black civic coupe when i got a cf hood for it. and if you look close enough you'll even see it is the wrong one. haha, the hood is a 96-98 gen (temporary). im just waiting to buy a 99-00 to finish it off. no motor stuff yet. i'm actually going to be buying a swap here in a few weeks. christmas time is killin my wallet, so it'll be a little while. any color ideas for paint? i was gonna go ebp, but i was thinkin a copper red or somethin..

I like it. I'm a sucker for side markers. The back and sides and rims arent my taste but its yours. Interiors nice.

thanks for all the 's. yes, all the work was done by me. the car started out all shitty, broke-*** rear bumper, big *** dent in the side, nasty interior that reaked like **** from ciggarret smoke from the previous owner. the entire interior is new. there's '00 integra rear seats in there too. and i'm with everyone that hates my wheels. i dont like them at all. but they were free. i'll probly get some slips or somethin later. i agree with the looks&lt;power thing, but i had another civic that i was driving and this hatch was my hobby and i didn't ever even drive it untill i sold my coupe. but dont even worry, motor is comin in a few weeks.

ok for the last time, its PRIMER. NOT paint. ok? its not the final coat of paint, and not even close to the color its going to be. and sure, i shaved my sidemoldings, but when you have a huge dent in the side that is un-fixable without getting a whole new panel welded in, you gotta make due. no doubt i would of left the sidemoldings if i could of.
