The Type-R clip didn't come with any usable interior parts.

It's definately kiiling me hardcore. I've been driving with a two-tone car for about a month now while I sourced a rear bumper which took a long time. I drove to Va and picked it up.

It's getting painted Sunlight Silver Metallic (22v) which is off of the 06 RX-8/Miata MX5. I saw a miata at a car show (New car) under lights and it glistend so freaking awsome. Now I will be carless for about a month but itll be worth it.
