Default What you guys think of my 89 Si

Just wanted opinions on what you guys think of my car and if its worthy of any thumb ups, LOL

Here's the mods so far:
-SOHC ZC with C.A.I.
-2 1/4" Exhaust cat-back
-'94 GSR rear disc conversion
-Tein SS Coilovers
-Front & Rear Upper Strut bars
-Front & Rear lower Tie bars
-Limited Edition centre console (Rob. Knows what its from)
-RSX Type S shift ****
-90, 91 Mint Si seats
-Momo wheel
-Clear corners
-GSR Blades, New EL wheels (looks like SiR's but polished), SiR



Tomorrow or during the week im gonna strip, sand and spray my SiR wheels with Dupli-Color Gunmetal and im gonna go out and buy some brand new 50 profile rubber for them. The wheels are gonna look like these ones

I dont get it. I cant find a 88-89 Si to save my soul. I been looking for the past 6 months and nothing but piece of ***** have been sale. Ones that kids have either crashed or ruined with a body kit. I am looking for a 89 Si but I am yet to find one. I dont understand where you guys are getting your cars but lucky you. yes your car is worthy. In my opinion you have the best year you can get. ( resembles the JDM ef9's ).

I paid $1700 CDN for the car with everything except the
-Tein SS Coilovers
-the RSX Shiftknob
-the blades, SiR's and EL's,
-90-91 Si interior
-Clear corners

The older Acura EL Spoked wheels came with the car with some 60 profile 30% rubber that was left. I sold those Wheels/Tires for $375 so I basically I bought the car for $1325 CDN.

Ohh yeah I forgot, i also bought a 89 Si Front bumper and resprayed the molding and lip with Dupli-Color bumper/Trim spray cause the corners of the trim was starting to turn whiteish and I got yellow bulbs and Energy LCA bushings and Shock bushings

And I wanna know, I see some Integras with the inner headlight that is yellow, u guys think that I should spray my headlights yellow with transparent yellow spray?
Kinda like this:

Yes you do...take the whole headlight out, put it in the oven for like 5 mins, then there will be like 6 clips holding the glass firmly against the headlight body, slide them off and then try to get the glass off. Then just spray it

I'd polish the wheels instead of painting them, but either way, blades look nice.

I have one, and you know what I love it. Pulls hard for a 1.6L SOHC non vtec that's for sure. I'm gonna take her to the track in a few weeks hopefully, I'm hoping for a 15.999 on a gutted interior.
