Okay, I bought the car last March from the auction I worked at, for $445. It had 73,xxx miles on it. If you live in a place like Illinois, you know that rust on an older car like this is very common, but this one doesn't have any. I recently picked up some EF9 rear seat fabric from a guy in France. It was a little harder to find the front seats to match, but I finally did. They are from a civic 25xt (whatever that is.) This fabric is straight from Japan and I spent a few hours today, covering the passenger seat just in case I would run into some problems and wouldn't be able to finish, my wife would be able to still drive to work. She would be okay driving with only 1 seat up front, after all, she had to drive without the rear seats for a couple weaks when they were being covered. That was the first thing I've ever attemped like that, but it was pretty easy, once I got rolling. Here's a few pictures. If I get any interest, I'll post more as I add more stuff. Tell me what you think.







A little dirty,

I strongly recommend getting a purple Dyson (for pets),


If anybody needs this fabric, PM me an offer. Shipping should be real cheap. They don't have the common Honda rip.






Thanks for looking.

 

good deal on it... interior lookin nice with the ef9 seats

 

In your wife's car!!!

 

Yep, it's my wife's daily. That's my 4dr behind it.

 

Good buy, thats a nice clean hatch
She's gonna be begging you to drop a k in there now....watch out

 

She doesn't even know what a "K" is. And to tell you the truth, I don't either. I'm a great gas mileage/reliability/nice looks kind of guy.

 

greatttt dealll car looks very clean!!!

 

Looks nice.

 

Awesome, the seats look great and the car as a whole is mint! I noticed the shifter looked kind of weird, is it an auto with a boot covering the letters?

 

Yes, it's an auto. It didn't line up right with the gear indicator, so I put the boot on. I don't know if I want to put a manual "looking" shift **** on there, or try to figure out how to make the indicator look good. If anybody has done this to an auto without a shift boot, please post pics or give me ideas.

I think it looks great, and with the gear indicator on the dash, it doesn't matter that much that the letters are covered up. I say keep it as it is!

 

Thanks John, you're a Good-man.

 

I forgot to post this,

 

pics of the wife? the car isnt all that impressive. post in appearance/cosmetic.

 

Looks nice and all, but wrong forum. This belongs in the Appearance/Cosmetic forum or in the photo sticky.

 

OK, I'm not sure why this doesn't belong in the "Honda CRX / EF Civic" forum, but rules are rules. How do I move it, or should I just post another one?

 

this is a technical forum, thats why.


2. we have a pic post thread for posting any and all pics of your car. there are some rules for that thread, though:
- everyone gets one post and only one post to put all their pics into. you can put as many pics in that post as possible or as many as the post will allow.
- the very first post lists all the people who have posted in the thread and what pages their posts are on. if you search for your username in the list, you can see what page your pics are on. i also included the link to each page.

if you do post a pic of your vehicle or a part of your vehicle in a thread, it will be moved to the appearance forum.

 

What about the people who create a thread with their ongoing progress?

 

Lets see pictures of the wife!

They typically include technical information and instructions with pictures as illustrations of a process.

Otherwise, they get moved to Appearance/Cosmetic.

 

looks very clean! keep it up!!

I'm not trying to be smart, but I just started this thread today. I can't really show progress yet. If it is a progress thread, should it stay here or be moved. Or should I add tech stuff to this thread? I just want to abide by the rules.


And for everybody who wants to see my wife,

She's the hot one.

What other plans you got for it......NICE!

 

I would like to find a stock front and rear lip and some side skirts. Maybe some fogs. The only things that will go on or in this car will be stock.
