Default first post in a new forum

i just painted my gauge bezel on my EK civic like a nice metallic blue color, just finished putting on the clear coat (at 1143 at night) and thought i'd take the opportunity to introduce myself to the forum. =P i'm actually really stoked about putting it back on hopefully tonight, i've got a friend from out of town staying over once i get my cluster back in we're gonna go drag out in the boonies behind my house = P stock EK vs. 06 xb w/ CAI.

anyone else done this or similar interior mods to an EK?? i've still got like a half can of paint and an almost full can of clear coat... what else can i tag up??? = P suggestions? thanks.

welcome

in this forum we have a tendency to glorify the "top of the line" Honda stuff. Whether it's usdm or jdm, modifying the aesthetics isn't something that this forum is into.

If you posted pics of that, the replies wouldn't be too nice. In here, painting oem parts = rice

just a heads up

hes right, you know.
if you come into this a/c forum and start talking about painting up your plastic interior, its 99% of the time going to be considered rice. you CANT make your car look hotter by painting your stock trim. best option: leave it stock, and go paint a mural on the wall or something.
and a lot of people in this forum also dont condone street racing
