As some of you here in the A/C forum know, this has been about a 6 month project from its decent beginings to what it is now. Its a huge step for me to have finished the car and to get it on the road with very little bugs to be worked out. All in all i biult the car by hand from a bare unibody and all i really had to deal with were a couple coolant issues, a leaky steering fluid resivior and rubbing on my fender liners. This car has been a huge learning experience for me and i take great pride in knowing i have done everything on the car myslef, with some help from fellow members of SoHonda Garage. With that said ill share some pictures of the final product! I just snapped these pictures this afternoon, theyre unedited and not the greatest, hopefully the car will have a proper shoot sometime soon, im just glad to finally be able to drive it! but you get the idea

Took the words out of my mouth. Cracking looking bay but the spoiler and canards throw it off a little IMO.

thanks for the compliments guys.... honestly i knew alot of people wouldnt be diggin the aero parts right off the bat, but i wanted to try something different, and i really started this whole "theme" with the need for a more steady stance at high speeds, when braking from upwards of 100 mph the rear of the car got very unsteady, and i fell upon a great deal on the J's rear wing, and from there i decided to fab up the canards.... i love the apearance now, and from what i can tell so far the car is much more steady ( i haven gotten a chance to really push her because i havent gotten an alightnment yet and i dont want to kill my new tires) hopefully ill be doing an autocross event in the next week and an couple HPDE's this season. needless to say it will be a fun year

i think your car is the only hatch that wing can be pulled of in....your car has an overall feel to it compared to parts put together...well played
