Hey, I'm new to Hondas just bought an EF Hatch from my sister-in-law's dad. $700 No Rust 100k miles.Minor damage/faded paint. Also in the process of De-Ricing the interior... You'll see.. Taken with Camera Phone, so a bit blurry.

First things first, The Interior has got to go. Probably an engine swap or a Mini-me for now, painting it Champion White or Scion tC RS2 Blue. Some Work Equips SI-R Tailights and Front bumper. Stains on the Driveway are from a 72 Chevelle

Hehehe, no the person he bought it off riced it out. He doesn't like to mess around with cars so he left it how it is. It also had a small APC Fire Extinguisher on the passenger pillar.

Hehe, guess so... I bought some Medium-Gloss black paint i will paint the interior with. Got some black vinyl paint for the, well..... Vinyl I'll post some pics when im done with the De-rice of the interior.

I feel kinda bad though, because someone actually thought it looked cool and spent the time painting it just to have me repaint it in 1/10th the time it took him.

I wouldn't even try to fix that interior. I would source a whole new dash and just swap it. It would have to be removed to be properly cleaned and painted anyway.

Go get a dash out of a junkyard and do it to it.

Good buy...even with the dash.

It's a stock exhaust for a different car i think, It's dumped down near the bumper to the right, wrong side of the exhaust hole on the bumper. =P

I started painting the Vinyl with a specialty paint from Rustoleum it's rubbery i'll post a pic when Photobucket is up. I tested the newly painted vinyl tried to scratch it off.. We'll see how it lasts in the long run seems like it's good paint.

Pick a part is having 50% off Jan 16,17,18 Heading there to get new fenders, a bumper, and probably a hood. Hopefully have enough time to rip out a few dash pieces.

50% Less Rice, paint was running out so it looks patchy below the vinyl, I'll buy a new can tonight and finish it up along with the rest of the interior.




It's got a Tach!


Oh, i found out it has Underglow.......

Edit: Passenger side door speaker cover looks blue underneath , that's masking tape which i forgot to take off... Brb!
