i think its pretty obvious that the hood is popped in the final pictures you can see it lines up perfectly in the others.. overall i would say clean up that bay a little bit and get a quality lip and sum wheels

That looks sick man. It's sweet seeing it all rough in the bodywork stage and so clean after paint.

I can never get tired of the JDM front on Integras, and even though I don't usually like that shade of blue, it works quite well with the color of your wheels. However, it does look to me like your car may be sitting a little uneven from side to side. Probably just me.

Anywho, very cool car. Did you buy it with the turboed motor in it already?
