Finished! Now, for the engine bay.
So I've finished the exterior and interior of the car, and here is the outcome! Tell me what you think.
Now, for the engine and everything under the hood. EVERYTHING under the hood is under 4k miles besides the D16Y8 which has 60k US miles. My budget and options are: Build + Turbo D16 or B16a2. What would y'all suggest? Thank you for your feedback!

Looks hella clean man. Way better than my civics exterior. If you have the time and money for a swap go with maybe a b16 like you said or k series, I'm not a very big fan of d series unless they're boosted to hell. Just my .02

Thanks! Yeah, I'm just torn between boosting my D16 or just swapping for a b16

Clean!
Just a few minor suggestions, what about:
CTR headlights
CTR/Spoon side mirrors
OEM/JDM foglights
JDM thin molding
OEM/SI front lip
JDM side marker
Window visors
Rear lip

OEM SI lips are available from the Honda dealer, and have been for some time. You just have to know the new part numbers. 
71110-S04-Z00ZR ELECTRON BLUE PEARL
71110-S04-Z00ZH STARLIGHT BLACK PEARL
71110-S04-Z00ZL MILANO RED
PS - OP I'll sell you some authentic JDM power folding mirrors already painted FBP if you're interested.

Re: Finished! Now, for the engine bay.
I like the b16 for the reliability but the boosted sohc would be fun to drive. Boost usually requires more maintenance, up keep than a stock motor.
Is there any particular reason you are wanting boost or a swap?
