Wow!!! Super impressed!!!
I think it is 1 of the best I have seen. Great work!
Little things I don't usually like, but it all fits together great!
Clean, Clean, Clean

overall pretty nice, i like the relocated battery thing. i havent seen that on anything 92+ it looks very nice, i may consider doing that now...
pretty nice
either get the
symbol back or fill in the holes
how come one side of your slot for the fog lights are painted and the other is open?

About the slots.
because of the intercooler fitment i had to cut the centre grill and front right grille.
The IC piping is in the way so i had to cut it.
I'm thinking about some kind of intake for the hole on the right.

supersprint seems to be a popular brand for exhaust and springs in your area.
Supersprint makes "cheap" relliable and nice sounding exhausts.
There widely available.
the replacement cat was a gift from a friend... i would never have bought it.
OEM HONDA or CUSTOM are the best imo.

cant say I think it is finished but it is very clean!
it's finished for now... ( i have worked 7 weeks every day/night on the car.. stripping.. building etc)
Looks good! Those 17's are too big - good thing you're replacing with the ITR 15's
Turbo SOHC
Everything done very simple and tastefully. Have pics of where the battery was relocated to?
Oh yeah, one *small* thing I don't like is the euro clears

and for the EURO CLEARS.... i don't like them ether!!!! i really want the vision ambers but they are hard to come by in my country.

What did you do to "De-Lock" the door handles? I've been thinking of doing the same thing and was going to buy a pair of four door rear door handles.
Is that what you did? Was there any difficulty in getting them in? were there any tricks you ran into?

you only have to make a bracked for one of the mounting points.
Take good care in ajusting the handle rods and remove the lockrods!!!!
rol down your windows when working on the handles!!!!
My locks didn't open anymore the first time... that sucks when your windows are down!!!
