Default New pix of the Carbon Gray 00 Si

It will look even better when I get it wet sanded, buffed, and polished on Monday. It used to be a EBP Si but take a look at the engine bay, no more blue.


Valve cover is the next thing to go, I'm gettin a stock one powdercoated, dunno what color yet. Note the engine bay color is also changed. Not bad for $1200 huh? Anyone in Southeast Texas or Southwest Louisiana need a paint job gimme a holla.

Looks clean, even with the kit. I'd say it compliments the car's lines pretty well...color is cool too. In one of those pictures it kinda looks like the 5th Gen Prelude EGP (kind of a graphite/green), though. Is there any green in the paint or is that just the lighting?

Only thing I don't like is the 'JDM' plate up front

Edit: nevermind, looks like you can just only see the bottom half in the pic....made me think it was a Japanese plate like a lot of people put up front if they're in a state that doesn't require the real plate there....haha

Yes they are real Volks, 17's. I had them repainted custom silver after having them fixed(bent w/ some road rash). Having trouble finding the volk stickers. This guy I know painted the car for me and my uncle painted the wheels, I regret painting the wheels, I should've got them polished. Oh yeah, that's how the paint looks, we didn't add any green to it. Now that I think about it, it does look similar to the Prelude color. What are you talking about by "jdm" plate? That's my license plate, that's the only way I could mount it.

I think the engine bay would look somewhat cleaner if it looked like this:

Not bad at all. I think the valve cover should be a charcoal color, or something similar. If you don't mind me asking, why did you take off the Volk stickers? You should wear them proudly.

As stated in my first post, "Valve cover is the next thing to go, I'm gettin a stock one powdercoated, dunno what color yet." The blue one was back when the car was blue. Like I said in my first post, I had the volks repainted after they were fixed, one was bent and two were curbed. I'm having trouble finding some new stickers, if anyone can help lemme know where I can get some for cheap. I also need volk center caps.
