Looks pretty good

Good job! Save your money and boost the D

 

[civicgirlie32]

Thank you! Since I need a new tranny I will save for a swap for a Vtec D16. This will be my DD so I don't want to go too crazy!

UPDATE!
installed my rear interior today. In -20 weather... I'm either determined or crazy. anyways here are some photos.
Left:

Right (ignore my junk):

Comparison:

Unfortunately there are big scratches that the paint cannot cover but all in all.. I like the look very much!

I just took off my hatch inner panel and will paint that tomorrow. But I have to find some plastic pins cause I broke a lot trying to take the panel off
Then I'm going to do my doors but I have to find a vinyl adhesive because the SEM Sand free spray only does plastic.
As for the pale panels leading up to my headliner. I will paint them when it gets warmer, going to leave them on the car.
Stay tuned for more!

Heat the panels up so theres a less chance to break them

Will a space heater work? or is that too direct of a heat source?

Took out my radio, found these wires hooked up to the deck...

Ladies and Gentlemen... you are correct, that IS Masking tape. Amateurs....

Pretty sweet! I did my A and B pillars with PlastiDip to see if I liked em in black. I like em a lot, so I'm going to do the entire interior with SEM's Landau Black. I had a friend do it to his EK Type R replica, and it looks OEM. Also, for vinyl, you can pick up a vinyl degreaser from any automotive store that will pull finger prints and smudges off of the vinyl surface. Then, use soapy water and a sponge to clean it completely. Let it air dry, use SEM's primer, and go for it. He did, and his looks great.

See I thought about painting my door panels, but I am scared of them getting scratched and sunfaded.

Hey, I have those same seats in my 92 EG! Took a while to find some in the yard that were grey and not trashed up

Yes, that will work. Just make passes across the panel and you'll be fine. I use a heat gun which is more intense than a space heater if that calms your mind about it

 

[civicgirlie32]

wow it's been a while UPDATE TIME!

New starter from Teknotik! (and some lucky money)

New sexy headliner! (it's a little more subtle in person I forgot to turn my flash off.. ah well. gonna get sick street cred, it's going to be MAAAAAAD

 

[SiR.Huey]

Keeping it original for sure. the headliner looks fun. For some reason I like the yellow for the hatch. Not to common of a color for the Honda scene unless type r or painted. But like previously stated the grill part should get painted black. you can tape off the bumper and use bumper coat for a nice plastic black finish from a spray can. just be sure to tape off well if you do.

 

[civicgirlie32]

UPDATE!!
Headliner is in!

bought a replacement tranny

Here's the starter all opened up(shoutout Teknotik in Scarborough)

annnnnd TADA!

 

[2slo4u]
