Thanks for all the nice comments guys.

Not thread jacking. Where did you get the duck bill? I want one
I think it was just eBay. Pretty good product. There's a small blemish in the clear coat where I guess it got hailed on. Kinda chipped it. But I think that's just gonna happen.

Love the LS Mesh

Be careful when looking for exterior parts. The 96-98 are different fitment than the 99-00 so watch what you by. Make sure that it will fit the 96-98.
Yeah. I do know that much. Haha

It looks good, an SiR lip would look perfect on that.

Haven't done much to the ol' hatch for awhile. So the other day I felt like doin something that was needing done when I got the car.....

Old n' Busted


Gettin rid of the old foam


Blank Canvas


And this...


Finished product...






Yes I know the catalogs in my side pocket by the seat look like trash but they're just catalogs. Anyway, I'm very happy with how this project turned out. The colors in the plaid are just a perfect match for the two toned gray interior.
I have yet to do my visors. But I plan to.

Omg i love the plaid, looks so bad ass. I wanted to do that to my hatch before I left but decided to spend the time with the mrs instead. Love the hatch.

How did you do the plaid exactly? Looks awesome. I really have been wanting to do something like that.

I just thought about what kind of design I wanted to go with and found some fabric on ebay.
I'm very happy with how it turned out.
I did however, HAVE to use a specific contact cement because of the type o fabric I got. (It's kindof like a button up shirt material.)
I had originally bought a 3M cement that said could be used for car headliner. But it was too heavy and bled through this fabric.
So I got one made by ForceField. <Clickable LINK
It's really light weight and didn't bleed through if applied correctly.

Finally finished up my sun visors. This was not a fun job!

But it's done and looks pretty good.

Took a couple pics a few days ago. The weather was soooo nice here in MO.




And I made a shifter boot the other day at work. I used kidskin leather(very soft sheep). I didn't like the type r boot or whatever it was. It was black vinyl with red stitching. There was more boot there then needed to be. It kinda sunk around the shifter and collected dust and anything you would drop in there.
So this boot I made a little smaller. So it pretty much just pyramids down from under the knob. I like the way it turned out.

Boot looks good. Not a fan of the visors but i can appreciate the work that went into them.

Car is coming along nicely!

Whats next?

Front and rear lip hopefully.
I've been doing a lot of maintenance recently. It'd time for some exterior updates. It's looked the same on the outside for too long. =)

Well, my hatch is pretty much acceptable for now.
So my other car has been taking most of my time recently. Here's some pics of the fun grocery getter.... :D

1990 CRX Si


I bought the car with a wings west body kit and 17" wheels which I imediately got rid of.
Hence the... no bumpers on the car right now.
I have some stock bumpers. Just need to paint them.


B18C1 GS-r swap


More to come.....

Thanks for lookin.
