Im doing the looks now, when I don't have as much money, and drop, paint and rims in the spring when its warmer, no salt, no snow, and i have a job. Common sense? I think so. And my old VC actually looked pretty damn good, I got quite a few comments on it.

Plans-

HIDs- DONE
Do something with the rims- Kinda done ??? painted hub caps??
Shift Knob- DONE
Header- Coming
Paint VC- DONE Check the DIY valve cover threads and take another go at it
Lip
Fogs- DONE
New fender?
Dropped- in spring
Eventually paint in spring
New Headlights
Tint
Grille- coming

Honestly you can rock the primer if you just fill in all the dents and dings and respray with a clean new coat

if you like the white interior no biggie but it will butcher your resale value greatly

So you painted the VC to match the old one? The old one looked like a** lol....

Yea I agree with Redline you gotta stop buying the cheap stuff... And the tow hook for what? Your car needs a drop WAY more than it needs a useless header and useless tow hook... Its a honda, it never breaks down so why would you need a tow hook? LOL

=)
i couldn't agree more with you on the tow hook

Suanico i haven't even posted a pic of the VC painted, so I don't know why your telling me to try it again.. And maybe if you would read the thread, there's no hub caps now, and they came with the car anyways. And i seriously doubt im going to be selling this car to a 30 year old guy that will actually care about the color of the interior. So your post is pretty much a waste.

You just made yourself look like a complete dumbass... the only smart thing you said is he can rock the primer.. hub caps are gone, hence the new pics, the VC isn't even shown. And that was debated.. Read a little before you try to s**t on someones thread please. Thanks.

I know younger people might care about the interior too.. It's just something to consider, the interior doesnt have to be the first thing you look into, people see the exterior more than interior, you like little things, you could just get some nicer covers for now.

You gotta redo that VC in purple if thats the colors your going for...

whats wrong with the header? are the bolts off because its an aftermarket cat?

Okay but he posted a "COMMENT" come on dude your better than this... He didn't say your car looked like sh** he was asking a question or stating his opinion.... The reason everyone is so confused about your VC is because until recently you only had a picture of your old ugly looking one....

Dude you gotta stop... really.... I know your a jerk and all but come on lol Really? He didn't say anything out of line, he doesn't look like a dumba**

The thread didn't have proper VC pics so if anyone is a dumba**............. Just sayin...... :lol:

No one SH** on anyone's thread.... Well you did but we already know this.... HAHA

Take it to a SHOP and have it PROPERLY done bro... they will just cut both ends and weld it together, OR cut off one end and make a flange and bolt it up but that would be more expensive....

still should be easy, just drill new holes in the cat part, what are you doing as far as exhaust work
Please don't do this... It is a thick flange, not some cheap metal that you can pop a drill in, Also MOST flanges only have area's for holes where the holes are... Soooo

Again just take it to a shop..... Its not expensive at all

Ive got the header hooked up to the cat now, i just cut the pipe behind the cat and just turned it so i could hook it up. Im planning on taking it somewhere, but idk what to get done? i know i need to get where i cut welded, but im not sure what to do about the rest of it. Where the pipe goes over the axle, like ive said, is rusted and shitty, so i should prolly have them put a new pipe in there and run it to the muffler and then weld the muffler on? how much do you think this will cost cause i dont have a whole lot of money to play with right now.

if he had a drill press he could easily just drill it and fit the gasket to go along with it, but i agree with uccracing, shop is a much better idea.
