Well i finally got some new pics of my car, I got the hood and front bumper repainted to match the car as it was way off before. The other stock bumper was a cheap replacement the body shop used and i took him the original to get it fixed and repainted. About the only thing really new on the car is the wheels, 17'' konig holes and i finally got my totalflow intake installed. Oh yeah and i got reed of those ugly ass altezzas too. I post more pics once i get some good light and the seenory(misspell i am sure)
The white Si is back, new pics,

iz sexy. love the hood man. beautiful
All the vaccum lines may seem alittle messy looking right now but i plan on cleaning it up, i used a vaccum manifold that i bought from Siracer on clubsi, so wouldnt have so many holes to drill, just one for the brake booster and one for a vaccum source.
nice car ... i like the lip kit.... the hood looks hella pimp too 
YEa man, it looks good, I'm planning on doing the same thing once i get a cf hood lol....really tho 8)Originally posted by Dakkon
nice to see some originality with the hood
Did you design the pa int on the hood or did the shop or did you tell them something or what? I've never had my car painted before so I don't know what to do, lil help plz.
Mmmm..niiiiice.
HEY! so how do you like that new IM?? you were suppose to do a write up on that when you installed it, did i miss it 
how are the gains, significant?
clean pix... although i personally think you should still take the white off the CF hood

Well were to start agian. Well as far as the hood goes, i had the idea to paint the hood that way from the start and then i saw a civic hatch in a issue of import tuner that had the same idea that i was looking for. So i went to my painter that got me the CF hood thanks to some a*****e that kind of hit my car head on but only did minor damage which needed the hood to be replaced so once i had the idea and had a picture of what someone else had done, not that i was trying to be a copy cat or anything just we had the same ideas. I just think that the paint on the hood sets the car apart from other civics with CF hoods that are just plain CF, not that anythings bad like that i just wanted my own originality to my car. Actually i looking at getting a CF trunk lid and having the same skeem painted on that, i just need to make a drawning of it to give me a idea of what it would look like. Cause once its painted theres no going back.
I guess i do a little write up on the intake manifold here or should i post it on the NA fourm so others can see. Let me know cause i dont want to have to write it again. I post the pics on the NA fourm if that what i should do. Really the intake manifold is great for NA and forced induction since the shorter runners increase throttle response. I know for sure that my RPMs are moving alot faster than what they were before. Also from what guess you could say sithorsepower(lol) the car pulls harder in my mid to higher range in the powerband. I cant verify right now what the gains are, i know that totalflowproducts say it makes 20hp and 20ftlbs of torq over stock. I can diffently feel a differance in airflow coming into the car, the hole set up is engineered to allow a more direct flow oaf air per cylinder since the throttle body is set up in the middle like a reverse 4-1 setup(put to me by someone else as to what it looks like).
