Ready for paint.

Duuuuude, I'm going to have to do that here after I get my big order installed. I might leave the rear seats out afterwards but I might just throw them back in. You definitely inspired me man! Project looks clean so far but I cant wait to see the end result!

^thanks homie I really appreciate it!! Yeah I can't wait to paint it either! I'm deffinately leaving my seats out, that was the whole reason for this project! After the paint cures I can do what I do best, and cut and buff the orange peel out of the clear and get it really close to the exterior paint.

Another top notch car detailer, thats what im talking about right there! Amen!

Hey, I wonder though, I have a coupe but I wonder if I take my seats out and cleaned everything up like that if it would look weird? I'm assuming the entire carpet in the car would be out permanently as well since I would be spraying it down with basically a bed liner material or sound definer.

I dunno if it would look weird or not, but I was bouncing around between colors to spray the interior flooring (I'm putting the side trim panels back in) and I was gonna do either battle ship grey (played out I know! But I freaking love it!) or oem. I settled on oem since it was just the flooring and would be cleaner...

But any ways, I found this AMAZING ek coupe interior on honda tech



I was so close to going grey!

Yeah it does, after all the time I spent busting my ass before going in to work on just the rear floor section I couldn't imagine trying to do a full interior out of my garage! I'm already sick of working it haha

See, I would do something like that only spray down some truck bed liner, in like black. But I would almost want to keep my center console because I have switches wired up to it. Hrmmmm

Hey would you tell me about your car jack holder?, did it come with the car or is it aftermarket?. I would like to get one for my Coupe.

Thank You for your time and help.

Oh, not sure myself on those tire jack holders. I know mine didnt have it when I bought the car but then again, I removed my spare and jack. Still got em if anyone wants to pay for shipping. They will be yours lol.
