ahhh to be young again
I had hardly any paint fumes at all.
It's done!
I apologize for the lack of pictures, I didn't have a whole lot of time before I have to work tonight so I just wanted to get it done.
My Dad and I headed out to the shop and set the car up on the hoist and got to work.

Then drained as much gas as we could out of it before lowering the tank.
Then the tank was out. No wonder it was leaking...

While the tank was out I took care of the surface rust under the car and hit it up with the same paint I used on the tank.
Out with the old and in with the new.

New straps as well.

Then I went over to the gas station and filled her up! It's been a little while since I've seen this. It's nice

I also flipped the front tires around so the rotation is in the correct direction since the previous owner had them on backwards. No more hydroplaning in the rain.
Great attention to detail!
I guess I forgot to update this. After doing my gas tank I just decided to not spend the money on it. It was kind of an impulse idea and I completely forgot about tuning and whatnot. I decided to pass and just keep on track for K.
Thanks guys! I plan on keeping this car for a long time so I want to take care of every problem and bit of rust as I goRight on! Looks amazing!
I got another box today

Hopefully I'll be able to install the UKDM lights soon. My parts stash is getting out of hand. I also need to email PWJDM about my OEM window visors. I purchased those quite a while ago now and still have no shipping confirmation.
Also unless I'm forgetting about something I'm pretty much done with the exterior of the car. I am looking for a 98+ spec bumper, but that should be it.
Rear bumper. I have a jdm front
thats funny because most people go for the older bumper because it doesnt say integra on it... why are you going the wrong way lol?
Last time I check, it did have "integra" on it...
And Austin, how about that rear fog we were talking about
never mind, i am in reverse lol... its the newer one that doesnt say it.
I'm still up in the air about it! I need to pick a color for the car and set it in stone first.And Austin, how about that rear fog we were talking about
Mike is right, they all say "Integra" on them.
Good choice. I think the 98+ bumpers are much nicer.
They are nicer. I don't like the way the 94-97 bumper indents on the bottom.
98+ look so good with that "diffuser" on the bottom and also I like how any exhaust sits with the 98+ compared to the 97-.
