Well with all my great luck in orange peel and shitty boyds paint, heres my latest progress so far. The EFI pipe and box look great under the hood, but I saw the biggest damn air filter under the hood of this civic and it just looked right, so I took an empty can of paint an sanded the top of the button smooth and sat it into place for a pic. For it to fit, I will need to cut out a piece of the well cause its so big. Heres a pic tell me what you think I should do. http://www.rankmyride.com/data//4/2/2721//.large/modin_101_005.jpg

It looks good, you should cut it and make it as nice as possible.

Well, I changed my mind. I'm gonna go with a cold air kit. I found an air filter, it even says K&N on it! I took some tree and heated and bent it to shape and cut a small piece of the wheel well to slip through it, and puttied it where it slimmed and gona sand it all smooth and brush it alumi-chrome. I just clear coated the front and rear bumpers, the hood, and tailgate, I'll clearcoat the bed and cab later today, don't wanna rush and have drips.
