Here is the most recent car that I finished in time for our Southern Nationals NNL this past weekend.

I have to give a big 'Thank you' to Willimo for providing me with some Spoon decals.

This was made from the Fujimi Special Edition Integra DC2 kit.
I had to lower the suspension of this car, other than that it is straight out of the box.

The carbon fiber decal on the hood is a Studio 27 Decal. It doesn't react to heat as well as Scale Motorsports decals do. It conformed well with some heat and MicroSol, and I'll definately be using this CF again.

I used Cobra Colors Lamborghini Giallo Orion pearl on this car. Most commonly seen on many Lambo Murcielagos. The pearl shift from yellow to a yellow-orange is very nice. The interior was painted black with yellow seat inserts.

It's not one of my cleaner cars, as I put the finishing touches on it at 2AM the morning before our show, but I'm happy with it.

Love the CF, paint and wheels but it looks like it's jacked up in the rear! Got kinda a back to front rake to it.

What's an Intergra? :biggrin:

Nice build, perfect example of a low-key tuner.

Some guy wrote the following to Car and Driver when Acura started selling cars in the US.

If Acura is to "Accurate", and Integra is to "Integrate", then when are they going to introduce the "Masturba"? :evillol:

OOPS.. :banghead:
It's the end of the day, and I can't type.

MODS: Could you please edit the title? Thanks.

To what? Masturba? :evillol:

Looks great, especialy the Giallo Orion. I guess the orangeish basecoat and the greenish midcoat balance out nicely to a bright yellow.

Nice build, Matt. I like the CF hood. Tough to see the true pearl effect on the finish, but I know it's there. I have a Murcielago body painted the same color which I can't quite capture accurately with my camera.

That yellow is sick, headlights and cf hood look great. Looks like a clean build once again.

it's a very clean and good looking integra. How did you make the shiny Honda emblem?

Thanks guys. :)

675datsun - Ya busted me, I only lowered the front by clipping the tabs that attach the chassis to the body and pushing the chassis up into the body and fabricating new tabs. The rear does need some lowering

NissanSkylineGTR98 - I'm not sure if Spoon seats are color matched or not. I took artistic liberty with the interior to lighten it up inside.

MoeSzyslak73 - Those are decals are out of the Revell Civic Tuner kit. This kit came with molded in badges, I shaved them off and replaced them with the decals I did not use on my Veilside Civic.
