02-19-2003, 02:41 PM

I say you go white ... damn your car is coming along nicely. Are you going to shave all the emblems? Cause I would if I were you since you are gonna repaint it anyways.

yea thats the same interior, didnt even take it out hehe :D i used Krylon semi-flat black, it looks nice, i love it, and yea i'm gonna fix the rest of the body when i get time, its mainly the driver door, filler piece between the bumper and tails and between the tails, i think i'm gonna shave it and get ridda the screws in it hehe,

and melt, i got my 2 emblems sittin in my room so when its painted i'm gonna put em back on. just to show off my honda pride hehe, even tho i have one on my dash, one on my console and the stock one on the steering wheel hehe. yup i love honda and not afraid 2 show it hehe :D i wanna eventually get a design in my headliner that an indented honda symbol, i think it would look awesome.

Thanx for the compliments guys

Dude, your interior rocks! It's just the right amount of silver so that it looks like it could have been stock, but you can still tell it's custom.

Thanx for all the positive feedback guys! the exhaust is made by Ractive
the Console i made here at home. not too hard, like 20 poprivets, and some sheet metal and shes together, take it to the interiorshop, put 1/4 inch foam on, make a shifter boot, cover the outside in black vinyl. superglue the shifter boot to the bottom, install it and ur all set

Hatchin, yea i love it, its so much more... free flowing :D hehe i love it, oh yea figured out why my car was running so rough... firing on 2 cylinders :( kinda sucked but i switched 2 plug wires and boom. soooooooo smooth idling now and i can just hear the exhaust zoomin under me hehe. i love it now.

but ya, thanx a million for the good feedback guys. good to see i'm accepted hehe

god i always go on and on hehe, need 2 get it under control lol well atleast these arent in mulit posts so i only use one... see i got my post whoring under control hehe:devil: :flipa: :finger: well peace guys and girls, keep the comments and suggestions comin

I have got to say..WOW it look so good now. I remember what it used to be like. You should post a before and after of your interior so that the others that don't know what it used to look like can see the diference.

yea the heater controls are in the bottom now and my CD players up top, one of the things the previous owener did, i dont like it that much cuz my deck hits the heater box cuz theres like this chunk of plastic sticking out so i gotta try to cut it off to get my deck all the way in

thanx, alright, first, i masked off my vents and painted them fake chrome, then let them dry for 2 days, then I masked over that paint and windows etc... and just sprayed the whole dash in the car with Krylon Interior/Exterior paint. did 2 coats and i liked it so i didnt do more. also I had my steering wheel off when I painted the dash so I could try to fix my horn but it didnt work :( but yea its fairly easy to do ur dash, I did all the black in one day, outside at 7 am for first coat, let it cure for like 6 or 7 hours then came back out and did another coat.
doesnt bother me if u steal my idea, actually... i'd be flattered hehe:):D i'm glad everyone likes it
