More progress! Painted window rubber and light housing.

I polished the body using sandpaper, tamiya compound and turtle wax.

I masked the grill with bare metal foil matte aluminum, only to see how it would look with chrome grill. Please give some input on if I should keep the chrome on the grill or just keep it body color (green)

Also should I paint the light housing black to mimic a jdm look? please input. Thank you.

Looks great, go for gunmetal housing, and body color grill... looks cleaner.

Slo,
Good to see you fixed that crack!
Nice smooth paint too.
Noticed the tach wired, cool!
I like the chrome grille as it contrasts with the CF hood. I would definitely blackout the headlight trim ala other Civic posted here...if the chrome grille surround is too much go with gunmetal like shorty said, but I wouldn't leave it body color...
and as far as I can tell, the proportions looked right from day one.
Keep it comin'!
