Well the exterior is almost finally complete. After the most amazing color ever was applied Super Sonic Blue Pearl. It was expensive but worth every cent. The pics dont do it justic at all. Its bright blue in the light but in the shade it turns a nice pearl.







Heres a little better justification of the actual color takin with someone else camera

Heres a little love for the lady. rolleyes.gif

And heres the pimped interior

More pics avaible in my gallery

I like the idea of the opening in the header panel... Wonder if some kind of grate in there would look nice.

Very nice color! And it's got that 'sheen' that I was complaining that most resprays don't have. smile.gif

Ahh, I remember what I was going to ask you....

Your spoiler, It came on some 1500S's up here, the one that barely arcs up and has the word "civic" embossed in the back. They made them out of rubber and the elements don't treat them well.

So what did you do? Fiberglass mould it? Or is it not even the spoiler I am thinking of?

Cheers,
Mark

awesome colour man - mint

you couldnt lower the car any more - the kit is too low hehe... but then how to fill up the space in your guards?

cant wait to see the finished item with your spaced rear wheels and filled guards - what have you got planned for the interior?

nice work - dont crash it#@!!!!

thanks again-

the guards are going to get filled with some sort of mesh most likely during the winter.

As for the wheel spacers im haveing second thoughts it lines up really nice right now how it is. But they are cheap so i could give em a try.

THe interior - well thats a differnt stary. lol. i started working on the dash as its now rounded and smooth with all the vents molded into it. Its also got 3 guages diagonally mounted and shaved in. its still in the works.
If only i knew what i was doing!!!
