updates! rims/seats. blackhope would like.

[roaddogg3034]

so i got rid of the rota slipstreams, got tired of seeing them everyday on every other honda around here. plus i think these make my car look better.

and theres a kid rollin around here in a del slo that wanted to trade me his seats for some LS seats i had, so of course i did it. only problem is that he doesnt know how to take care of things, so im havin to shampoo them, but its worth it. ill finish them tommorow and put more pics up, but i wanted to go ahead and post them up.

its kinda dark, but like i said, tommorow once i clean them more and they dry, ill snap more pics.

Nice.. Si Lip n a interior clean would set it of ./

 

[PhntmSk8r]

so...

you traded over played slips

for EVEN MORE over played si's?

I was honestly hoping for something a little bit different.

Still pretty clean tho.

 

[xenoicity]

auto to manual conversion?

 

[aaren99]

Nice

 

[EK|B]

+1 on the Si lip.

 

[dank24]

i like the blades, but why does you paint look so dull? Del sol seats kick ass, I love being closer to the floor with them

 

[roaddogg3034]

well theres really nothin rollin around here with SI's, except for SI's. theres only a few that i have seen. that and my slips were 16s. i thought i would like 16s, but something just didnt set right with me.

tommorow ill prob take the seats out to completely clean them, when i do ill clean the entire interior as well. i know the carpet looks bad, and i got some cleaner/stain remover i will try out.

i used to have a type r lip. our roads > front lips.

i think my car was once upon a time an auto. but if it was it was converted long before i got it.

and my paint is dull because its not professionally done.

im suprised nobody flamed about the hood being spaced.

Mines spaced, but i have an h22, and no rad fan... every little thing i can do helps

did you space it for the engine, or space it for the heat. cuz i know you dont HAVE to space for the h22, unless you get the h2b kit.

and i heard it keeps the engine bay temp down a little, which might help me a fraction since i have a ram air. but i mainly did it cuz i actually like how it looks.

i did it to help with the heat while im sitting in traffic and moving slow around town.

the car looks great except for... that hood makes the front end look like you got in an accident or something, fix the hood and it will be looking tight. Is the hood popped or did you raise the front too. If you raised the front too, have fun picking it back up off the highway later.

 

[2slo4u]

car looks nice..although the shaved moldings makes it look really long

the hood makes it look like you were in an accident or something, and i think slips would look better you might as well put on steelies with hubcaps or something, those rims just look too plain

eh, i like how it looks spaced. and no, the front is right where it should be, just that bumper has seen better days. plus my car was converted to 99-00, but they didnt change the support, so theres two bolts that wont fit. i got a new bumper and type r grill, but they came orange, and theres no way im puttin it on until it gets painted.

also bought it with the moldings shaved. i like it, but sometimes wish i had the moldings.

i actually like everything about it

EDIT

i guess he says the auto to manual thing because of the brake pedal being a bit bigger?

i always wondered about that, but never cared to much. my car went through so many people, i know 3 of the previous owners. and it was always manual.

and a little off-topic, but still concerning my car. its had almost every b-series engine in it at some point in time. when my friend (who owns the local honda shop now) owned the car, it went from a b16 turbo then to an LS n/a, and it was cannary yellow and had a wide body kit. then it went back to stock body, with a cammed b20 in it. and now i have a b17 gsr in it. that cars been around the block.

lame wheels, but anything is better than rota...

other than that its looking good

 

[Suanico]

wait do you have a 99-00 bumper and the rest of your front end is a 96-98 or something? the whole front end just looks off man

 

[roaddogg3034]

no, everything is 99-00. but the guy who owned it before didnt switch the support ( core support or radiator support, whatever its called). so everything is good except where the two bolts go that are to either side and a little below the grill. they dont line up. so its not supported like it should be. that and like i said, this bumper has about had it. ill get my new one put on when i get it painted.

and also if your referring to where the bumper meets the headlight and is cut out some, it was like that when i bought it. i think the previous owner tried to get the 99-00 bumper to fit on a 96-98. thats the only reason i could think of why someone would cut around the headlights.
