Looks awesome man, gotta love black EK hatchs!
very clean
not clean, not nice, not fresh. That's RIPE!
Some helpful hints?
Maybe some yellow foggies next? Wait, you want a sunroof on your vic? Wow...I'm impressed. +1 for you.
Thanks for the compliments guys... sorry I did a quick photoshoot.. just wanted to throw everything on and show the progress I've made...
As for the rims, I agree... I just don't have any money to pick up a new set. The only alternative is the Si's that I have. I replaced the Motegi's with these gt3's because they were brand new and came with tires. My friend sold them for me for dirt cheap... and I sold the motegi's and got my money back.
The grill is not OEM, it's the replica. I plan on getting an OEM grill in the near future. and yes my lips are spray painted by a friend... pretty damn good... let's just hope the clear coat lasts.
The headlights are not OEM either, they are the replica ones of ebay. My authentic ones are sittin in my closet and they need to be reconditioned for the second time, although I don't think I'll go through the trouble as one of them has suffered a crack and moisture comes inside.
I plan on doing the moonroof through a shop down here. I will have to order the roof replacement, which I believe is the 4-door ex roof w/ the headliner and they will have to cut a certain part on the end. At first I was told it had to be a coupe's roof, but if you look closely, the 4-door will fit better since it is longer and more flat like the hatch compared to the curve of the coupe. All in all, the parts from honda will cost me at least $800 plus the labor from the shop that has to cut and and weld the new roof and wire it up. I have the moonroof itself with the hoses, and most likely the wiring and relays. A guy on here with a red hatch did it. I know it's a waste of money in a lot of people's opinions, but I use to have a ex and I can't stand not havin' it. I'm going for the oem look and wanna throw everything on there.. i already have the power doors, cluster, seats, and arm rest from the ex so yeah. Just waiting for my si cluster.
I have a pair of oem style foggies... the lenses are clear.. i prefer them that way... but I will most definitely get yellow bulbs... currently I have HIDs in my headlights and want to compliment it with hid fog bulbs. I have the instructions on how to install the fogs but am a little scared. also, what bulb size are the fog lights?
anyways... here's a picture of my car with si's and a friend's from the week before I threw everything on.. and i'm thinkin' about throwin the si's back on... just that I need tires because they aren't in the best condition and the ride and response of the gt3's tires are a lot better..
and thanks for the tips anf... i just wanted to show y'all what i did. I'll be sure to keep you updated when I make her more purdy.

you're most welcome. you've been here for a while, so you know i've been detailing for a long long time and am glad to help ppl get their rides as shiny and clean as possible
personaly bro just get some foggies, some ion H3 bulbs are for sale from weaksauce industries.com at a good price. your ride is sick, i like it. replace the blue stereo with a stock Si one, and change the climate control to the anmber lighting, that way your dash is gonna light up all amber at night with the Si cluster your getting. tint the windows a bit, get some red GT3's and youre set. next photoshoot but some foam on the tires, makes em look clean and sick. other than that man get the duckbill spoiler for an aggressive apearence. this is just my personal opinion, but props on the transformation from the day you got her
I already got the fogs... and I'll look into those bulbs... I can change the colors on the deck... no way am I puttin' a stock deck.. I'm in it for sound quality. = ) and I'll probably do the climate control lighting whenever I find a si cluster...
as for the tint... I'm not gonna go any darker due to the strict laws here... it's about $240 or higher per window if the cop wants to be a prick... and I'm not down for the red rims look... but I'll just run these til' I come across something better or until I have the money to buy a pair of genuine rims.
I tried to go for the natural tire look but yeah.. i'll end up shinin' them soon. and as for the spoiler... still haven't exactly decided, but I'm pretty set on gettin' the type-r replica w/ the brake light... the duckbill has caught my eye.. but I'm tryin' to be as legal as possible... I still need to get recon. = X but first I need to get headlights w/ the amber reflector... from there, I heard I should be good...
thanks for the tips though... your car looks sick... any photoshoots?
