new member , my ek hatch 98

[Destroy]

was thinking a black roof if not ....

Two words, hell no.

I agree. Please don't paint the roof black. If you want to try it out, see if you can get a vinyl wrap on the roof instead. That way if you change your mind you can get rid of it easily.

An EK4 would have a moonroof. Plus he would have probably included an engine shot if it were DOHC (like all EK4s).

I'm betting it's a 1.4I / EJ9 (D14A4, 1.4L SOHC) or a 1.5iLS / EK3 (D15Z6, 1.5L SOHC VTEC). They have optional moonroofs according to the catalog.

A 1.6iES / EK1 (D16Y5, 1.6L SOHC VTEC-E) would also have a moonroof.

They way I did mine doesn't let in any water.

I used the stock cap-nut and an extra hex nut on the rear studs and just made them into little posts. I then put a double-layer of electrical tape on both the inside and outside of the hole in the hatch. The cap nut posts just sit on the old hole.

some pics please

very nice man, like the lip kit and the fact that the side moldings are silver as well. needs some good wheels though

 

[J_Uhrig87]

leave the hood stock and don't paint the roof black. new rims for sure, and a drop. i do like the stock rims painted white though, if you do get new rims, maybe white ones would look sick.
welcome
