paints not bad but could be wet sanded and buffed more on the doors.
Thanks! Yea, I plan on doing that when I get a whole weekend to work on it.
I'm also making a trip to the Honda dealer to get the floor mat hook installed, it was part of a recall that hasn't been done on my car yet.
What about this type r lip, $39.99 with free shipping & promises to come in a full box.
No drop yet, I'll do it next year when taxes come, I like the type r plus a friend of mine has the same front end I have on his car & he bought this same one last month & it looks good on his, no drop either but he is doing his soon.
Here is a Mugen lip, what do you think about this one? Only $39.99 with free shipping.
Finally installed the AEM Dryflow filter my friend gave me, waited for the adapter & it never showed from ebay, got my money back & went to autozone & found one for $3.99.
Just pulled my left & right ac vents out for paint, also tomorrow if I have time I'm gonna paint the center console as well, I'm going black & gray for my interior, finally have a direction. Pics when it's done.
Didn't get to finish work on the interior but maybe this week or coming weekend I'll get it done, the floor mats I ordered from ebay had a flaw before they were shipped so instead of waiting I cancelled the order & I'll get them somewhere else, sucks!
That sucks bro, at least they didn't send them sith the flaw though. The risk of shopping on ebay I guess, love the [prices but u gotta be wary. Get that interior done, I wanna see it lol.
Trying man, being a stay at home dad doesn't always allow me to get things done, when my wife is home it makes my life easier to spend more time getting stuff done but lately she has been sleeping in late on the weekends & that means less time for me to get stuff done, going to a used Honda yard today to get OEM mats, I'm mad at ebay for the moment.
All of the mats they had didn't look good at all, plus couldn't find a set in one color, this double sucks, I want mats now!
So I decided when my son was napping to paint my center console, it's finished & back in the car for a nice bake, I didn't even scratch it putting it back in, even cleaned under the console & got all of the crap that falls in the e brake. Need to do other dash pieces but will have to wait. Pics coming later.
OK, pics as promised....
Nice progress, love the clean look, a drop will make it look better, but the 17s might limit how low you can go depending on tire size, bu your car does seem t have plenty of room for a 2'' drop, coilovers FTW, it gets old getting up off the ground everytime you have to jump out of your car, lol, so having coilovers will let you play around with your ride height, just sayin, my car is too low, hate it when I'm runnin errands.
Center console looks GREAT, hopefully it lasts for a good long while. Also I noticed you have mats in your car now lol
Thanks, those mats are not the ones I purchased, still waiting for my oem style mats to come in.
