For anyone looking for new carpet..

Mine was from 94-01 Integra.. It has really good fitment. Just needs some trimming on the sides, other then that it was good.

Did you just buy new oem carpet?

Did you just buy new oem carpet?

It was used. Found it off someone local in my area. Very well taken care of, it looks brand new.

Plus, it was out of a 95. Idk how they kept it that clean..

 

[95coupeWI]

yeah thats what i was thinking..

 

[Jeffhondadc5]

yeah thats what i was thinking..

Yeah, someone kept it pretty mint for 15 years plus IMO..

 

[mymmeryloss]

Thats good info right there

 

[Jeffhondadc5]

Nothing special.. just put back together.

Really wish I has a new steering wheel

Might get some new OEM floor mats as well, the black ones..

Small update: Just a few little things for piece of mind.

As you can tell my civic is the dx sub-model so it has some black parts on the outside of it like they all did. Im in the process of matching those parts to silver so it flows better IMO.

I was just going to paint things like the skirts, moldings, and so on. Although, I keep finding VSM colored parts locally for cheap so forget the paint for now.

So I was able to pick up the whole set of side moldings and an OEM front grill. The guy had a "show car" he told me so these parts were taken off. Very good shape though, thats why I went ahead and got them!

Probably will get around to them over the weekend since im sick as hell right about now. Don't feel like moving at all lol

Thanks for looking

Update: Got the modlings all on and the grill. Went to Honda today and bought some new screws for the top of the grill as well.

IMO I like this grill alot better now for some reason. Seems to flow well, just wish I had new head lights

Here they are...

Idk why the last picture looks like the fender is messed up, its not lol

Thanks man!

I think it looks more clean with the silver moldings, skirts, and so on. Trying to find the door handles next, the black ones look out of place now lol

Naw I think they are alright, get an SiR lip now! Jump on the bandwagon lol

I was going to go with the OEM ctr front.. still haven't made up my mind but I kinda like that better.

Nice job on the interior!

was gonna pull my carpet out, vacuum it real well, clean it, then Rit Dye it black but was wondering... Was there a How-To on the carpet removal you followed that you can point me to by chance?
