Recommendation: when money permits, get custom mandrel bent charge and intercooler piping. Those rubbing fittings are going to pop off like crazy (trust me, happened to me all the time). Intercooler won't be so bad, but if you have any at bend sections in the charge piping, they're going to come off all the time.

So I'm thinking about interior.... I would like to do black interior. But I don't know if I want to keep my rear seats. I was thinking about deleting my center console (from underneath the dash to the armrest) and just have the shifter come out of the bottom of the car. I would have a boot of some sort and carpet covering it to make it look nice, but I'm trying to find an "Post your interior" thread and I'm having trouble finding one. What do you guys think? I want simple and clean. I will be doing seats and harnesses.

Sounds good =)

I'm not sure we have a "post your interior" thread. I haven't seen one at least.

Well I was looking on Honda-Tech. I swear I've seen one...

Has anyone attempted spraying their own interior vs. sending it out? Good idea? Bad?

I did it myself, the supposedly "right" way. It worked but it's not really quality. I would definitely invest and send it out.

I just now realized my coworker is a painter. And he'll do it.

I'm going to wrap my headliner in black suede, and I'm not sure about my A pillars and armrests....

You don't think that would be cheesy? I want it to be simple, classy and sporty.

Gotta figure out steering wheel and seats then.... Hmmm

Suede steering wheel for sure. I was just playing about the suede everything. Suede accents are cool. Headliner and a-pillars look good suede though.

I don't know about the steering wheel... I need to research which one I want.

I love the feel of a proper suede wheel. They do wear down fast with frequent driving though.

paint the pillars black to match, wrap the headliner only.
