Here is the background: Rudi got hit trice, needs new door, new bumper in back, roof is scratched so I decided to get him a new color since a full paintjob was due anyhow.
While we are at it I decided to got with the black *NH167L* lower interior and the dar gray *NH293L* upper interior.
I traded items for the climate control swap for the rooflining, shades, a/b/c pillar ... well everything you need up on top. Got it from a friend who has a very very very very nice K20A2 swap in progress.
I do not have the lower panels yet but a nice fellow from switzerland is going to donate that except for the doorpanels I need to get on my own. And since he has a prefacelift EK4 that did not come with the middle armrest I had to buy the armest cover new ...
Well, this is how it will eventually look. The handbrake was donated by another nice fellow whom I told not to despair because he couldn't swap the entire knuckles and trailing arms into his ancient accord hatch to get the 282mm/260mm brake system ... he would be wise just to swap the calipers ;-) So I got a black CB8 handbrake with a silver button as a little thank you ;-)
Rudi is rather naked right now but I would like the inside to be sprayed as well ... I am not taking out the heating system because it would mean that AC has to be refilled ... no thanks.
All wrapped outside :
So what color is it going to be? Galaxy Gray Metallic NH701M of the 8th generation. It is gray with a brownish hue to it.
