Isn't a type r cover basicly a GSR cover painted red?

 

[Noodler]

yeah but the hassle of getting it perfect is hard D:

 

[Sammo115]

No it isnt haha. unless you honestly suck at painting.

the little D runs pretty well this morning. to my surprise the engine rev easier now esp at higher rpms haha...a d-series with top end " power " haha. oy...

 

[Kensai]

Ugh. I got paint stripper on my skin a few times, that s**t burns hella bad I had to run to the sink everytime and wash it off with cold water. Just put the first coat of paint on my VC though =o

 

[Kensai]

Wrinke paint takes like 24 hours to dry. This is nuts...

 

[Sammo115]

If only I can find wrinkle purple...id paint my VC.

 

[Kensai]

The internet gogogogo!

 

[Sammo115]

I found paint but im not sure if it can withstand the high temp. would actually car paint hold up?

New EM1 Driver here in NorCal, I should be around here often. Nice meetin you all
Anyone know any shops or people around here that sell the Amber OEM foglights?

 

[Sammo115]

yo! and welcome.

not sure on where you can get the OEM fogs but you can go with Weksos. they have replica DEPO foglights. Been working well for me for a couple of years now.

 

[Skye]

hm thanks, i might go with those, out of the weksos ones and the pwjdm http://passwordjdm.com/PasswordJDM-EK-99-00-Civic-Fog-Lights-Yellow-P1430C164.aspx ones which would u recommend?

 

[Sammo115]

i personally think their the same haha. both sites are reliable so its all up to you weather you wanna go wek or pw

 

[Noodler]

you can get the oem fogs for 130+shipping and tax from here http://www.handa-accessories.com/civext00.html

They're clear, all you do is get a can of the stained glass paint and spray them yellow and have yourself yellow oem fogs for the price of replicas. They only have the light gray button though. dark gray ones go for about 40-60 on cc, ht, and other forums.

 

[Skye]

ok thanks

 

[Skye]

does the bay area people have any meets or get together? this is my first car so im gonna be needing a lot of help/tips on it. gonna try to install the foglights in a few days.. hope its not too difficult.

 

[Noodler]

you'll need to cut into the bumper. we on cc barely have any organized meets. if we're not lazy enough we'll have like 2 meets a year haha.

but theres always random meets on friday nights at mccarty ranch asian side.

 

[Skye]
