thanks roach, the ride is pretty good..I had the eibachs on the other sedan and the the ride was bouncy. I guess because of the weight difference between sedan and hatch the springs seem way better..nice and stiff


Looking good Pico!
Thanks Snooz

Got the Wife to paint the bumper for me before it started raining and got too cold to paint. Can you guess where I'm going with this.

Get some tint on that bish and she'll be awesomer.

[MessyHonda]

nice to see a car that fell into the hands of a guy that would really take care of it. (the right way)

[2oodoor]

not lovin the black bumper and headlight only now for some reason, not with the dark rims..
just my opinion youre trying to ghetto past the need for paint and body work cough cough, I should know, I did a similar thing to ours. grin
I use a facelift bumper body color, then blacked the hood and headlight lids, jdm corners, last but not least working on the top black and black louvers. Rest of the car seattle silver, re black all trim mouldings.

not tryin to sound like an ass, just being honest, I know it is a work in progress and you have awesome taste in curb appeal so it will turn out great.

[Hazwan]

Looks fine to me, but MOAR LOW is definitely needed!

[frantik]

some grey or maybe some other color would look good on the lower half of the door

i'm a little obsessed with late 80s/early 90s neon right now too :kekeke:

No Worries Roo, it's my daily and I'm doing a budget build on it, I'd rather put my money into the Sedan since I've come so far with her. But I'm sure I'll do the Hatch the proper way when I have some time

Moar LOW...Not yet...:D
