Hey Travis ......what stage are you at now in your project?
And ya I get called your name most the time...... I thought about shaving the molding but I don't think it looks as good on a hatch.......definetly looks sweet on the coupe though (like Old School Swaps ride) I think I'm going to keep the moulding , But definetly painting them and other parts as well ( mirrors, bumpers, piece between the tail lights that holds licence plate and some of the window trim. It'll be a long winter spent in the garage : ).

I'll have to post a pic of the car with the new wheels I just put on. The pic will have to wait till it comes back from the dealership though (getting engine mounts replaced).

Hey HostileJava,

Are your old rims for sale????

HostileJava
10-24-2002, 05:01 AM
I guess they could be, I hadn't thought about it. They have almost brand new tires on them though - about 700 miles on them. So I wouldn't be able to get rid of them to cheap.

wow!!! nice rides guyz : )

Gives me alot of insentive to keep on with my work I'm doing.

Well I've got about 2/3 'ds of the bodywork done. But am still in a dilemma about whether I want to shave my moulding or not. Just doesn't seem to look right cause the bumpers have the moulding built in ya know, Kinda offsets look(clean lines down the side till you see the bumpers) wish I could fill the gap between the moulding and lower part of the bumper to give it cleaner lines . But so far I have shaved the door handles , antenna, roof plastic trim, back emblems except the honda emblem.

By the way.....does anybody know other than the junkyards if there is somewhere I can get new fastners for the mouldings and trim pieces?

And thanks for showing me your sweet ass!! rides guyz.....

keep em coming could use all the ideas and input you can give me.

Thanks, Trevis

It could be, I orderd it from Erebuni using there part number for a Xenon kit, but I didn't think it looked right. At the time it didn't really matter. I got it because i had rear endned somone and it covered up the hole that thier exhaust left in my front bumper nicely.

Hostilejava whered did you buy your front lip? Cuz im thinkin about doin that to my hatch and I am confused because the xenon kits i have seen the front is different than yours.
