    I painted this thing myself. it was already cut n buffed. but then long story the previous hood with the cowl induction on it came up and smashed my window and roof and folded the hood. so I just through a spare one on and repainted it ot match. it never got cut.

    Caleb I dont know if I will ever be back in Redding. you are just going to have to get a hold of me once I start making money and i have my own paint room behind my house haha.

    Derek you are only a little over an hour away. cant be that hard to drive up here and see it for yourself.


    I am the only person you will ever meet that was really excited to go back to stock. my car went from Carbed to modified to FI to modified and now just back to stock FI. I was excited to put on the STOCK muffler over the weekend. the only thing still modified is the intake and clutch and flywheel. i get so sick of hearing hondas with these fart cans that you can hear from a mile away. all i need now is someone who has CLEAN black , tan, or grey interior that is will to make some kind of trade or deal. I am actually looking to sell it again so i would like to put some nice stock interior back in.

    thank you guys for all the comments.

    the only parts i have lying around the apartment are two trannys and some plastic panels from the interior that i was getting ready to spray black. my cars are at my moms house up in Redding which is about 2 hours north of here depending on how you drive.

    oh the moldings while I was still working in the body shop I used a 3M Trim black paint. it has worked very well. I wish I could get hold of a nother can. Id prolly use it for the rest of the interior.
