    Hmm im diggin the pajnt on the hood. Must have taken a bit of time to get it done so precisely. As forthe yellow trim in tge cars interior ive gotta say I woul never do that but as long as you like it youre golden man. Cant wait to see it with some new wheels. You should also sand the lines and honda emblem on the valve cover so it will look like it used to. Instead of all black

    i like it... ...i'm with dacantu I'm not a huge fan of the selective yellow, but I don't hate it. i think it's the primer and maroon seats that's throwing me off here. I like the crx wheels too.

    I wouldn't vote for any of those yet because:
    suspension: you're obviously already lowered. i don't know what you did to get it like that, but just don't go crazy behind the wheel and it'll look a good height for now.
    wheels/tires: you already have some that look decent
    engine/performance: my rule is don't do anything to make more power until the car can handle it. (If you can't stop and turn better, don't make more power. doing that just makes the suspension and brakes work harder. just IMO).

    If you made a 4th category I'd vote for paint. you already put a good effort into the underhood dressing and interior, just get some paint on it to make it look at least semi complete. Then suspension, then brakes, then performance.
