    I dont like it. It looks like a half ass'd job and that length shift really on looks good on 18 wheelers. Thats my opinion. Sorry i dont mean to be harsh.

    yea i know it looks half assed now. its not finished yet. i hve to refinish it, clear coat it, and then fix the gap between the black tube and the shift knob. my style is NOT for anybody. Im a weird person with a weird style and take pride in that. So yea theres that so far, soon to be finised and a lot more projects to do

    I think that's the funniest thing I've ever seen! I love it! ROFL!!



    Is there any danger to having that in the cabin if you get in a wreck?

    Not really no. I looked into a lot of things about a months worth of info about having shifters like this. Nothing really showed you can get hurt by it if you get into a crash. Plus my driver seat is lower than stock seats and my position I drive in, the most that could happen is I bumb my head on the rod. And thanks for laughing man, that's the point of it the LOL factor. I love it when people say WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!

    Re: Honda Man's Official 86 LXi Hatch Build thread

    so all through April ever since i got my tax returns back ive been working on my hatch. did a tune up with new oil&oil filter, spark plugs&wires, new cap&rotor and cleaned up the dizzy. Also cleaned up the engine bay a bit. I also wired and installed legit 3rd gen EDM rear fog lights (thanks Bryan!), ef civic fender markers, removed all the window tint, new stickers on the back window and cleaned out the interior finally. and some here are some pictures of some of the process and how she looks today.

    My girl wanted to model my rear fogs they day i get em, enjoy



    these are how they look installed on the car and all wired in.



    this was taken an 2 o clock in the afternoon so they dam bright.




    these were about 9 o clock at night





    in order the switches goes front fogs, rear fogs, amplifier switch, picures all work and indicators work perfectly, except the amp switch bulbs are burnt out

    i have one of those on my car i have the extender and another extender with a weighted shift nob .... they recomend the weighted shift knob because of the length the gaers are at would make it easier to put into gears for racing and driving purposes ... you should get one

    Ah, so that's why I haven't found any fog switches around here.... somebody's been hoarding them all! jk, lol.

    I really love the way the rear fogs turned out on your hatch, they look great.

    Most big girls have big boobs... plus she's laying down, so boobs hang low, making them look bigger..

    Nothing in here is my cup of tea
