    EG Interior upgrades

    Okay guys, so B series conversion is on the cards. BUT. Until then I want to get the car a bit more respectable. Currently, I've got it on some nice rota's and it's been dropped a bit with a lip. So I'm happy with the outside.

    But the interior shits me off. Carpet is grey, inside is grey and the seats look homosexual.

    What are peoples thoughts on doing the following mods to EG Hatch Interior:
    - Upgrading to DC2 Recaro's + Low Rails? $1500
    - Changing carpet to black (my carpet is stained so I need to change it)
    - Nardi 350mm steering wheel

    Is this too ricey and gay?

    Considering I'm still rolling around in stock GLI engine (no exhaust) I don't know if the Recaros would be stupid. Outside I think looks good already, nice tint, lip and rims and slightly lowered. Just your typical JDM styled EG.

    can you form your own opinion? if you like recaros, chuck em in, if you want a nardi steering wheel, chuck em in too,
    if you wanna put decals all over the bloody thing, do them too,

    as long as you like them!

    shouldn't u be the 1 forming the opinion on what is ricey or not? u wanna put recaro's and change your carpet 2 black, and use a steering wheel that a majority of the top cars on here use, and your asking US if it's ricey

    the cars registered to your name, not ozhonda.

    Of course I can form an opinion but it never hurts to ask. If people never asked for others opinion, there'd be a lot more Honda people driving around in riced out shiboxes.

    I'm thinking about stripping the carpet too. But right now, considering its still stock engine there's no point. Plus although JDMYwards EGK24A goes hard, the interior doesn't look too appealing (obviously being a race car).

    I doubt I could sit in Yonas' car everyday, especially with anything under the hood to back it up.

    YEah if the new laws allowed me to get a mod plate i wouldn't have rear seats and their would be a cage in there

    I'm on a fairly stock motor but never hurts to get all the suspension and stripping done in preparation for it
