yeah baygon has the best fd i've seen in ages next to itachi's.

You rkn? Not a fan of that race car look. Hellaflush all the way ^^

And as for the badges, just spray them... My mate did my whole front grille and rear in satin black for like $10?

Johnny: lip wing looks sick man. +10000. I think it's the same one as mine.
And if anyone is interested, I have a spare lip wing unpainted which I'll sell off for like $20.

[jprak]

thanks aries, hmm i got mine for 25(including paint)+25 postage took a week to paint (lazy much) and shipped out last thurs and got it in today =)

[lolmclol]

thanks lolmclol, planning to get a rear window spoiler and debadging the civic and mugen. going for a clean look xD

too bad my J's racing exhaust isnt shown as it was made for the FD2R, its barely visible and its on the side a bit <.<

The whale tail spoiler? They complement the rear really nicely, are you going for same as car body or carbon fiber or? The J's Racing C304 (something like that, the titanium one) Been wanting just the muffler to swap with my OEM one either that or the tanabe medalion one haha.


I'm currently waiting on my bride door inserts to arrive, hopefully late this week or next week , got the arm rests sitting there, but don't feel like tearing down the door twice :-p.

Also installed my shifter bushings today! Yew! Shifting no longer feels like a limp pen0r.

Lastly ... finally decided on wheels, will be ordering this week I hope .

im going for this spoiler

i got the J's Racing Titanium FX 60RS. ahahah yea should change it man. get the c304 since its cheaper and looks nice =)

i want to retrime the sides and armrest black.

how was taking the door off lolmclol? hard or easy? im scared as XD

[lolmclol]

I like the spoiler, that transparent style will look good as well.

With the exhaust did you just buy the muffler? or the whole axelback and jazz?

Door trim looks more fiddly then hard, will let you know how it goes once its done, did my arm rest last week, that wasn't bad, just getting the arm rest to look flush haha. Go for bride material, if it can handle butts squirming on it and constant in and out it will never lose its appeal on the car . When you take off the OEM fabric it will make you realise how awesome the bride will look . Will post pics when its done, hopefully this weekend if it gets delivered!

For the door trim removal, going to use these guides as a pointer when doing it.

Just also need to find some of that 3M adhesive spray, fingers crossed spotlight carries it.

[jprak]

the whole axelback? correct me

its this http://www.risingsunperformance.nl/m...tm-d2-60rs.jpg

aahah yea ive read that tut before. still deciding when to do it XD

goodluck finding the product. pretty sure spotlight would carry it. if not, your local hardware store?

[lolmclol]

Yeah I think that's a muffler with axel back (could be wrong I'm not 100% on exhausts), tempting though! .. After wheels of course, running around on budget steelie style at the moment >_>

Had a quick glance around bunnings the other day, went into buy some high zinc rust protector primer (contemplating on cutting the frame where the CAI sits as opposed to inner wheel arc), currently have the old coolant pipe split in half over that spot, checked today after 500km+ and its show only indentation as opposed to cutting into it so hopefully it will last a little longer while I make up my mind.

See that's the same for me, but at least you can take all the doors except the drivers and do them inside, don't have a garage and nosey neighbors keep asking me what I'm doing :-p ... best one the other day was "is that a powerful car" ... casually chuckled with a naaaaah.

Can't wait though .. will match my shift boot + armrest xD ... now to burn money with some reupholstered OEM seats xD in bride fabric!

We all know who has the best FD on here.

[Areis]

Johnny your exhaust should be a catback I think. It's the full system ^^ should be getting mine this week

[jprak]
