Dude! Props for trying to build something good here. Amber repeaters look awesome, headlight work subtle and stylish. Matt wheels, great idea - matt bonnet... not so great  Grin

Keep up the excellent work on the project, this has to be my all time favourite pic:



All the best and keep this thread alive!

thx superrob Cheesy

as much as i enjoy the laminx look on the headlights, its not really practical.. hit too many potholes at night lol.

brightness could be compared to having to cellphones strapped to the front of my car.

purchased these



difference in brightness..

Now that is an admirable swap. You're right, it's OBD2A and direct from Type R Integra. Well done! Did you swap interior too? Please shoot some photo's of that ;-)

Great effort! It's good to see someone as passionate about JDM as the rest of us here.

Those clocks look great! Have you timed her yet? Around track or 1/4.

Saw you off Witkoppen this morning 7:05am - the project is looking great! Your first track outing, when you get around to it, record some video. We rent out GoPro HD out - so if you don't have your own please contact us for rental details.

Enjoy!
