#53179 I hear ya on the insurance BS. I'm still waiting for mine to go down :lol: I so want a B18c.

Nice looking ride man, only thing I don't like about it, is it being multi-coloured lol.

#53239 First thing I would do is get that rust sorted on the rear arches. After you get the paint done, needs a lip :thumb:
By Lewis_Lsi
#53297 Yh both side have been half done. the rust has been got rid of and filled it up. i just havent had the time to sand it properly, prep it for paint, and actually paint it.
hmm not too sure bout havin a lip

#53386 yh thats right d15b2. its dual as far as i no. mine 94 btw.

#55956 okay so iv painted all the primer over silver now so i doesnt look so half finished lol. by chance i found that ford moondust silver matches vouge silver nearly perfect, actually better than the actual vogue silver can i did my skirts with (both bought from da local halfords)

iv also debadged the bonnet and filled some scraps etc, coz im gettin ready to paint it over black.

heres some driveway pics (my usual workshop for te civic lol)

#55967 Paint the bonnet silver, or buy CF. Black bonnets ftl.

Nice work so far. You're not leaving your plate there are you? :?
By Lewis_Lsi
#55979 cheerz dude. well im pretty set on it. i want a change from how the car looked before with the silver bonnet (before i craned it).

as for the plate, erm well i had the idea of using the oem plate holder but puttin it upside down. might get a vinyl or get some adhesive tape for the plate. just wanted to see what it would look like. u not feeling it then? lol

#55999 It's not that bro, I just think it's a bad idea covering up your front vent. Let that rad breath :thumb:
Ever thought of getting an square 'import style' plate?

yh that is true. yh i prob will, its just getting round to it.

atm im taking all the paint off of the alloys and polishing it up nice and clean. iv got the idea of paint the inside and the lip red and the spokes polished. ill get some pics up atm, its fucking hard sanding in all the hard to reach parts. fink my finger prints have sanded off my fingers :lol: :hehe:
