Raf99 : 1993 Accord EX

[Raf99]

So looking at the current drips from the last engine removal / install. I got two drips... one I know how to fix, the other I do not :|

The tans dripping is bc I did not use enough sealant at the bottom of the case.


And this one... not sure. If I take the bolt out there's no oil on it, so not sure where this is coming from. Any thoughts?

Ya, that was me renewing the https certificate on the server. Should work now. & edit for a short vid.

Eastern Canada, specifically Nova Scotia is famous for it's fish / lobster and the Cabot Trail. I don't like fish or lobster, so here's some pics of the Cabot's Trail we did for the past two days. Definitely a drivers road. Beautiful views, steep turns and incline/decline. Tons of hiking trails, look off points, and all in the middle of no-where. Always nice cars travelling around it (I had seen a 15 pack of corvette's). Total complete road is 185 miles, but you'll be a good 6 hours. Add 2 hours in there for getting to this look off point. Also technically the first time I seen a mother / calf moose in the wild (was probably 10 feet away, but they kept eating and slowly moved on). Pics taken with my cell phone believe it or not. Samsung A52.

That is a fantastic table/work bench you’ve got there!

[Raf99]

I bought something that came on a large pallet. So I made this.
Cut two 2x4s for the legs. The rest are screws, use pieces under your butt for support. Paint. I'm no carpenter but seems to work. And I had limited wood lying around too.

Ya. I bought that black interior off someone long ago too. Same with the black arm rest and pieces. But I didn't realize the only thing that old black rug on the door was matching (90's wise) was the OEM crappy looking carpet on the drivers floor.
No point in keeping it, same with the floor mats. Ug. Not sure what to replace those with, the carpet was replaced to black too.

[SSMAccord]

It does "take the 90's out of the door"! It makes the door look much more modern. I also agree, that the front doors are easier than the rear doors.

[Raf99]

Thanks for the comments all. The fronts are far easier than the rears as you can tuck the material in behind. And really completes the doors for a good look. Takes the "90s" out of the door as the rest was updated too.

Nice upholstery work there. Looks like it came out pretty sick. I like that weave pattern that it has.

[Straight Success]

Damn that looks legit.

[Raf99]

Ya, I think I would redo this all of this in the future to a better material. One that doesn't fray etc. Good to try this out though. Oh, already ordered the black rope. haha.

Other rear door:

[Grumpys93]

That looks much better for sure! I like it! This is something I would love to do in the future, however I’m still trying to figure out what I want to do with the interior. Right now it’s all over the place.

[SSMAccord]

This does look really good. I am glad you decided to tackle this! It can be a little tedious in the cutting and fitting.

[Raf99]

Yaaaa SSMAccord, muchly appreciated! Looks far better. Yep.. I'm happy with this. Just have to do the other 3 doors.

Comparison of fabric:



But very hard to do. The cut has to be perfect because of how it applies to the door. I used a white chalk to outline and used steak scissors to cut it.
