Skunk2 EF civic UCAs, or black carpet and black dashboard swap, or 6x9s to replace my sub....these are the options I'm torn between as a Christmas present to myself and the CB.

Dude I love the interior shots from your first page, looks way clean!

[mndude07]

Thanks man! I was blessed with a super clean, like-new interior when I bought the car. Now everything behind the front seats is stripped, but my goal is a half-strip. When you sit in the front it'll look like a full interior until you turn around!

Here was the backseat when it was in:


I just wish I could get the interior metal sprayed to match the exterior...whatever I do it'll stay clean, since that seems to be what I get compliments on most.

So, I'm home all week for thanksgiving break. That means the CB is getting a little love....because it really, really needs it...I've been a little abusive lately I must admit.

By love, I mean a pretty thorough cleaning, and by thorough, I mean wheel wells, suspension, engine bay, and of course interior and exterior. I'll try to get up pictures, since I haven't posted any in awhile....actually none since the 5 speed conversion.

Some might find my stripped interior(behind the front seats) unappealing....but the car has never felt more nimble! Being a DX, I can just feel pounds coming off this car and I will continue to (tastefully) lighten it.

I like the front end, you still need a grill though lol

Yeah tell me about it. I'm getting a blizzgrill eventually, so there's no point in me taking the time to DIY hack one....and the stock grill is just ugly on my car.

Did you smoke the front bumper lenses? I love that you still kept the bumpers black factory black. A very clean BBB you have with no rust!

Personally, I would have kept the stock grill on so bugs and road debris don't clog up the a/c condenser.

Yeah the bumper and corner lenses are both lightly smoked. I didn't remove the grill by choice exactly. I did a DIY grill a long time ago, and then it got kinda messed up, so I took it off to fix it and I just haven't gotten around to finishing it.

TASAuto has a "TypeR" grill for like $20. Just a thought.

yeah, I've seen it, but not a big fan. I prefer the blizzgrill/gsquare much more.

Looking good! Smoked corners? And CD5 lip?
