8) yea their like pop the hood.. like "can't i don't got one" lol :lol:
I would paint the front cover to match the rest of the car. otherwise nice job im trading this dude from belpre (ricky) that 1 piece for stock fenders and hood bumper.. and they are all red.. so it will all match by the weekend
so u traded stright up for the teg for that? yea, by what tim was saying my cars worth about 1500-2000 with the damage.. so i figure it was a even trade... and this has more room in the back to haul things when i need to....
so i figure.. i got exactly what i needed, + still get to stay in the game 8)
i like the hatch better.. but then again i like hatch's so yea
what is it sohc vtec?

Another front end will not match yours no matter if it is the same color. You have got to figure in different paint fade and such. Might not be that noticable though considering its different body panels.

You have to be loosing like $400 in the trade if you trade for boring stock parts for a one piece carbonfiber front end.. wtf

I like the c/f fenders on a black car, but it just looks odd to me on anythig but black...

I'd paint them red before I'd trade them for stock fenders.

ah.. me an Jason thought that was his old car but werent sure
Joe if you put an exhaust and a few other little things on it, that sucker would fly.

right now my daily driver has a bored out 302 '306' with a bigger cam an a whopping 7mpg lol
i drove that car numerous times, pretty suprising what it'll do
some simple boltons an it would be awesome
is nitrous considered a bolton? lol

hey joe doesnt it have msd ciol and wires but no 6al box. Mike had that 2.5 piping done by d&d. Not bad for $100. The rear inter is in my bro's hatch (tims) from yours. Man it is wierd how a car can end up back here after being in hunnington wv. It has my old shifter in it from the white si along with poly shift bushings and my old drope zone struts well one long story.
is the paint actually a dif color, or is it just from lack of waxing ect. thru the years? it's hard to tell in just the pics.. whether its a shade off or what
i know when a girl i was datin crunched her civic i had to give dicks auto the paint number as well as plant it was assembled at.. cause apparently not all colors are the same? iono
you might try buffing it an see what happens

Red from what I have been told and seen, is the worst color when it comes to fading and matching....
It was originally a deep dark red, but due to the sun and years it tends to lighten heavily.....
