So i got tired of my integra and sold it. I picked this thing up bone stock and in dire need of a new windshield + cleaning. (Previous owner was a heavy duty mechanic)

Day One. At the carwash the same night i picked it up.

About a week after. :D This front lip is no longer on. I decided to go with an OEM CTR front lip. I also have a new front bumper sitting in my garage. Should all be on pretty soon.

Im not too sure if i want to do a rear ctr lip, and if i should color match the skirts, moldings, and mirrors... Maybe even the hood?

Photoshoot when we both finish our hatchbacks! lol

Awesome actually. Waaaaaaaaaay better than the function and form type one crap i had on my integra. Theyre Koni yellows paired with eibach sportline springs. I have them on the stiffest setting.

I think the matching trim adds to a very clean look. My coupe came that way, i love the clean appearance

Damn, looks clean just the way it is. I think the black mouldings/skirts/lip/wing look good just how they are.

I'm going for the same set up! Coilover give the shittiest ride ever imo unless there tein flex, had them on my prelude they had a really comfortable ride! Even better then stock suspension!

Photoshoot soon :D

Either way you go with the moldings, the car will look great. I found a clean hatch with colour matched moldings for comparison

or at least polish the ones you got!
....or black out ! CTR style

if youre gonna paint trim, i'd say do the mirrors and door handles, but leave the skirts and mouldings.

Seriously? Lol tein flexes are balls every car i ever been in with them was unecessarily stiff and most people i know that had them got rid of them for something else. Nothing wrong with coilovers if you go with a good company and a good spring rate for the street. Anyhoo joe car is looking good as always, u should keep this one ;)
