Damn this is gonna pretty sick! I'm looking to do a coupe version of a CTR with my car eventually. I have some rust too though

[streethondas]

^The rust I have is not bad at all, just get a small patch welded on and it's good to go.

That's what everybody likes to think, and what i was trying to get at earlier....it's much much larger on the inside, a quick patch job will not fix it!

At the very least, you will need 1/4 patch panels put in, cost about $700 per side to fix properly. I speak from experience

[Reggie@MWDesign]

i bought my car and there was not a single thing rusted on the body looking from the outside...

once the body man too over and started to do the bodywork and prep for paint, the WHOLE passanger QP was rusted underneath.... so it was a lot more work in the end then we thought...

Looks on the outside can be decieving...

Just a heads up.

Are you getting 5 lug from Civicsi? aka Terry?

Speedtech should still have some panels in stock right now but I'm pretty sure they're $450... DIY panels FTW

[streethondas]

Probably get them from jdm source! Strd pricing is too high

I was planning on buying them actually... The headache to get them in a coupe isn't worth it though.
Where are you gonna pick up the cluster from? I might want one soon
