I like the fact that the rear quarter panels are black, you can really over do red, and the entire SIR interior is too much for me....that's a very good point about bleaching them....however, achieving the same colour is gonna be a pain in the arse me thinks!

*Update*

So in between the bum droppings weather I've had down here near London, I have managed to get some painting done :)

Started by just doing the standard small interior trims:

Centre Console..

Image

Door Controls...

Image


So glad that the plastic shinny wood effect is now GONE! I used original Honda "Nighthawk Black" and some good lacquer. Top results 8-)

Then I finally got round to finishing me Mugen rep spoiler, I cant wait to have this install on the car at the weekend!

Image

Again, Nighthawk Black spray and lacquer to achieve great results, wasn't easy tho...pain in the arse getting this right :shock:

(Motegi front and rear lips, and skirts in the corner just waiting to be drizzled with sexy new paint......not enough time and light in the day now after I've finished work)

Finished with a couple of pics tonight as it was getting late :lol: ENJOY!

Image

I have always been in love with the standard lights on this car, the glow so bright compared to todays cars....

haha thought I would add a cheeky "PRELUBE" pic......She says that I spend too much time on this forum so I thought this would make her feel more involved lol!

I looked at this car when it was up for sale... The red And black contrast look great btw, great job. I'm adding some red into mine too :D ....

And you got the missus to pose too...awesome... My wife hates ludes....we bought my first one in 2001 and I still haven't managed to get her in a snap.

Top work. On both the car and the missus. Haha.
I like the red in black interior. As you say the SiR can be a bit much.

Get those body bits sprayed and fitted it'll look stunning.

Haha Dunstable... What a lovely place.
I live down the road in Sandy, smaller place.

Kudos to spraying the parts yourself, I've tried it on some old parts for my old Civic and I didn't do to great. Think I rushed it. Not getting the right number of layers or lacquer correct.
Looking forward to the updates.
