Great looking 9 you got yourself there! the volks look better than i thought they would under the car too... & some tasty mods you have yourself, the k swap should be a good addition also!

All comment welcome
 
Looking good bud! Do you want to come and paint my engine bay :lol:
 
Went on a long trip on bank holiday Monday to Suffolk to pick up a complete DC2 subframe for the K-Swap been converted to a manual rack as well stripped it down for a good clean up and a re-paint

















Zinc coated subframe bolts





Started my wire tuck, Pulled all my wires though the door grommets





My copper brake line came with my AN-3 fitting for the brake line tuck







All comments welcome
 
Re-paint came out well by the looks! The tuck will look good when finished! Can't wait to see the bay!

Its in primer ready for paint I ran out of black paint so will update when there painted

Me to pal a little way off yet on the bay need to get some EKK2 mounts then I can use my mock up engine to run the wiring and fuel line and brake lines for the tuck

Next is to strip the subframe and strip it back and paint that
 
This has come along way!
Loving how fast your moving man! Keep it up!
 
Had a little delivery turn up

Got some genuine rear light seals as mine have gone and are letting in water



Also got a genuine rear Honda badge as mine was fading



And also got new genuine Honda stickers for the outside of the car as mine have seen better days



All comment welcome
