i’ll remain constructive here and say this. It’s great to see you have some good plans on what you want to do. But a little bit more of a write up on what your plans are and a slight description on each picture. If i’ve learned anything is don’t tear shit out unless you already have the part/money to replace it or make it better. on a side note when someone says something about a “coupe build” a honda is NOT what i think ---

Doing a air bag tray delete , and new steering wheels as well. thats about it for interior . As far as the passenger door goes , it had tons of little dings in-it , alomost like some one shot it with a bee bee gun , so just pop’t all them out , and got to work on them . As far as the engine bay goes , doing body work on filling all the dimples, and some small holes , but not all of them . Basically pulled everything out , brake master being removed soon. And sub-frame brace being p-coated. Drop’t exhaust along the way that was in the way. But more pics to come … ---
