“Little Dreamer”

Pulled into the driveway with the car I always wanted! My dream come true!


Added Lambo-door hinges to start off the dream,along with adjustable coil-overs.

Purchased a "Bomber" body kit and some "Falken Explicit" rims on Falken Ziex tires for a nicer look. Also added Megan lower rear control arms, and a Megan rear camber kit to straighten out the wheels.

Added JDM black accented tail lights, carbon fiber rear spoiler w/LED brake light,and a midwing.

Then shaved rear hatch and moved license plate down to bumper.

Installed some interior goodies including Blue LED floor lighting w/ multiple light patterns, diamond plate flooring, aluminum plae dash panel and shift accents, titanium shift knob w/ flip-top and red illuminating button for NOS or ???(not installed),JDM pedals,SONY detachable stereo (w/IPOD ready cable, cd player,flash drive socket,external audio port),Audiovox front speakers w/blue LED bass lighting, detachable grant steering wheel system w/ Bertini wood steering wheel,Type-R titanium brake lever,rear chrome strut brace,and more.


A number of engine goodies were installed to the stock JDM D16A motor including a cold air intake, 10.3 mm spark plug wires connected to the NGK Iridium spark plugs, Front upper Megan racing strut bar (thick),chrome headers connected to a highflow CAT and catback exhaust,Painted engine compents, and engine dressing kit, and more which I am sure I am forgetting. Yes it is a stock motor, but it passes smog and runs extremely strong and fast! Here are some before and after pics of the motor. :)


Installed Halo "Angel eye" head lights to really give me the look I wanted, along with some exterior lighting with multiple pattern lighting and controlled inside the car or outside using a remote. This is a great way to find your car in the parking especially if you forgot where you parked...LOVE IT!

Installed LED reverse lights for the license plate mounting screws, so the CA Rollers dont bug me! Also installed some carbon-look motorized mirrors that have LED blinkers in them. I installed them w/ switches to allow for LED's to be changed from amber to blue with a flick of the switch!


After all this, it took me a while to decide on whether to paint or go turbo...well, ya I know, but it was killing me to know what it would look like painted, and I thought if I ever wanted to move
on to another project, I should paint it...So I decided on paint. I also had to get rid of the
polished lip look as it was buggin me.

Here is a video of my Honda "On the Prowl"

Here is a video of my Honda doing a little light show!

...and wouldn't you know it...I finally sold it after 2 years of putting this thing together. :( Well, to tell you the truth, it is for my kids who have been egging me to get a Bug due to a movie I showed them called "Herbie Fully Loaded". So, with my kids on my back, wife wanting a conv., and since I started with VW's originally, I am now going back to what I know best. The last VW I had was a 1966 Fastback,
which I slammed and put Hydros in with a ragtop and other goodies, and won a few
daily driver shows.
Click here to see the Fastback in action!

I loved that car, however I always wanted a 1965 or earlier VW vert. So, now that I have sold my Honda, I am off to a new project. Project "Vert". Hopefully, I will have pics on a linking page reagarding this next project soon. :) This should be fun!! Thanks for looking!
