 Did some of the body work before paint.  Was planning on painting it Turbo blue with spary cans, but wasn't working out.  So i spent the next 2 weeks sanding what i painted and it wasn't fun at all!

I put in the sound system from my girl friends subaru.  2 MA Audio Subs, 1200 watt MA Audio amp, and box.  Loud as hell!

Then i decided it was time to paint it since winter was just around the corner.  I took all the parts off and dick did some of the body work.

All ready for paint in just 2 days.  We patched up a ton of dents, rust spots and sanded the rest of the blue paint off.  Then i went and got the paint and clear coat costing $315.00 or so and paid Dick $300 to do it.

I choose a color i've always wanted one of my cars painted.  KRYPTON GREEN!!!

Here is the finish product!

Near future mods include red steering wheel, Shift knob & boot, and E-brake handle & boot. 

Well everything finally came in...well so i thought!what your looking at here is about 200.00$ worth of junk. =) I ordered Everything on Oct. 7th and got everything by the 16th.  Most of it came wrong, so i'll be waiting even longer!

The 1st came the Ractive E-Brake Handle.  Looks okay but very cheaply made.   I got the Hayame Performance Shift Knob last week and im very pleased with this.  Very high quailty and came exactly as orered!!!

I got this on Monday the 13th for my birthday from my girl friend.  She got it from walmart.  THANKS BEAUTIFUL!!!  I wanted metra but walmart doesnt carry the good stuff.  The person who owned this before me must of been blind folded when he installed the cd player because it doesnt work for shit!  It keeps going on and off when im driving and sometimes doesnt work at all and i have to reach my had around the back of the dash and giggle the wires to get it to work.  So now i plan to move the cd player to the top so i can reach it, instead of having to hunch up to push a button!

This next 2 parts come from SpeedSport709 ebay store.  I asked them multiple questions before i ordered to see if i could save on shipping and making sure they had what i wanted.  They answered back with the most confusing responses ever.  The parts were shipped super fast but it came wrong as expected.  I received 2 ebake boots instead of what i ordered.  Luckily they left there number on the shipping lable so i could call and get thing fixed.  I got the shift boot in today the 16th.  Wat you se pictured here are 2 Ichibahn Boots made of leather.  I used this on my delsol and loved it so it was worth the extra cash!

 Now your looking at the biggest cluster fuck of them all.  This came from the ebay store AKPerformanceone.  I found them last minute and loved the way the steering wheel looked and it came with the hub!  i got it monday the 13th and it came WRONG.  At 1st i saw that the steering wheel was completely different.  I wrote them immediately tell them it was wrong and to get back to me.  Not wanting to wait for them to fix the problem, i decided to install the wheel any and figured i could still deal with the colors.  After ripping off the stock steering wheel i relized that the hub they sent me was not for a civic cause it didnt fit for shit.  I became Pissed off and called the number on the shipping lable.  I soon found it was just the distribution company and not the store itself, WHICH HAS NO NUMBER.  How convinient for them.  So the only way to contact them was through email which takes at least 24 hours for a responce.  BULLSHIT.  So now i guess i have to wait for a shipping label and wait for it to get back to them and then wait more for them to send me what i orered.  WHAT A BUNCH OF DUMB FUCKS. SO DONT ORDER FROM AK PERFORMENCE ONE EVER!!! OR YOU WILL BE FUCKED!!  Steering whell was of high quailty and would keep it if hug wasn't wrong!

So because of them, this is what my Interior looks like. Thanks AK Performance One!!! ASSHOLES

Now some pics of me completeing the project.  I 1st had to take everything out, including Ebake handle which with out a dremmel tool...i dont see how it would be possible.  Took me like an hour.  Shift boot and handle where easy.  I planned on relocating the cd player and puting in my eclipse flip out dvd player and for some reason would not work at all!  Worked about 7 hours on it and i was having all sorts of problems so i asked the g/f if i could have her flip out, which wasnt as good as mine but better then a regular mp3/cd player...and she said YES.  I transfered the sony into her car and put hers in mine which took about an hour!  Pretty easy and everything works!

Friday Nov. 21st:  The steering wheel is finally here.  Took like 10 minutes to install having most of the stock one apart.  the new hub fit cause i ordered it from a reliable comapny.  the wheel came right and as you can see its generic.  But after awhile i'll get a momo button and it will look better.  Was 40$ for the hub and wheel off ebay.  Happy and looks good. 

Next mod will be to do something with the eurolite gauges that wont stay on and they dont match!  So check back soon!

MORE PICS COMING SOON

Nice name for the car! I like the fenders, I don't understand how red goes with the green exterior but I guess contrast is good. Sorry to hear about the ebay assholes, good luck in the future tho!
