Beautiful hatch, also I'd like to know how you did the door pannels... They look beautiful


I believe I wrote quite a bit of information on how I did my retrofit for my headlights earlier in my build on page 2. There is a ton of info I posted :lol:

As for the door panels, they were quite difficult... bought the inserts from interior-customs.com and used some adheasive spray to glue them on after removing my old inserts. It was extremely difficult to align the red stitching along the fold of the insert :? The other big problem with doing this is that these panels are held to the door panel using rivets...so they had to be broken and them you need to find an alternative way to put the insert back on. I used some screws and larger washers to do the job.

The car is getting there, just finised putting on a yonaka cat back exhaust with a 2.5" yonaka resonator and some Genuine Honda 98 spec ITR 4-1 headers :thumb: Its a pretty mean setup in my opinion, nice and quiet and the power gains are noticable, I love the outcome!

I will post some more pics of the exhaust system later... As for my upcoming plans...

To do list:

1. Candy Red Beaks Lower Tie Bar
2. Rear Tower Strut Bar
3. Wheel Spacers
4. JDM Power Folding Mirrors

Thats about it so far lol, will post more updates soon!

thanks man!

The lexus Greddy exhaust sounds very nice! It is not a straight pipe, but it would have to be one of the best sounding Car + Exhaust combos on the road right now :hehe: its stock manifold with the two cat's, then Invidia mid-pipes and greddy axle back to finish it off.


As for updates with my eg, I have recently put on my jdm 98spec ITR 4-1 headers with a 2.5" Yonaka resonator (Cat delete) and Yonaka Cat back exhaust. Here are some pics:

Love the sound of the exhaust, nice and quiet, and not ricey sounding at all! Has a deep tone with a bit of a rummble 8)

I have also recently bought an ebay rear tower strut bar off someone locally, and will be putting that one tomorrow :thumb:
