yeah try push it out might be better to take it to a panel beater to do it properly with a dolly etc but yeah up to you its not worth getting a new chassis aye

Bananaman · 20th August 2008, 06:43 PM

Ohhh and how are you planning to weld to a cast manifold? Could have issues there in the future

ranom01 · 20th August 2008, 06:49 PM

getting a fabricater to do it

VTAKYO · 20th August 2008, 08:14 PM

Most places will cut that rail out and weld in a new one for about 150-200. I had two of mine done for 300 after the past owner was a muffin headed fuck and jacked the car up off them.

You are meant to cert the repair, but you may be ok.

VTAKYO · 12th September 2008, 05:36 PM

O man, rust galore. Good luck repairing it all. I'll be interested to see how you get on with the de-loom, am currently starting on it with the EF9. What are you planning to do with the fusebox?

cant complain, it was free

planning of moving the fusebox under the dash in the center of the fire wall, ive got no heater or anything under there

ranom01 · 13th September 2008, 09:30 PM

little update

i think i have found the colour im goin to paint the car:

its called Almond Cream, a factory civic colour made for 88-89, colour code Yr-88

im planning on the same paint layout as the car in the pic, havnt decided on the bonnet tho

CRZYSi · 14th September 2008, 04:29 PM

nice bonnet au !! ............

that colours looks nice and subtle

XPLOIT · 14th September 2008, 08:54 PM

Bonnet and bumper black

crozs · 17th September 2008, 10:07 AM

yo man,u wer in my homeroom wernt you? any way...go for that colour man,i was thinking that for my s13 but went along a different route

VTAKYO · 17th September 2008, 01:11 PM

Painting facelift body parts black is a waste of a good car. Damn yanks and their love for unpainted carbon

. The black mouldings etc were generally only seen on the lower spec models. However, with a flat (non metallic) paintjob like that I reckon you could pull it off... but would defnitely need to be slammed. You could even two tone, using the side mouldings as a splitting line, would work nicely. Some EF8s came like that.

i am going with the almond cream, but it will be a matt colour, and i guarantee you it will be slammed lol

but ill stick with the matt black bonnet, bumpers, strips, and spoiler

Why? Because you dont like it?

I think civics can look good with black bumpers, but do the car a favour and paint the bonnet the colour of the car. Mat black just makes it look cheap
