I didn't swear, I just added an F :)

honestly though, if I hadn't ordered dare plates, I probably would get the OMGCRX plates, just to be amazing.
 
looks great! i want a new paint job!! are you gonna shave the doors and fenders where the plastic trim went? im not real big into the shaving thing but i always thought that would be a clean look. nothing too crazy though.
 
Seriously great looking car. I'd make some cosmetic changes if it were my car, but that's what my car is for. I'm pretty jealous right about now.

Also, I really want to do this:

Such a great idea. I hope you realize how damn funny that is.

But just to help you get your baby on the road, here print a couple of these out & slap 'em on there!

he just painted all the trim..i'm sure he's keeping it. He's into more of the OEM look

I'm about to say forget the dare plates and grab some PA OMFGCRX plates lol
 
heck man do the thing dave. i dont think i will be shaving anything, however if someone local wanted to offer me up an ef9 shell for really cheap i am wanting to do an experimental build on it. still got work on this one, more clear, wire tuck, new exhuast, blox lower control arms, roll cage, DB steering wheel, and lots more so check back often to see what i have done.
 
new exhuast

Thank god. It would be a shame to keep the 99cent store fart can after putting that much work into everything else.

As far as the trim & the OEM look goes, I say keep it. I wanted to say return the door handles to black, but the more I look at it the more I'm coming around to the way the red looks w/ the car.

I was also going to suggest painting the hood to match. How ballsy would it be to have the CF hood, & cover it up? Nobody does that. But I'll save that for my ride because, again, the more I look at it, the more I'm coming around to the way the black hood works w/ the rest of the black on the car.

Overall, very nicely done.

And just to take over your thread for a minute to rant, it pisses me off that a tear-down & rebuild as extensive as yours (& some others on this site) will never make it into a magazine. The tuner mags wouldn't cover you because there's no flashing lights or zillion dollar 'ice' & the hot rod mags won't touch a honda just because it's a honda. Get's my goat, y'know? :rant:</rant>

Found a valve cover for you:

The color scheme looks great, and your car is awesome, but the last pic makes the finish look a little dull and the passenger side fender a little wrinkly :(
 
yeah i see what you are saying, hopefully when i lay more clear and wetsand and buff it then that will be cleared.
 
thanks girl, hows life.

my pics didnt go so well on that other supposed honda related website, bunch of keyboard jockeys over there.

well i promise i will start working on it again but getting ready for a new baby eats up my time now.
 
when they start gettin their jocks in a bunch
be like listen, you got all the rips, so show me that you got and what YOU did to it, not used mommy or daddy's credit card for, and I bet half of them shut up.
 
Nice pics, guy. I just love the way rex's look stock, so props to you for modding it to your tastes w/o trying to hide the original design.

thanks man for the compliment and let me know on that valve cover.

You know....I think I just googled carbon fiber & honda or something....but going back to the properties on that pic I found
Cerious Online Shopping Center

The problem, as you will see is this:

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Search Results[/FONT]​
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Found 1 product(s) for Engine Components (1-1 of 1)[/FONT]​

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]*Sales of this item are discontinued [/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]PRICE: $0.00 [/FONT]​

Best of luck w/ that. Maybe you can find one somewhere else?
