Hi all,
Just an update on my post from the "newbie" section!
I've had the front grill colour coded with the rest of the motor. For those thinking about doing it and who are more patient than I am, It might be worth getting the parts sprayed direct from Honda.
I paid £90 all in and for a few quid more I could have had brand new Honda parts sprayed meaning I could have kept the originals. I guess the bonus for me is that I didn't have to break things to get the old ones off and new ones on! That said, the fitment on the right looks a bit off :wacko:
I'm thinking about replacing the badge or even getting that sprayed, but I'm undecided at the moment and it's not a priority. Anyone with any suggestions as to what to go for?!
I've also installed an AUX cable and it was really simple - £13 from ebay! I didn't even need to use to get the casing off. I only needed a screw driver to undo the screws. It's a single cable and I drilled a small hole in the bottom left of the compartment as you look at it in the driver's seat. It's nice and neat and can be tucked away in the hole when not in use.
I've also added front Team Heko wind deflectors and in my opinion it looks subtle but stylish. I might see how the rear one's look, but it might look too much with them on! On a side note, if anyone is looking for some Mr CL7 (Faz) as Mugen styled ones for sale at £30, i'm sure he won't mind you sending him a message to enquire about them!
I'm still undecided on coilovers or springs. Coilovers defo for long term durability and reliability, but at the moment I don't think I can justify spending more than treble the amount springs cost all in! I'm looking at Eibach and AP springs.
Any hoo, just thought I'd share an update, let me know if you want a link to the AUX cable or Wind deflectors and i'll add a link on here!
EDIT - Forgot to mention - got some white LED'S and changed all the interior bulbs, well worth it!
