Thank you for your compliment but I think it's best to leave the wrap services to the pros :smile: My work is nothing compare to some of the amazing works I've seen done by the pros/other members on this forum.
I'll post the final interior pictures when I'm closed to being done. I only have weekends to work on them so it's taking me some time.
It's actually FC Rx7 and sorry, I don't have a high resolution pix.
LOL I get so much crap from my friends about the antenna...I might change it soon or later..but I kinda like it the way it is
My CT headers came in today. I was going to install them myself but Ben (redbird92) from Daisy Imports expertise/price was too good. He is going to isntall them and I will take it to my friend's shop to get the base dyno numbers before the ITB installation.

Great build and everything so far looks really tasteful! Keep it up.
Great choice with the Comptech- best option after OEM for fit and finish, unless you want to take out a second mortgage for Fujitsubo. Love this build!
How did you prep the door sill molding? It looks like you sanded it before applying the epoxy? I want to wrap my ivory molding with an ivory colored vinyl wrap since the OEM plastic is yellowed with all sorts of brown scratches in it.

I like the new CT badge. As an alternative to CT and Fujitsubo, you can always get a set of Hytech headers. They'll price between the CT and Fujitsubo.
FWIW, I have the same ivory interior and was planning on just getting the DF carbon pieces and getting them color matched ivory with a heavy clearcoat. I've got new OE units but don't want them to get as jacked as the originals on the car now.
Thanks !

All you need to do is sand them down. If you are planning on wrapping them with vinyl, don't use the epoxy. You just need to spay contact cement on top of it after prepping the piece. I don't recommand using 3M as they can't really withstand heat that well.
Have you checked out the colored carbon fabrics ??
Have you spoken to SoS about the benefits of either hand porting (rough finish) or Extrude Honing the runners on those ITBs?
In addition, what about Swain Tech coating the mating side of the intake? Or maybe even a custom Hondata-type gasket?

No I have not. I'm planning on triple chrome dipping the runners.
P.S I just picked up my car from Ben's shop (Daisy Imports here iin MD) after the header installation.....the exhaust note is...SICK !!!
I am curious what you do for a living, because it has to be something where there is a massive amount of detail and patience involved. Wonderful work.
I love this build thread.
What are you lowered on?
Everything is coming along nicely.
Don't you see he owns a sweat shop?
Here's an underage worker in the dungeon:biggrin:.............................j/k Tae

...detail/patience...I have to thank my father. He used to hit my head with his chopsticks during our Asian chess match and said "yadadada" (lol meaning patience) lol

jesus your dropping huge money piles:biggrin:
great build
great build
did your armrest cover have a hold cut for the NSX plate? or would you have to tax the nsx plate off and put it back on after you apply the armrest cover? the one i bought is a solid piece throughout without a hole.
thank you.
