Well hi,

The winter is long in here in Norway, so i found out that i would repaint my car, and change some minor shapes.
I have a much more thorough build tread on the Norwegian Club-Honda forum, but I thought i´d keep it very simple here.

First of all, the car is now on funny painted winter rims, buddyclubs for summer and sorry for my bad English writing.

I know its a lot of pics, but i hope somebody find it interesting.

I wanted to stay close to oem but change some parts a bit.

Front bumper;
some repairs,
removed the headlight washer system,
removed the lisence plate,
the front tow hook cover,
removed misc holes,
glued on the oem lip,
changed design under main vent,
trimmed the sides that wrap around bumper















result so far:

Rear bumper. the edm version rear bumper has and ugly license frame on it, so i removed it from the front and put it on the back side. from there i fixed the edges to give it the look of the us version.













Well, now you have seen the trunk spoiler, so what have i done with it?
Its an oem trunk with a modified carbon fibre JDP Engineering spoiler built inn to flush.
pictures from the build:


































Im having truble finding a shade of color i want, but it´ll be green or brown. So far this color is the favorite:




So that is how far ive come. More will come as i move on. hope you find it interesting and have a nice day.
