Just Playing The Game
So im going to get this whole build thread going and do my best to keep it updated. Thoughts and opinions welcomed just be easy everyone has there own taste and this is how i like mine 
Since i traded for my 98 Teg ive mainly been focusing on making it look clean mainly because i like nice looking cars and its an AUTO no point in building an auto especially since i WILL do a manual swap soon enough.
Here is a pic of the day i traded you can see my truck in the back ground that i traded for it.
After i got it all cleaned up i took it to a local park and snapped some more shots
Soon i sold the original subs and box the kid had in the car to a guy at the local car store and bought my rims off another guy who was working at the time he bought them for his Ford Focus hahahaha. Heres a before and after of the rims.
With a little Krylon magic and my steady hands i painted them.
Added a touch of red to the Motegi center caps and heres the finished product
Next on my agenda was to do something about the horrible crackling sound made by the weak ass stock 15 watt stock speakers and to rewire all the audio in the car. Replaced the stock speaker wire with 14 gauge wire and ran all my amp,capacitor, and sub wiring under the carpet.
After a good cleaning and wax i took some more shots i even painted my symbols red to help break up the white a little
Added the CI flag
Since ive always been a fan of interior accents i decided with the help of some Krylon plastic bonding paint to paint some of my interior plastics to set it out a bit more
Next i had to do something about those horrible yellow stained headlights. In the process of removing them i learned that my passenger side headlight housing had been destroyed and glued together and removing it would permanently destroy it. After buying another set for the wrong year i found the correct set for my year dissembled them painted the housing glossy black and polished the lenses. Then fitted them with 55 watt ballast and 39k hid bulbs with 59k hid high beam bulbs.
Also purchased new LED corner and running light bulbs from superbrightleds.com
Here she is with here new eyes
Decided i no longer could stand driving a 4X4 integra and purchased some new Tein s Tech lowering springs. After a week of hell and no car i finally got it done. In the process of lowering my teg i broke both rear LCA bolts and ended up having to cut them out with a sawzaw. Because banging them out would NOT work and only thing i accomplished this route was my car falling of my jack onto my jack stand and tearing my side skirt and slightly denting my drivers side door. I purchased new LCAs and new bolts all the way around and finally got her rolling again with a new attitude.
After many google searches i finally decided i wanted a front lip i went with a mugen style with full intentions on match painting it since i just match painted my oem side skirts. I installed the lip to make it form to my car before painting it and kinda liked the black accent look and so did every body else so figured i might stick with it for a bit
So rite now im only pretty much doing appearance mods till i can afford a swap but shes looking good to me.
This is my progress so far i will add as i go so dont be a stranger!!
