This is just top work.
Loving the naked rocker cover. Looks great. May be stealing that idea for mine....
I've not read through all this, but what have you done break wise? Any upgrades there?

Looks awesome Dan, you must be pleased :D

I was going to say surely they're not going to leave the turbo that close to the radiator! And just needs a bit more spit and polish on that valve cover, or are you going to leave it with the VTEC ghost effect?

Great stuff!!

See your traction bar, where the radius rods connect to the front beam. Did you find that the bolt when far enough through so that the nylon nuts grabs it ok? My bolts were not long enough so I had to replace them with longer ones. I see your bolts do not poke through.

To be honest mate I don't know as I didn't fit them but I presume there fine as I haven't been told I need longer ones :?
