DrLove'sKuDang: yeah, if i dont like how they look after the paint job im going to get a set of red and clears...i like how they look on a silver civic so i know it'll look better on our cb7's

fearit22: i dont have a link or any great advice of how you could do your seat all i could tell you is what my cousin told me. he said its fairly simple, it just takes some time to unstitch the seat and carefully seperating all the pieces that make up the seat cover. after you seperate them you use these as templates to get patterns on the new material (vynil being mine). after you have all the new pieces you just simply stitch them back up again (using the ther seat as a guide) and youre done. you could start off small (like the rear side cushions) to familiarize yourself with the process. good luck.

Dude I have to say that your car looks pissed off! It’s a sweet aggressive look that I cant get enough of.

[arrozburner]

thanks speedfreak53...let me tell you, i like all comments but i especially like all the props i just wish i had alot of money so i could do everything i have planned for her...someday

Well the new suspension is in...KYB AGX struts (3 front ; 7 rear) coupled with TEIN S tech springs and a Sprint camber kit (only the front cuz i couldnt figure out how put the rear in ) i'll take pics once the springs settle in...took me 2 days but i did it myself (with the help of my best friend Ricardo) and boy does it feel good doing somehting like this yourself...it took me so long cuz like everyone told me, air tools wouldve sped up the process but i did it like our cave men brethren and did it with hand tools. but they wouldve helped significantly which the 2nd day proves cuz we drove around and asked some guy if he could let us borrow his air gun which he was cool enough to do and only charged me $10. after that everything went smothly...although removing and installing the rear assembly can be a b!tch to do but it was done and it felt so good putting sally back on the ground but i realized 2 things this weekend...1. friends are priceless (well not priceless cuz i did buy him a burger...although he did get crazy by super sizing it ) and 2. i need to invest in some air tools.

pics up soon

[arrozburner]

well here is sally and how she sits now...i love the ride although i mmay soften it a bit



and here are the tein springs and kyb's


couldve done better with the color coordinating...green springs, red struts and blue calipers

[arrozburner]

i finally have my black seat belts...not from an se but still look good imo



now i just need the rear and i'll be set.

You probably already told me already, but what was the donor car for those seat belts? Looks nice though!

Maybe you could keep the harnesses in the front and put the black belts in the rear to finish off the look.

thats a good idea...but i think the rear are different from the front...i think i might sell the harnesses though after i dye the rear ones...dont know yet.
