After flat blacking my bumper

Why you have flat blacking your bumper??? for repaint the entire car?

[JustSomeGuy]

Mainly cuz there was a bunch of pretty deep scratches, so I wanted to sand them out and get em covered up.

[Tippey764]

I would also imagine because its the wrong color lol

To bad you aren't closer or i would just give you a free set of 9293 hubcaps in perfect shape

Can you post up some pictures of the gauge cluster?

[JustSomeGuy]

J-Spec gauges look just like ours except for Kmh/mph deal but here ya go.

What does the catlytic converter overheating light do in a USDM car?

Also theres no check engine light on that cluster lol.

[JustSomeGuy]

the cat overheat light is where the seatbelt light is.

Update: Getting ready to sand and flat black the entire car. I'm planning to take my time and do it as best I can. I'm planning to do the DIY headlight mod and paint the housings black as well as use the night shade stuff and tint the tailights. I bought a set of wiseco forged pistons on ebay for 265 NIB ( Piks coming soon as they come in ) for the f22a. After I murder the car out black, I'm gonna be building a f22a-t mated to the h23 trans that is sitting in my garage.. Piks coming soon.

Update: took some mint condition seats out of a 95 prelude i have taking up space in my backyard and put em in my accord. 2 bolt holes were exactly a half inch off so i drilled\tapped new ones but they are in,solid, look good and they comfy as hell. Eventually lll get my car flat blacked and then i can convert whole interior to black.im posting from my work so ill post piks tonight

welcome good start!

[Daheavyking]

Great canvas to work on. Good luck with her!

[Tippey764]

the cat overheat light is where the seatbelt light is.

But what does it do?

Does is work as the seatbelt light would since its in its spot or does it just do nothing at all?

Yeah it works as the seatbelt light

So as you all know, I told you guys I was taking the seats out of my 95 prelude and putting them in the accord. Doing that gave me the idea of converting my whole interior to black so I looked up the diy on here and got started. I Did the dashboard, center console, and added a oem ITR shift boot fresh from local honda dealer.Rest of the piks will be up prolly tomorrow after I go get the 240sx rims I'm wanting to put on my car. I'm planning to paint the rims black, the car black, smoke the taillights, and do the diy black headlight housing with some 8k hid's.

After it dried:


Tomorrow when I'm done putting it back together I'll post completion piks.
