Update! I was able to purchase a complete OEM CTR front clip along with rear bumper and hatch.

With that being said, I pulled the trigger on a set of wheels! I went with the Grams Lights 57C, I should have those by Wednesday :D

While I am waiting for parts I removed the ugly earth dreams intake pipe. I gave it to my buddy to mock up a jig to build me a custom one. It will be made of 3" stainless pie cuts.

Ordered a PRL High Volume Intake! I will post up pics as soon as I receive all my new parts.

My Swift springs were on back order that is why the rest of my parts were not shipped out. I figured I would get everything shipped together to save some $$. I bought my springs, shifter, rad and intake from Teknotik in Ontario if anyone is wondering :)

I was going to buy a set of aftermarket fog light covers for more air flow, but its cheaper to just modify the OEM ones. I got one side finished, now to do the other.

Nice work with restoring this car! I have the hybrid shifter in my Si and I like it. It has a little more side to side play compared to Acuity but other than that I'm happy with it.
Thanks, it will be going to the body shop in a couple weeks time. Still thinking of doing a color change, but not 100% sure if I should bother.

Nice, glad you like the shifter. I haven't even received mine yet haha, delivery time is saying Tuesday this week so will see :)

I mean it's already a salvage vehicle so color change is nothing to worry about. Make it yours. Most of the body is going to have to be repainted anyway.

Yeah exactly, the car is already depreciated in value. If I do change it, I would want red I just don't know what variant.

I purchased a Type R TC style grill today, only reason for replacing the OEM grill is to keep engine temps down. Hopefully fitment won't be to bad, I will be sure to post pictures once it arrives. I plan on putting my OEM emblems on this grill as well.
