nice hatch.... how much you pay for it?

ive wanted a hatch but hard to come by a decent one for decent price....

only one i found was 1200bucks which was a few weeks ago. no cash at the time so it sucks... o well... one day ill have a hatchback.

also did you get your 300bucks back from the guy for the front end? next time just remember NO CASH GIVEN OUT TILL YOU SEE THE PRODUCT! one moto to live by


x2 also while the dash is torn out why not swap the center console/ac fan box to electronic to 99-00 as well

 

^^^^ Why do you think I was talking about the CTR climate control? LOl well i would tell you how much I paid for it but you guys would hate me. LOL Kidding honestly I paid 200 for it, clean title mind you. And no never got my money back.

 

$200? Youre right, i do hate you....go play in a fire

 

wtf you never got your money back! thats some BS. id file charges on his @ss!

 

I dont have his name or anything, and I still got my bumper, fenders and headlights just never got the hood out of him, so I ended up ordering a CF stock style hood then sportcompactonly.com screwed up and sent me 2 anyways so I sold one and basically got my money back. Im not to worried about it in the end it worked out great. and greddy last time I played with fire it didnt work out so hot lol, well actually it was pretty hot but not in a good way.

 

o ok.... i thought ya didnt get anything, by bad...
definatly lucky guy for getting the hatch! i am jelous!

im just suprised the paint was that good on the car! looks like he had already painted the engine bay black and did all the door jams to match that weak @ss baby blue exterior.LOL

how was the body lines filled? just bondo.LOL


i know when i paint my dx im gonna hate all the door jam and engine bay painting!

 

Yeah the door jams were already done and the engine bay was done to a degree, So I stripped the engine bay down and painted the engine bay and as you can see the interior then I shot it all with POR 15 Gloss black, I love that stuff I have been using it on my 79 camaro as well. I figure the black engine bay will break up the phoenix yellow nicely. Plus should be easier to keep clean then a yellow engine bay.

 

o ya. plus the black will look nice with a black valve cover give it kinda a stealthy look.
im going to paint mine a gunmetal which I HOPE will stay decently clean. i hope the custom paint doesnt cost to much... im not sure if my wheels i have have any metalic in them or not but i would like to add alittle sparkle to the color if it doesnt. ill price and have the paint mixed this winter ready for a spring paint job.

 

I found out the paint just to do the hatch is going to cost about 300. Not sure I will probably wait til like i start school to see if I get a discount in the collision tech class at school.

 

So instead of scrapping the coupe (not really scrapping it but dismantling it) I am thinking about doing the hatch as a CTR show/race. So instead of of doing a DOHC VTEC perhaps a LS turbo? wont have the full CTR authenticity but will be way faster. what do yall think?
