ya i would definatly look for a wrecked car...
go check out a local junk yard and search around for a wrecked car and ask them how much they would charge if you pulled all the dash pieces ya want...
and at least this way you would know how everything goes..... just an idea

no way in hell i would buy everything new from honda! your talking about ALOT OF MONEY!!!!!!
and IMO no matter how nice you want the car to be it will never be worth that price you pay for NEW. because just about 90% of the parts you need will typicaly only have LITTLE OR NO wear on them from being used. because not only are you talking about each small trim panel your also talking about every clip every nut, bolt screw... you better off geting a wrecked car to get the parts from and bag every screw and bolt and do your best to label the bags... that way its ALOT easier to reinstal everything!

at least if you get all the parts from a wrecked car youll get most if not all the parts you need to complete it..... and then if any of the parts are worn/cracked or what not then you can either search for those FEW parts on ebay to get them cheap or if you want to spend money then buy those parts new. just be sure to take pictures of the donor cars vin numbers, paint codes in the door jams or what not. that way if you do buy parts from dealership they SHOULD be able to look up the codes and such for the new parts to match.
