Engine bay shave?

[JDM Sam]

Anyone here do a engine bay shave yet?
I'm considering doing it on my blue car, since I deleted the washer bottle due to lack of hood washer nozzles from the cf hood.

sorry for my ignorance but wire tucking means hiding all of the cables or something ?

Jesus Sam, that s*** looks insane. where are the wires and battery went ?

I am looking for one to build actually. I'm trying to figure out how to get a full JDM car over in pieces. I want this Charcoal Gray DC2 Integra Type R. The JDM itch is back.

Clean huh!? That's a full engine bay shave. I should have said shave, not just a tuck. Fixed title and first post.

Impressive Si Seor !!! Ive never seen anything like it..

I want to see some Proteges built to this level of craftsmanship. I am going to attempt to try b/c I'm really diggin' this style.
I know it's going to be very labor intensive already with all the rewiring.

A little thread Jack, have you even thought about putting the new EVO MR Wing to your Car ? oh lord they are so nice, better and nicer than previous EVO wings... your car already looked out of control with old evo wing, but the new one will make your car a true JDM Killa !!!

Well i doubt anybody here is willing to spend that much on their cars, only a few have putted a considerable amount of money into their cars here including proteges. but definitely that engine bay work is simply delicious, Ill pay to have mine like that....

Im still Wondering where the heck all those wires are hidden ? i just cant imagine where and how

Yeah I'm tired of the wingless, Evo 8/9 wing. I'm gonna run the stock 03 wing again for a while until I do some measurements. I already got the interior planned out: Takata, Works Bell, Nardi, Recaro, Sparco.

It's really not a lot of money involved to shave the bay, just time and labor. Materials are just wiring, and miscellaneous tabs and mounts. You gotta pull the whole front end off to do it properly. If you are paying someone to do it then that's another story.

Well but in your case you know how to do it, but people like us that dont have enough knowledge Labor means Cash you have to pay somebody to do it you know...

For Example this will look insane in your Beautiful ride Sam. I think its nicer than the previous evo wing design. Simply looks like the 03.5 Wing but taller.. Simply Beautiful to me..

Honestly, I have not done one yet (no time), I have seen it done on numerous Honda's, so I have an idea on how to do it on a Protege. I do see what you mean how it does take some knowledge and experience.

 

[JDM Sam]

Yeah, that's another car I want as well. I do like that spoiler too. The main reason behind the Evo8/9 spoiler on mine was that Pirana originally wanted a Spicy Orange when he had his, so I took it to put it on to see what it would look like.

You should try it in your car. Everything youve done so far in your car are music to lots of peoples ears... just wondering you are Japanese right ?
