A few new mods...To my RR

[aparkinson]

First mod was that I changed the lights in my dash, All of them to RED after searching ebay for a while I found some bulb socks to cover each little bulb in the radio and hvac display. Love it----


I've also been looking at the fabric change on door panel DIY for a while now trying to decide if I should try it. Well I did it...


And I also wraped my E-Brake handle- I like it, needs time to soften up and stretch.

[illusionstwice]

so u spent the money on swapping everything from an Si, but u dont have an Si?


I like all the red lights. But the fact you are "looking" like an Si when your not kinda killed it. Sorry

[aparkinson]

Not everyone needs an Si, I just like the red lights to go with the exterior. I don't know why the SI owners think there cars are so much better, you guys try to knock on every one elses cars. I do what I want to my car for me. I like it and im fine with it, I don't need an SI to make up for something else.. Sorry

ummmmmmmmmm............I not once said you need an Si, should get an Si, or that Si's are better. I was trying to clarify what you did. I never saw anyone do a complete swap. Its a nice car, and like I said, I really like how u got all the lights to be red using those sleeves. At first glance I thought it was an Si. But you probably get that a lot. It just looks poser-ish. But you said u wanted everything to match the RR paint. So thats 100% understanable. Blue and red kinda clash anyway lol

[GETxERxDONE]

looks nice!

what sleeves did you use? and can you get them in blue?

[aznkp]

what bulb sock covers did you use? i really wanted to make all of mine red too... but i didnt want to deal with the headache of sautering it all. red sock covers would be amazingly helpful! can you post a link of which one you used?

[aparkinson]

Sorry so many people make fun of my car for not being an SI sorry I thought you were to. I appologize...

[sh33t_0f_p4p3r]

[Gr3y Goose]

dont you get mad when you redline and the fuel cuts off about 1200 before your shown redline?

doesnt look bad, you probably wouldve been better off just getting the Si. to each their own

[GETxERxDONE]

^ all of his other dash lights still would not have been red.

[Izzy]

The only reason I can think of that people assume you have an Si is the fact that your tach itself says "Si" on the bottom near the axis of the needle. Looks freakin' cool to have everything in red though!

[Dark.GEAR]

looks good and it looks like you did a decent job doing everything, although I would never do it...it just looks too one dimensionally plain now if that makes any sense. nothing but red and black....

[greenroom1988]

i think it looks very good. i have an si, and dont think any less of your car. my car looks the way it does because someone at honda decided thats how it should look. ur car looks the way it does because thats how you wanted it to look. thats what its all about!! keep up the good work!!

how bout a few diy's on the steering wheel, ebrake, and light color change? id like to see how you did it.

[mix]

did u do the steering wheel personally?

[1sole]

did you swap out the radio unit or did you use your stock ex radio and change the color? if so did you switch out the display unit?

[GETxERxDONE]

he prob just chanced the display piece.

[1chin3s3_b0i]

very nice interior..i like the ebrake

[mz_rigel]

looking clean!!

[Implosive_Disgorgence]

looks good!

im really liking the red stitching your steering wheel; i'd like to do mine in blue

[JchanFTW]

That's bad ass. I personally don't have a problem with the whole Si interior. I can appreciate all the hard work that goes into locating/buyings parts, and installing them. I wonder if IllusionsTwice bags on people who install Type R front ends on their Si. How about people converting their Si into a USDM Mugen Si? I don't see how its any different.
