I know. They had the thin foam black headliner material, but I figured if I was going to spend time on it, I wanted something a little off the wall. The wheels are some old enkei model. I'm not sure which ones. I found them on ebay with damn near new tires for $400 shipped. The kid that had them before spray painted them black, so I had them sandblasted and painted black with satin clear.

As soon as I can find a carpet for this pile, the interior should be done.

I suggest doing every different section in a different design/color. Only a blind person would ever buy it, but it'd be ugly as ----.

I would have stuck with black headliner personally, but this is good to know for redoing mine someday.

No, but I should. The first attempt was when Austin and Colin came over, and we all went to the fabric store like a family. The bacardi fucked up our mission though and we had to trash the fabric. For this second and final round, I called my mom over to help me. Having my mom over got me in that Martha Stewart frame of mind, and we conquered it.

I put the headliner in tonight, and there may have been a reason honda put a light colored headliner in these cars....to make them seem bigger than they are. All the dark colors inside are going to make the car feel like a go kart inside.

Well, now you can say that your mom helped you build the car. That always impresses people.

Didn't think about that. Always wondered why the CRX interior couldnt have just been all black. Still will probably throw in a black headliner though. I'm hoping the process won't be too different for this vinyl ---- they used instead of cloth.
