New Pictures Of My Red FD

I just bought this Shift Boot set on Ebay.. They will stich it in any color you want, and it looks great. Other than that just tell me what you think of the car..Thanks

Hey, is that a CD-400 source unit? I have the same deal, and about the only thing in your interior the green backlight matches is your PFC.

I like the shift and brake boots, they match your Base model seats. Do you have a link for the seller? I'd like to check those out.

And did you get your wheel rubbing issue fixed?

Yeah its not rubbing anymore, and yes thats the same head unit. My battery went dead thats why it is on the green setting. I like the orage better. I am also getting my seats redone at the end of the week. They are going to make the outsides Black leather, the insides Charcoal suede, and stich them in Red. I cant wait!!!

Here is the link everyone for the boots http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWN%3AIT

Mfanto,

Thanks for the link.
If the seats come out as nice as the boots that would be great.
Don't forget to post pics. Nice stuff.

I think it was about $70.00 for everything. I think that is a good deal. The boots are made of real leather, and they have a carbon fiber look to them. I love the stiching it is very suttle, but a real headturner..

Very nice car. Subtle touches, but very sleek and clean looking (inside and out).

I like the car in general. What year is the nose?

I think the SSRs look good.

The one aesthetic I question is the black painted badges. The SSRs are so "chrome" that the basic colors of the car are red and chrome with a very minor black (the chin spoiler and the door handles). IMO, the badges will match better in chrome.

Question...

What is wrong with the front right rotor? There is a deep scratch that seems to be at the same radius as your drill holes. I'm not an engineer (mechanical) but I would worry that the scoring could lead to a broken disk.

Overall, I think it looks good. Nice and clean.
