Tried something new! blacked out latch cover

[03civichatch]

well i haven't seen this on an ep3 and seeing some ep's with the carbon fiber hatch and the stock latch made me try this
please tell me what you all think of this

(A) for effort.
I think though if you have a CF hatch and kept the latch cover the same color as the car it would be a tad cleaner.

ya i agree with you, but the cf hatch is what 500 bucks? my sheet of vinyl was 5 lol.

i just wanted to see what it looked like and i used a vinyl so its easily removable but i like the look of it so its going to stay at least for a while

Looks like you put it on with out painting it. I would just leave it stock looks weird like that.

there was nothing to paint, its a flat black sheet of vinyl(sticker)

dont really look good, makes your car look like a lower model civic with trims that are unpainted.

yea, good job, but i think it looks better stock

[talonXracer]

I think the rear glass would look worlds better, flow better, if it had a sheet metal surround about the same shape as the blacked out section on the inside of the window.

I also think that closing in the rear side windows and making it even more van looking would be better

i like it a lot...i say do that to the door handles and the sideskirts and take off the si badge and put on a DX badge from another civic...MAKE A BASE MODEL!!!!

looks like an EP2 now. When I was in Sweden and Finland last month, there were a TON of EP2s that were like that. Nice body colour, then matte black latch cover, mirrors and doorhandels.

I know it is vinyl I said it LOOKS like you put it on without painting it.
