Thought I'd start a project thread on my NHB FN2 GT, which will be a demo car for the company I work for, Jap Performance Parts/Carbon (JPP/JPC).

I picked the car up for a tidy sum with only 32k miles on the clock:



Within 2 weeks of ownership, we were already removing the Fuel Cap (without damaging any of the clips):




As per my newbie post, we can refinish any non-porous trim/material in a wide range of finishes. So within the next 7 days the cover will be back, and I'll update this thread.

In the meantime, I added a Mugen Oil Filler cap:



Thanks for reading, and stay tuned for more updates very soon.

Took delivery of a MR JP's HID kit today, 55W 6000K with additional side light bulbs, which I will be fitting tomorrow:



Just had news that the Flap is done and will be ready either tomorrow or Thursday. Will also get some proper photo's of the car up soon.

Thanks for reading.

Is that an official Mugen Oil cap? No snobbery it's just the unofficial ones have been known to explode in your engine bay as they can't take the pressure like the proper Mugen ones.

Firstly I apolagise for the quality of the photos, but works been so hectic I can't bust the SLR out until tonight/tomorow/Sunday (delete as apropriate).

May I introduce my new Carbon Effect Fuel Flap...







May I remind you this isn't a vinyl/sticker or a wrap. It is a chemical process that refinishes the trim in an effect, which is then hand polished to bring you what you see above.

I'll get some better photos of the car and the carbon flap up as soon as possible.

Looks great!

Also interested if you can do other colour and door handles too. I've been looking around for somewhere that can do mine to match my smoked chrome rages for a while now...

Cheers, the dipping process can be done to near enough any material as long as it's non-porous and not too flexible. Size limitations are still to be discussed but we can do alloy wheels so handles, trims, rocker covers etc are all good to go.

I will get a link to all the finishes we can currently offer up as soon as possible.

The Fuel Flap's are going to work out at £40 inc. return delivery. This means, you send your flap to us, we process it and then send it back to you via TNT. This should only take between 7-10 days. If you would like more infomation, head over to www.japperformancecarbon.co.uk or our facebook page: www.japperformanceparts.co.uk - Automobiles and parts - Crawley, United Kingdom | Facebook

regards, Jas

I feel like I have abandoned you guys, especially after the shots of the fuel flap.

I will be able to go through in more detail tomorrow (when I'm back in the office) about the dipping process, costs and what we can do.

In the meantime here's an up to date shot of the civic, managed to get it in while the workshop was relatively empty (apart from the SG9 STI Forester anyway). Although I have now managed to clean it since this was taken



Regarding plans for the civic, I'll be fitting a DC5 Brembo setup in the next couple of weeks with possibly some new wheels and lowering springs as well.

Will keep you posted :cool:
