Hard decision, What should I do next??
As a lot of you guys know I have a 89 Hatch. Im just debating what I should do next to it. Should I get a JDM Front end or GSR Leathers for it? If I do decide to get the Leathers I wanna change the carpet before I put them in so just Give me your honest opinion? Thanks

I wouldnt get gsr leathers or any other post 4th gen seats for that matter cuz they sit too high in a 4th gen and u'll hit your head on the roof and on the door jamb gettin in and out...not to mention it throws off the driving position. if u need some new seats just source out another set of 4th gen Si seats (they are some of the best anyways)...jdm front end would be nice but I'd focus more on something else, like gettin suspension out of the way with camber kit and all that nice stuff...maybe a integra console too (best interior mod for a 4th gen imho)

if you're short they may be good fit, but I had em in a car before and they sucked...the stock Si seats are some of my favs ever in a car next to bmw/vw recaros...I still recommend a camber kit before things aswell...other than that I think the car looks great as is, nice and clean and simple, kinda like my old black Si...I'm so tempted to get another one

Good luck getting the EF9 front end in canada at this point in time. And if you order it from the states prepare to spend and arm and a leg. Honestly though dont ask others what you should do to your car decide for yourself because its your car in the end.

If someone can find me a 90-91 bumper in like 2 weeks time or before I actually find the JDM Front end then please LMK. Ohh yeah any colour but it has to be a D/X or Si model. Black Preferably

IMO i think the jdm 4th gen fronts are kinda played out now everyones gettin them same with the jdm crx front.
i personally think you should browes the net and get some ideas on what to do next and come up with something different than everyone else. theres more than just those 2 things(gsr leathers, and jdm ef9 front clip).
trust me you'll find something way better and new. and you wont even think of those other 2. just browse around and dont rush into stuff, thats actually how you usually make the biggest mistakes and regrets.
good luck tho man.
