I got some minty fresh GSR Blades off Craigslist and finally got a stock hood to put on my car. Also, bought the 98-01 all red tail lights (hard to find).

I always did like the Integra design--I used to have a pretty sweet '91 that I built into a very serious handling machine. The only thing I didn't like with the later years was the change to the individual headlight pods--if mine had been a '94+, I would've got some JDM headlights for it. Any plans for upgrading the engine--there are so many things you can do with those? The most awkward thing about owning both a low-slung sporty car and a 4Runner is when switching from one to the other--every time I got in the car, I was half-expecting my butt to scrape the pavement (LOL)! Have fun out there!
 
I actually just sold her on Sunday :( I miss my Integra, but insurance was too much. I never finished it either...I was planning on dropping it another inch on some Koni shocks and H&R springs, JDM front end, shaved spoiler and repaint the car champ. White. Then swap a GSR motor and turbo that *****. Sparco or Recaro seats and call it a day.

I'm thinking of getting an 86 or 87 Corolla AE86 once I'm done paying off the 4Runner and modifying her :)
 
Sorry to hear that you sold it--with all the claims those things probably get from racer-wannabes crashing, or guys stealing 'em, it's no wonder the insurance is ridiculous. My buddy and I redid the stock B18A to factory specs on mine, then I went through the suspension, replacing all the worn-out bushings and such. Then I added Ground Control coilovers on Tokico 5-ways, Suspension Techniques sway bars front and rear, and Kumho 205/40R17's on Enkei CDR-9's. It worked amazingly well--that thing could fly down a curvy backroad, which was my primary objective. I sold it a few years ago. The one I'd like to get, if I do another sport import, is the last Nissan Z before they discontinued them briefly (mid to late 90's, if I remember right)--I always loved that body style, plus it was RWD (WAY better than FWD for putting power to the ground). Good luck on your next ground-hugger!
 
Makes me miss my white (champions white I believe) 99' GSR. Such a fun car to drive and sadly I don't have any pics of her anymore either.
