Shortly after we bought the car. We got it from a dealership after trading in our 2006 Civic EX coupe. Yeah maybe a downgrade but it was all about debt reduction. I actually think I like the simplicity of this car better and I always prefer a stick over the auto anyhow. The car had 160k miles on it but runs like a top and the engine is strong.
The car had some minor damage on the passenger side when we got it and then my friend backed into it with his Prius and rubbed the pass fender so we decided to have it fixed. Just for fun we had them throw on some stripes. The blue is a Honda blue though I am not sure which one exactly.
Picked up some solid gray Del Sol seats locally as the stock seats were squeaking badly and driving me nuts. I love these seats. They sit about an inch lower and are slightly lighter than stock.
A shot of the car with the 99-00 tails on it
here is a pic of the engine bay
For the future:
My Momo boot and knob will be here next week.
Shock and Springs. This is my wifes daily driver so nothing crazy, probably 1 inch drop or 1.5 inch at most.
SiR front lip.
Wings West rear lip spoiler
WS2 Exhaust, a header (DC Sports I guess) and Magnaflow converter.
I waffle on some of these decisions as this was designed to be a cheap car option with just some inexpensive tasteful upgrades. But I am a car nut and can't help myself. I would love to do more such a nice header from Bisi, HyTech or SMS along with a cam and compression increase. The problem though is I have another car for which everything is 3 times as expensive
