they are super overpriced when it comes to replacement body parts.

You car looks good all lowered. Im digging those wheels
thanks :thumbs up

That sucks! But, it's almost March, so it's not that far away ;)
I couldn't wait, ill end up upgrading in the future, i got a deal on all oem parts for now.

coming along pretty well.
Here's the latest.....my radiator core support came bent ( i didnt know because i had it sent to my parents house) but i decided to make it work since it took a month to get it in the first place. Im bolting it on anyway, so replacement will be easy. Haven't had much time to work on it but basically i got it together and just have to make adjustments to get the fitment just perfect.

also need a new hood latch, and my fenders are here, i just need to put them on and adjust everything to close up the gaps. pics time...

Lots of money shots FTW. Looks like its almost presentable again CHiLD. Good job bro.:thumbs up:thumbs up
Did the bent support work with you? Are those mounting points coming through the rad? Never noticed those before.

The bent section of the radiator support is workable, one of the mounting holes for the headlight isnt lined up properly and makes the hood sit closer to the light than it should. Otherwise its just fine. I'll sort that out later.

nice engine bay :thumbup:
thanks :D

Ive touched them up once before with some rattle can flat black but i was lazy and did like one coat and ended up pressure washing it and started re-chipping that paint lol. I'll get on it later. I still have some other things to re-fix, a new aluminum radiator, slim fan, and hoses, and hood latch. Im getting married at the end of the year as well so funds are all over the place.

Nice! now for the jdm front end :D
i'll eventually pick up the jdm headlights and corners :thumbs up

Nice EG. Do you know what you want to do like all the mods you want?
yeah, i have a pretty long list of things i want and even two different motor builds that i can't seem to choose between lol. Some of my main things are:

finish the minor problems
quick release/hub/wheel combo
kevlar bucket seats
new carpet and rear interior panels with sound deadening
real wheels
oem lip and either BYS lip or Spoon sports

quite a bit of money so it'll keep me occupied for awhile. Plus the woman wants a new civic Si and mods because she doesn't like them stock, so we'll see how it goes in 2010

good to see the project getting back together. It's really easy to say fuggit after stuff piling on like that. Good luck with the build and the new civic for the fiancée haha
