00 Civic Hatch aka My Little Spanish Thing

[andre3wap]

Hello Guys,

This is a low budget cosmetic build on my Cvic EK, I bought it from a guy on craigslist, it had a bad hit in the passenger side door, I had to by a body jack to get the new door to close properly etc. I did most of the body work myself and got a cheap paint job at maaco.

I still have tons of work to do on it, but right now the weather doesn't permit such, and I do not have a indoor garage to work on it. Whenever we get a warm day, I always make goooooood use of it haha. But I am waiting until spring/summer to work on it more.

much better than before, but I think you went abit crazy with the red bro ... spray the mesh on the grill black again, the fog covers black and the bottom grill on the bumper black aswell and it would look much much better

Yeah, I will be changing the engine in the summer, re-paint, seats, floor carpet..

it's funny you highlight that coz I was kind of iffy for a few days on it haha, then I realized that everyone with a RED Hatch was doing it that way, I guess I tried to be a lil different with my current pattern


Thanks Guys

LOL I was thinking a full B16 / B18 swap?

Boost It? that's on the top of my list, it's all or nothing for me

Looks nice man, nicer than my old hatch! If you ever get rid of that rear lip, I have some rear mudgaurds for you lol

I'd be interested in those rear mud guards, lol.

Hatch looks great, super turn around

Added some 15's to my baby

Enjoy,

The summer is coming up so I will be doing more work on her xD

 

[Wreckless Hype]

I'm going to have to agree, I think a little black up front would break up the red a little. At least the mesh in the grill and in the bumper. I like the gray coloring on the fog covers on most cars, even though I'm painting hem black on my black coupe XD

Overall, nice grab and nice work cleaning it up!

 

[Bhikku]

wow you really turned that car around, looks good!
