i have alway love that car...how long have you had it?

I think thats your old sway bar on my car.. lol and its almost 5 years old...

ewwwww



dirty secrets....

glad you cleaned that up.. and goes to show you that anyone can do it... OC_civic didnt always have that superhero interior. His car was human at one point

no secrets... its all a big slow learning process.. they WERE approved harness manted correctly to the car you will note.. and the gsr leathers were actually pretty comfy...

interesting.. so everyone says HOW did you install the LEDs.. so i found some pics i didnt remember snapping.. here is how i did ONE of the extra LEDs.. maybe it will help all of you that are having such a hard time with it



ONE of my dim spots was the 60-80 mph area.. this is the install of the shaved socket in the cutout cluster housing

the light alone was TOO bright so i had to use this extremely high end light redirectioning cover (duct tape) to even it out.. it might look ghetto but it works FLAWLESSLY.. i made little light covers out of clear bubber tube painted on one side to replace the tape if it ever fails..but i doubt thats going to happen

running the wire OUT of the back of the cluster to tie it in to the other wires

to power the extra LEDs i tied them into the wiring for the top two lights..

hope that helps solve some of the great LED mystery..

Are those authentic Fog lights or JDM style fog lights?

 

[CiVIcCFAsST]

authentic i believe

 

[ShinsenTuner]

It's authentic fohsho, my nigg anthony don't play that s**t 8)


You ever thought of getting SiR bumpers? I think it would be a perfect finishing touch for the coupe.

Why do you have a camera mounted? Also, whats your best ET?

LOL yeah i thought about them but i think that instead im just going to eventually get all the molding and trim color matched.. but im really not sure.. its such a pain to keep it nice and black..

Why do you have a camera mounted? Also, whats your best ET?

because i like to video tape in the car?

 

[Jeegz]

IMO don't paint the moldings. i like the black. i think it would look odd with them color matched. Plus i love how this car looks and so do my friends. its f**king hot!

 

[DigitalShift]

Whats your best ET? If your not going fast its no fun to video..

its a nice car...pretty plain tho. very clean, and i mean that in a literal way. no scratches, dents etc.

 

[oc_civic]

go for it? it might look good. if u can get it color matched i dont think it would look half bad.
besides if you did that you would be "JDM". thats how the civics here do it!

as ive stated in the other thread.. we get it you obviously live in japan and obviously fail to see the point in modding a usdm civic with jdm spec parts.. excellent.. please refrain from beating that point to death in every thread you post in dont get me wrong.. i dont care if you like my care or not.. i just have no interest in debating the jdm scene with you in 9 different threads..
