Well since I was sick the past 3 days. The past 2 I just called in sick b/c I felt like warmed over crap. But today I made it in to work and I buffed some small stuff like sanding the top and buffing in front of the headlights. I'm not gonna have a single dirt nib in it so I'm going down to the ground with nibbing and buffing. So I have a little more buffing to go on it. But here's the other side of the bumper. I like that it's asymmetrical.
I also sand blasted and primed the little pieces that hold the filler pieces for the tag holes. And painted the filler pieces. I'll take a completed pic. It won't really look too different but hell I'll do a comparison.

That's looks amazing. I always wished that 96-98 Civic's had somewhere on the bumper to mount an intake duct like that.

Sick. What lip is that? And how do you plan on making the duct functional?

Oh the duct is quite functional. I have quite the setup. Look at the rest of the thread. And the lip is J's racing.

Well I did some very small things to my car on the latter half of my lunch break. Finished building the bumper.


And a before and after of the bumper plugs.
Before:

After:


And for one of the biggest purchase on the car I bought a brand new J's racing gt wing for the car. I got a good deal on it off of NWP4life bnib. About $350 cheaper than off any importers site shipped.

Well I worked on my car today. I did a lot of blocking primer, and reprimed my door and tail gate. I'm very happy with the results and this should be the final block on them. Then I started blocking my primer on the left quarter panel. They need just a touch of work but look great for now. I didn't take any pictures because primer and sanding pictures become monotonous.

I guess about $2500 in just a few parts lol. But I'm gonna try and have it ready for sure by the Import Alliance summer meet in North Carolina. It's about 6 hours from me but I gotta make it.

Well I've decided that I want to to paint the ducts in the bumper with some SEM trim black. Sucks that I've got to take my bumper back apart and mask it back up in reverse but I'll be happier for it. I also decided that I want a 94-95 eg6 1 piece spoiler since I'm running the J's wing and I'll have to look at a stock wing so I guess it might as well be a nice one lol. Also the spoiler should ship Wednesday. I need a few more things. The list is shorter than before, but I can still think of things I want.

Personally I like the carbon fiber duct look. But that's just me. That's what makes this build so original, it's all YOU.

Looking forward to seeing the finished product. :thumbs up

I'm not actually painting the duct. Just the other vent in the bumper and the middle vent. I took a couple of pics of the ducts. But I took a quick pic of what I'm going for. I haven't scuffed the vents or painted them. But I'll be painting the vents with SEM trim black.
