^^^No it didn't fit 4 other LHD civics that were there. I ordered it for the right car. It clears everything it's just a sucky one it appears.

I bought it from JHP usa. They want me to take photo's of the fitment which I'll do tomorrow because my car is on my way back from work. But I guess I'll post the pics here. It's not like password jdm isn't all knockoff stuff anyways.

Well I've been working on my car for a while now and haven't made any updates.
But what I have done is:
fixed clutch line and bled it
ran my ground wire under the trans
made clearance for my strut tower bar(with a die grinder lol)
mounted my catch can bracket(which is important because I've waited for all the other stuff to mount it)
Started mounting my intake heat shield that I'm making as well as the intake

I've also bought a lot of stuff. I plan to post some pics of what I'm doing this week if I work on it. Here's what I can remember that I bought.
DEI gold heat tape
Ebay intake(I'm modifying it a lot)
honda parts
techflex for my harness
and something really expensive...=)

Well I worked on my car for a while today. I finished mounting my oil catch can which has held up progress substantially because a lot of things had revolved around where the thing would go. I also worked on my intake for a while today and got some of the stuff scribed for the last hole for the intake as well as the bracket. Then I wrapped it in DEI reflect-a-gold heat tape. I've got to finish and paint the box then finish the outside. Like it or hate it but enjoy the pics.

I was working on the brackets and the actual shield will stay a shield. I didn't show what I was doing to the bottom. It has a hole that will connect to the duct for the bumper. I will have it done in rough form today. I'll post pic by pic of the processes I'm doing to it. With it done maybe it will give you a better idea of where I'm headed with it.

well I built a radiator cooling plate. I used a Greddy one, which btw is $60 dollars lol. It took less than 30 minutes from when I picked up the aluminum to finished product. It's the same, if not better grade aluminum. I'll paint it up nice but not like the gay greddy one right beside it.

Well I started doing some of my tuck the other day. It's really going better than expected. Slow as s**t yes because I'm de-pinning about everything but I haven't ran into any snags. I also need to update the original page. I spent about 2/3 of my pay check on crap for that car. I'll post pics when it gets here. But here's a pic of my firend helping and just random wires.

Nice! I'd be scared to do a wire tuck, just because I think I'd mess up ONE wire and it all go down the drain....
