never before seen on CC, my 97 four door (56k no way)

[cgpEJ6]

I've been on this site for a long time now but I never made a thread for my car before and have only posted a picture of it once or twice when someone has requested one but I took some pictures of my car today and am pretty happy with how they came out so here goes. It needs rims and a drop pretty bad, I know that so you don't have to tell me (but I'm sure I'll hear it anyways.) Wheels would have come before the lip kit but my car was in the shop getting painted from an accident anyways so I got a deal on paint that I couldn't turn down. Anyways here they are, pictures were taken in Fox River Grove, Illinois.

yeah I think I'm gonna get some of the OEM fogs at some point but for now they are ok how they are, rims and drop will be there soon enough. It's just all $$$. As far as the rear lip goes I agree it needs to be adjusted a little bit but it's gonna be a little high no matter what, the lips were put on fairly recently so I still need to tinker with it just a bit.

looks super clean man. keep it that way. and cant wait to see it with rims and a drop. any idea what kinda rims you wanna get? same question for suspension?

I want to put some 16's on there, not 100% positive what kind though. I've been thinking about maybe some bronze C8's or C10's but like I said I'm not sure, maybe some silver or gunmetal 5 spoke rims of some sort. The only thing I know for sure is that I don't want white rims or black rims, just never liked them. As far as suspension goes like I said before, it's all about $$. I'd really like to get something nice like Tein Type Flex or something but I think what I will do is just get some S-Tech springs or something like that that is still a decent product but not very expensive as a temporary thing and then save up for a real nice kit. That way I'm only spending a little bit on something I'm gonna replace but will still look good in the meantime.

The red badge on the back has gotta go, it's killing the rear end. You already know you need a drop so Imma skip that.


Time for some boost or a swap. If my eyes don't deceive me that's a autotragic tranny, so the swap would be better. Looks clean though.

 

[Mr. Jollypants]

Why did you try hiding you automatic? You don't even match, your rear lip is WAY to high doesn't even line up with the rest.. The money you spent on your lips you probably could have gotten a nice pair of tails..

Your car though.

 

[Eran]

clean lookin car, but not feelin the jun lip .... hate it, always have, always will.

 

[entellect]

What kind of fog lights are those?

 

[charles_00Civic]

Like the lip, skirts and bumper dont match. Foggies are ugly. I had a euro dash too. Meh. I ahve the jun lip on my 00 sedan. I have the red badge too but it's on a silver car. Get some tints, a mugen grill looks sexy with the lip.

 

[SOHC_Civic_150i]

Fogs and lip not doing it for me either, but other than that, very nice ride! Would love to see it with some wheels and a drop! Love the 4-door

Yeah it's an automatic, I would like to have a manual but I think I'm gonna rock it how it is for a while and maybe swap it when my miles get really high, for now it is what it is though. I might do a mini-me swap with a Z6 head in the meantime cuz I can get one for free but we'll see. Thanks for the comments.

I didn't try to hide my automatic, I posted a picture of my automatic shifter didn't I. I only put a boot around it because it looks better that's all. If I didn't want anyone to know it was automatic I wouldn't have posted an interior shot. I know my rear lip needs to come down a little bit but only a little bit because of how it's made, the rear on a Civic is almost always higher.

What kind of fog lights are those?

I have no idea what they are called or who made them anymore, they've been on my car for a really long time now. Sometime not too far away I'm probably gonna get some OEM ones but I don't think they look terrible either, they look pretty good lit up.

**the pictures looked a little better before they were resized but even if you don't like the car isn't that a pretty awesome place for a photoshoot, they were all taken in the same parking lot, on 2 different sides of the building. I thought of rand0m when I took the second to last picture, seems like your style a little bit.

 

[c_diddy]

looks great

 

[Rand0m]

^ good lookin bro....your better than most here at takin pictures, just keep practicing

 

[Genuine Rolla]

Thanks, I ordered the front lip from www.jdmshit.com for $110 shipped. The fitment on it is excellent, I didn't have to modify it at all to install.

 

[ruff_ridaz99]

not really fond of the lip kit...needs drop and rims....hahaha...and you should've gone with a mugen spoiler instead..but otherwise it looks good!
