Nice weather in Jersey...56k no way.

So I was out and about in the Civic today and decided I would snap a few pictures...check em out. Still need to install the JDM headlights, OEM fogs, gotta order my type R lips, doors have to be finished, and side skirts have to be painted and reinstalled....oh yea and I need a hood seal for the front

 

[rei]

are those exhaust tips in your rear bumper!?

 

[Kihun_Cha]

im sorry but.. uh.................... dats nasty
is this for show only?

i dunno how u drive dis around w/o tail light

 

[douggiefresh]

Exhaust tips? Ummmm no, they are tail lights.

I drive dis around with tail lights. They are in the bumper, and yes I show it.

 

[imeonic]

what are you dropped on?

 

[douggiefresh]

Air ride, all four corners. Used to have skunk2s with Tokicos.

i dont like the tails, but bonus points for originality! good job on the front end, it came out pretty clean, and i have to say that is a sick ass drop, thats my favorite part

 

[Dr.Anus]

Hmmm, not diggin the whole back end, looks like a show truck; but to each his own.

 

[tye]

damn thats low, not feeling the trunk, but love where the plate is haha!

 

[douggiefresh]

Thanks for the honest comments guys, I appreciate it good or bad! Honesty is the best policy lol. Yea the drop is sick, thats my favorite part, it still handles damn good to so im happy about that...I was taking turns at 50-60 today and it felt just like it did on the Skunks....

Yea the front end looks good, the no wipers really cleans it up, and im glad I decided to part ways with the body kit...really takes it back to the clean look. I think im going to go with a different set of tails, might mold some tails into the bumper to clean it up back there.

I love the shaved trunk man...looks g00d....keep up the g00d work bro. always liked show cars...!

 

[TippinOver]

i like it man

i've only seen work in progress pics, cant wait to see it done!

 

[douggiefresh]

Thanks guys. Yea the progress is coming slow but its getting there. I still have to re-intsall the interior. I have all painted interior plastics (a-b/c pillar plastics, stewart warner gauge pod, stewart warner bezel pod, roof trim, and dash side panels), two tone leather seats (white and gray), and a few other goodies. Also waiting on a few exterior parts to come in the mail so I can install them, and I need to pick up a new front bumper....doesnt show it in the pics but the one on there is pretty beat up.

I think I saw that rear end shot getting flamed on in HT's ricer thread. Dude that car actualy needs the body kit back on.

 

[Mr. Lin]

the frontend is clean.
the rear... not so clean.

 

[soswank]

how much have you spend on it so far?

 

[tienr]

i saw the front of car, and i was like, dayam, clean car, and sick drop.....then you showed pics of the back....and uh, i went limp....something doesn't complete the rear, like stock taillights, but i can appreciate the work

 

[cgpEJ6]

not my style but the craftsmanship looks good at least. I think you could have found something better to do with the taillights though if you were set on converting them. Those lenses just don't really go with the rest of the car in my opinion.

 

[douggiefresh]

Whats HT's ricer thread, if they want to bash my car thats cool...most of the people who do it drive stock cars anyway so...lol....

I have spent way to much on it so far....

No the bodykit is not going back on, kits suck in Jersey, in weathered areas, in general.

 

[NOFX]

Well, very clean work, but I'll agree with Dr. Anus, it does look a bit too much like a mini0truck for my tastes. If only there was some other kind of rear lighting instead of those bumper lights. A shame too, I really like the '99-'00 coupe tails and think the red and clear would look nice on your car.

Thanks for not threatening to ban us for saying we don't like something on it though.
