I've never looked at a car that way but it does go perfectly
        Haha, that's very true! It's kinda growing on me. We'll see!

        white hood and this would be damn near perfect to me
        I actually thought about getting the Spoon mirrors and only using one. It'd be different, for sure! Plus, I could hang the other one on my wall or something. Haha

        one other thing, what happened with the dry sump idea? i thought that was a great idea and id love to see how that 'pans' out. so to speak.
        Ehh, I'm not much of a clear tail light fan, myself. Haha Thanks for the suggestion, though!

        With the dry sump idea, I had to quit my job because of a dramatic hour cut, so I'm currently unemployed. I might try to get it going once I get a good amount of money set aside again, but I've actually come up with another idea that would be free and give me another 1/2"+ of clearance, which is all that I really need. Besides, I'd love to spend that $2,300 elsewhere if at all possible. Haha

        Also, I don't believe I ever said that I went ahead and bought the UKDM power adjustable headlights and clear corners! That's right: POWER ADJUSTABLE. My car may be gutted, unbelievably loud, and completely impractical, but I'll be adjusting my headlights up and down on the fly.
        For those that aren't aware of what the UKDM headlights are, they're just like the JDM ones (smooth lenses, as in no 'nipples'), but instead of being plastic, they're glass, which is what I prefer.

            They are, indeed! I'm really happy with them. The quality and finish was excellent! Plus, they look great on the car.
            I'm gonna mess around with the sway bar settings on them to get the full experience. I've always seen the ASR/F7 combo as the way to go.

              Awesome. Eventually, I want to get F7 LCAs, rear Beaks brace, camber kit, toe kit and front Skunk2 UCAs.

                • You know this car is way cooler than the Tiburon, right?

                  • I feel sorry for anyone else who has an eg here, cause this is near impossible to compete with. Again, this eg wins.

                      Haha, I tend to think so. I really want to get the Tibs new wheels and get the fender work and paint work done so I can finally call it finished, but the Civic is too damned fun! And I NEED a Miata, so when I think 'New wheels, or Miata...', the Miata always wins. Haha

                      Thanks a bunch, man! I really like that picture, as well.

                      • I also think the tint really sets the car apart from the rest. dark tint on white cars ALWAYS looks good. and the single spoon mirror would look cool

                        • I think the blue sub frame brace looks good, when you posted the straight back shot I notice the white and blue of your car flow well with the white and blue on ur licence plate. Keep up the good work man!

                            • Sorry about all the bad stuff in the beginning -- the g/f, camera, smashed headers, etc, buuut good times are ahead. Car is looking rather nice. *thumbsup*

                              • just read through all 8 pages and all I have to say is WOW... i dont think your car would manage roads too well out here lol, i scrape header and core support everywhere on my DC4 and I'm not even near as low as you (tucking a little tire on 205/50-15). Major props to you for A) daily driving that car that low, and B) daily driving a modded honda.
