[chris--s1993]

hi everybody. got bored and decided to make an account.
Copying this from another site so sorry if its a muddle.

hi everybody.
sadly sold my lupo the other day and have went and bought this civic a week or two ago,







[

the car came with a wkd bean tin and the kid who had the car sold me a debadge CTR grill thingy.
im planning on giving the bbs off my lupo a refurb and selling them to get coilovers asap. and then on to wheels and all that lark hopefully!


got some form of crap update.
gone and got myself a git big dildo of a gear stick this weekend haha.



little update. finally got my tow strap on last night


and a plaster sticker to cover up the crack in the paint. hahaha



finally got my coilovers through today!

just ta technix but better than nowt.
will be fitting them on thursday hopefully.


coilovers on!

car isnt all that drivable though cos a bolt snapped off on the lower control arm and cant get it out. tried using a bolt extractor drill bit. but the drill bit just got chewed up. going to have to take it to a garage i think like


got an update finally. got a jap front plate a month or so ago. tilted my spoiler but you cant see it in the pics and got new alloys!!


think it looks so much better than boring patchy steels like!


got my camera back from being fixed. got bored and took a few photos.








got a 5 panel mirror this weekend

no blindspots now. hahaha
and got my camera sorted and took some pics tonight.








The car failed its mot just recently cos of a shagged drop link and emissions. And my mirror?! Hahaha. Turns out he exhaust was blowing and messing up the emission readings.
So I got myself this cat back off ebay haha.


Il get some better pics when I can be arsed to get my camera out.
Alot better than I thought it would be for 159 quid like haha.

Painted my mirror while it was out haha.



Looks better than black plastic I suppose hahaha


And thats about where it is up to now. After Christmas I'll be getting the front bumper smoothed and resprayed to get rid of the plate holder holes and some cracking paint on the corner.
And I'll hopefully be getting a splitter soon if i can afford it hahaha.

Thanks man. And yeah, just not sure what hahaha. think Im gonna colour code some of the plastics when i get a hold of some paint. possibly change the interior and I wouldnt mind it lower too. haha. just need the exhaust tucking up abit. hangs way too low.

Wheels suit it very well, mirror and the knob... well, not my cup of tea really.

Thanks! and yeah Im getting sick of the gear knob to be honest hahaha. get too many funny looks with it

It felt ages away from everywhere. It was an hour train ride to Glasgow and there was one road on each side in and out of the town. We were on the bus for an hour on our way to millport and the guy I was staying with was like "if we had gone in a straight line, we only would have gone three miles to get here"

Hahaha no wonder I've never heard of it. Doesn't help that I have only been to Scotland a couple of times either

[chris--s1993]

Ended up ordering a mugen rep splitter the other day and it turned up this morning!
Got to painting it when i got in from work. Its just going gloss black for the time being because my cars colour paint is a chew on to find and im gonna have to order it online at some point.





Just needs a few touch ups and a good polish cos its looking abit dull at the minute haha.
only have these 2 crap phone pics. Will get some better ones when its fitted

[chris--s1993]

car isnt looking its best, hasn't been washed in nearly a month haha. but the splitters finally on!

[chris--s1993]

no major update, put my alloys back on and took my camera out. bit crap though cos I left my flash at home.








looks much better with the splitter on. hopefully my bumper will be getting painted and getting rid of them horrid drill holes, I tried lowering the back when I changed the wheels but only managed a few mm, need to get the backbox off to get some more room.
