    Appreciate it. Speaking of color matched, I plan on bondoing some severe damage on the license plate area of my front bumper from a previous owner then completely respraying it factory red. There's no better time for a front lip than during a respray because the paint will be a perfect shade between the lip/bumper. Thinking aloud here, but you guys get the idea.



    update i found this

    Love how the new wheels fit. They're absurd, in a good way

    Thanks man. I don't mind the camber look, I think crazy pulled rear fenders look bad in most cases.

    Some more daily run around pictures of the car.

    I recently ordered rear adjustable toe arms, my toe is INNNN on the rear really bad. Not killing tires but I'd rather have the peace of mind.

    I have a little more camber on my drivers side than my passengers side, need to adjust that out. Not sure how long my tires will last lol, but we'll see.

    I get tons of people at work who go crazy over it going through the drive-thru. Old muscle car guys asking "if the back axle is broken" lol, and "the wheels are falling off." I love it, lol.

    Been actually driving and enjoying the car some considering. I'm reverse raking pretty hard, front can't go down anymore, so looks like I need to raise the back a little or something.

    Contact patch, lol.


    Some random pics of me on my daily runabouts with friends and whatever.

    Looks rad as is. Leave the height. No point in dropping it another inch or whatever if you cant drive it without destroying things.

    Appreciate the kind words, this car seems to be finally taking shape. I'm really debating pulling lock rings on my coils for more low, but I'm unsure. With my camber the way it is I'm sure I could tuck lip just a pinch. On the contrary, the gas tank is already getting scuffed up, and I'm a pan killer, so I might hold off. At any rate, I'm done spending money in large quantities for a bit, the car is pretty close to where I want to keep it.

    Plans for the future, if I need to just throw something out there is ..

    - Replace doors with less hammered junkyard red doors
    - Minor bay work, clean up primarily, maybe some light tucking (maybe do that timing belt and water pump that are nearly 18k miles over due.....)
    - Body filler large bumper imperfections and paint match them

    Otherwise, I'm open to suggestions. This is a Civic, so there absolutely is such thing as "too much" in my opinion.
