Paradise Green EJ1
Hey guys I'm fairly new here to the forum.
Let me just start off about my car. I'm 19 years old, this is my first civic. I currently go to Michigan State University, so this project is currently going slow at the moment.
My dad and I have worked on my car for over two years as we speak. When i first purchased it, there was a substantial amount of honda cancer, and the clear coat was fading on the bonnet, and roof.
Here is the time I got the car.
Then paint came into the scene.
Then Tein springs, currently now on koni yellows and ground control sleeves with blackworks front and rear camber kit.
Swapped out the slipstream replicas for some BNIB rota grids with volk stickers (LOL), wrapped in some BFG KDW G-force tires.
Currently the car looks like this:
While I am away at college, my dad is going to cut off the rear quarter panels, and weld on the new patch panels, while removing the door moldings (still leaving the inserts there), and fully repainting the car again. I also got a Seibon carbon fiber hood for christmas as well
My current project over this break was to do a power steering delete, which I am done with, and the driver side wire harness tucked. I am almost done with that as well, just need to mount the harness to the fender, tape and cover up the wires.
Let me know what you all think!
Thank you.

Thanks guys. I have a video on youtube with my civic, it has close to 90,000 views lol! Check it out! It's titled "screwing around in my ej1"
By the way, do not mind the granny shifting in the video, it's because I still had to bleed some air out of my clutch, it was replaced recently prior to the video.

gl on the pass headlight tuck. it took me a good min to finish since im keeping ac and all the other things. i also tucked the fuse box under the dash where the passenger air bag is. im gonna make a cf tray since no one makes it for the del sol. also you should relocate the battery to the trunk, itll look more tucked.

I don't know dude, because I have a horrible oil leak somewhere. I'm hoping it's not my head gasket, or main seal. But around spring time, I'm going to replace the timing belt, water pump, and oil pan gasket. Hopefully those will be the problem I was looking for.
