Re: (yurpduckie)
i wish i could have another lip but i put double sided tape unde rmy lip and one day i went to take it off and it started ripping off my paint i was like expletive. i even tryed using a hair dryer to make it come off easyer but it ripped off all my paint that the tape was on, you cant tell tho since the lips on. but that pissed me off

nice car, I like how the before/after pics in progress, loving the si rims
dont use a silencer at all, it hurts performance, just toss it in your garage.

Re: (96Civic_Coupe)

i heard the same thing but i drove on them for like 40miles and checked them all to see if they came loose and they are still tight as a rock and wouldnt tighten anymore. I dont think ill have a problem with them. they say they dont fit perfectly but they still work

just bought some ground control coilovers and soon buy some KYB GR-2 Shocks to go with them.
how much on average does it cost to install those on a 97civic coupe

Recommend losing the rays on the Si's pronto!
Also, you are not supposed to tighten the lug nuts 'til they will not tighten anymore. The proper way is to use a torque wrench and tighten them in a star like manner using the specified ft/lbs.
Doing this incorrectly can put severe stress on the wheel, brake, and wheel studs.
Just hate to see something bad happen to your project.
BTW, looking good...the Si's look tons better
