Re: ** The offical 96-00 civic 4dr thread ** PART 2
Bought an entire new fog set yesterday. Hopefully I can unload the harness and a couple other bits to recoup a little bit of it.
About to order my Lamin-X kit for them. Think I should keep them clear or go with one of the tinted blue or yellow kits?

Clear...
I have a bunch of 3M clear bra stuff I just wrote off. Mostly Kia front ends. Wonder how hard it would be to cut and use to protect my JDM lamps.

^ nice job Jay i will problably wont use my EK4 on track days this time...
@ brice thanks for the tip, i really have noticed that even with the sticker glued on that small hole there´s a chance it will come off
have started installing the OEM window visors, already had a set on the ex-EJ8 wich helped with installing but what a PITA... do you guys cut the excess rubber on the window moldings ?
you can notice that i already have the rear mudflaps, new exhaust(magnaflow) removed the DC2 cause the tip wasnt ligned with the bumper and because it was very restricted and the OEM roof rack is in place again, finally found a pic of it on an OEM catalog :

this has probably been covered, but i keep seeing european civic sedans with the 99-00 and the 96-98 rear... is this normal?
looks really clean. are the clips different than the ones on the usdm mouldings?

The reason is to accomidate the rear plate. The 99-00 have a short plate garnish where the 96-98 have a longer plate garnish fitting the euro plates.

I went off road during the last session at willow springs
Front end dug in the gravel and sent some huge rocks flying
IT felt like I had lost my whole front bumper lol
Lip is bent downwards with some stress cracks on each side
Needless to say, it needs fixing so might as well get d whole front end painted

You should of just used masking tape like all true racers.
There was a guy at acs with a 2013 maserati who decided to tape his front end up and used duct tape.
