Default Finally Semi Done Civic

So went through a lot of work to get this civic de-riced and into some what an ok shape. My girl bought the car for her with many things wrong. Its a 98 Civic EX with angel eyes, cracked carbon hood, unaligned front end... many... just take a look at the pictures. Car is somewhat decent and still not done yet but it will do for now. ALSO, i know front lip is not painted the paint started crackin so it goes back into the shop this following week.


went from...





slowly doing interior







body work...




to..
