Default My new and improved civic :-) *pics inside*

Well i've had my red 96 civic hatch with a stock gsr in it for awhile and i was finally able to get the color changed and some parts installed within the past 2 weeks. I just got it painted Starburst Blue and installed my DC header and Skunk2 intake manifold. Custom 2.5 inch piping with magnaflow straight through muffler getting installed this friday, cant wait

special thanks to _applepoop_ for helping me install that pain in the *** manifold

Nice paint, but I think this belongs more in the A/C forum.

i was really liking it till i got to the picture of the engine bay,..now i can understand leaving the engine bay the stock color if your car was black to begin with,..but come on man,..its red and you painted the car blue,..atleast flat black the engine bay if you arent going to color match it

Why do you have to take the motor out? Just detach everything from the firewall and the rest of the bay walls, cover the engine and have at it. The Superman colors look gay.

As odd as the color difference looks who really cares unless it's a show car? I rarely remember opening my hood to show others my engine when I had my Civic. I think it looks good!
