Default 1996 Honda Civic CX Build

Hey guys, If you've seen my Del Sol thread you see what's going on, but for those that haven't, I no longer have it anymore. Starting this thread for the new car, Car is pretty much bone stock with a good amount of miles on it. This car is definitely a work in progress, so bare with me. Looking forward to your guys' input and see where I take this thing. Thanks.

ENGINE:
- D16Y7.

ELECTRICAL:

EXTERIOR:
- Flat White Paint Job.
- Type R Rear Lip?

INTERIOR:
- LS Cloth Front Seats.
- EG Cloth Rear Seats.
- Skunk2 Shift ****.
- Wink Mirror.

SUSPENSION/CHASSIS:
- Skunk2 Coil Sleeves.

As time progresses, things will be added or subtracted to/from this list. If anybody has any EK Parts for sale, feel free to let me know.

Car is two different colors. Door needs alignment and the cambered look just sucks. But as long as you like it...

Semantics. Something needs aligned. That much is obvious. Maybe stick it on your "To-Do" list. And the bumper/hood needs aligned as well then. And the car looks two different colors to me in the pics. Maybe take better pics.

Is that an Ebay grill, lip kit and headlights I see?

Don't ask for input if you don't like what you get.

Imput and being a smartass dick are two different things.

Very nice hatch excited to see what you are doing to it. I have a BUNCH of money saved up towards my car. i want to get my daily and weekend at the same time. I already found the ek coupe i want, now i'm looking for a kouki/zenki s14 or a type-x s13 shell.

Got bored with the gunmetal already, Plastidipped white, then highlighter yellow sprayed over that, with hot pink splatter. Something different, I actually liked the way they turned out.
