Default 96 civic dx build(Lookn for opinions and answers)

So I got this civic like 2 weeks ago. Still need to register and get the "smog" for it. Its my first project. Im 17 by the way. So i was wondering If you veterens can help me on what i should do first. I know it need work.

So lets start off with my front end. The guy that had it before me kind of hit something. Thats why it has a silver bumper and hood.





What should i do with it? Or where should i go?

Next lets go to the Idle air control valve. People say i should take it off. The previous owner said he got it stuck to run. They say its the reason why my Check engine light is on.



What you think I should do? I know i need it. But letme know what you guys think.

Now let's check the motor mount. It's ripped.




Thanks for looking at my thread. Im just looking for opinions and whats good for the car. You can PM me. JUst let me know what you guys think. Thanks in advance.

so the car isn't silver? you'll have to get those painted which isn't cheap... if it doesn't bother you much, I might recommend waiting a while, save and get good paint work when you have money, and you may want a whole different color after a while having a honda, look at people's car's on here for ideas, I semi wish I hadn't gotten mine painted red again

try cleaning your iacv
