Default Bought my first mod for the hatch!!

The hatch has been sitting stock for the month I have owned her now. Last night made my first purchase for her.....





Won it on ebay for $100 shipped. Used but in great condition the guy said. Made by Arospeed and suppose to sound / look like the Apexn-1 exhaust. Really deep tone and also includes the silencer.

Coming within the month:
--coilovers
--c/f angel eyes
--JDM corners
--red / clear tails
--rear sway bar
--wheels....

After first of the year:
--GSR motor
--OEM style c/f hood

Not bad for a arospeed I had a arospeed muffler on my old civic hatch. It didn't sound bad but the stuffing doesn't last long and they get kinda loud. Looks very nice though, well worth $100

Sounds like a pretty good deal on the exhaust.

Why not save for the swap first and have a sleeper?

The projector are gonna be purely for looks. Your stock head lamps will give off more light at night time. I bought them thinking I'd get better lighting......wrong. I left them on only cause I paid for them.

I'll have the $$ for the swap with tax return and saving $$.

My OEM lights suck *** when it's raining at night!! The projectors can't be any worst.

Here's a pic of the latest carbon fiber angel eyes:

If they use H3 bulbs they are going to be worse than stock. H3 bulbs (which are used in most/all of those projector headlights you can buy for the civic) are Foglight bulbs, and have a short and wide pattern, ill suited for your primary headlamp. So unless they don't use H3 bulbs, then yes, they will be worse at night.

Get that engine first!!

theres something about these projectors that i really don't like, they sorta look like they dont belong on a civic, the Denji projectors look great on a civic in my opinion but then again, its your car lol....if i was to get those lights tho, i would probally look into making some custom smoked clear corners so they sort of match the lights if thats possible lol....

sounds like a nice set up you plan on having....

good luck

With my car being white and the headlights lining up exactly with the hood it wouldn't look that great with smoked corners. JDM corners, c/f hood and those angle eyes are for me. Like you said, IMO
