New to honda world
Hi I just got this honda 98 ex about 6 months ago...
this is first when i got my car
then with a tint and front type r lip and a costume exhaust and exhaust pipe
(I cant find a photo with the exhaust on it)
and now, I lower her on tockio whites n maxspeed springs (1.75/1.5 n it is a smooth ride) and four Rh Alurad AD Cuprad rims 15" (anyone heard of that brand before?) and 5mm universal spacer in the front/ 10mm H&R spacer in the back (the wheel have only 35mm offset, so it didnt fit), I also clear the headlights too.
those two are phone camera pix, my camera was lost a while back, i will post better photos when i have some more times
all work are done by myself and couple of friends help except the tint and the exhaust, oh and the alarm system also done by the mechanic.
now that I lower my car, what should I do next? I am going to school to learn how to swap and rebuilt engines, so I am gonna swap the engine later (b18c or b16a), no engine mod for now, any suggestion? anything would help lol

Re: (jasony0630)
yeah, i might do the 99-00 conversion later and as for slamming it, i might need to fabricate the fender and the back cuz i have spacers for front and the back so the wheel wont able to tuck in the fender

Re: (jdmer4life)
thanx everyone, as for fog light, i think i a will get it as soon as i get the front conversion done, hopefully in a few wks, and oh, i have an alarm, that was the first thing i got, being living in California lol i think I will first get the front conversion done-dat seem to be the most popular- then fog ligh and back light, and I think i am getting the front light tint, and i will get the white light. I agree with you guys, i dont like the foglight that much either...
oh and any suggestion for swap? I am thinking about b18c1, how hard is it to bar it over here in cali? thanks again

Definitely the WRONG reason to do anything to YOUR car.
It looks decent so far.
Before you get HID's like you want, fix those bumpers.

To do the 99-00 front you'll need more than just a bumper.
99-00:
Bumper
Headlights
Hood
Fenders
Grille
-for better fitment-
Radiator support
Fender stiffner
