Default Some new pics of the POS. Mini product review too.

It was a pretty decent day here in Jersey, so i snapped up one of my co-workers digicams and took a 15 minute "lunch break".









Alright, enough of this blatant whoring. Onto the reviews!!!!

Sparco Sprint:
This seat is one of the best bangs for the buck IMO. I picked it up semi used from HT member 95VXFrank for autoXing purposes.
This seat is very supportive and suprisingly comfortable, even for my 5' 10" 200lb azz. Only down side (for some) is having to make your own brackets to fit the stock civic seat rails.
Info - Sprint

Score card:
Quality -
Comfort -
Ease of installation -


JDMshit "Mugen style" front lip:
ABS plastic construction, easy installation, and a decent fitment. What more could you ask from something that only costs $90 shipped!?
Already hit it like 4 times and not a damn scratch. (Well not any visible ones. )
Install is easy as hell with the provided 6 screws. Yes, only 6 screws needed.
Info- Lip

Score card
Quality -
Fitment -
Ease of installation -

That's all folks...

Almost. I had a complete kit ready to go on, even went as far as cutting the grills out to fit the IC and piping, but i sold it all to buy this.




I have a new stock bumper that just needs to be painted before it goes on.

Did you have the real visions? I like mine. The only downside is with stock mirrors, you can check out people behind you. Visions have that convex glass that get rid of blind spots, but it has the "objects in mirror are closer than they appear" syndrome, so everything looks far away.


Car looks good, why call it a POS?

It's alot better since i modified the mounting points. I kinda had to turn them in an upwards direction, and re-drill two of the holes. I can actually see behind me now without having to duck down.

That front lip looks like it's flipped up in the middle a little. ??

You need some covers for those front license plate holes, but other than that I like it. Very clean.

Mirrors look good too.

Yeah it think it is. Still gotta mess around with it alittle. Like i said, it's not the greatest, but not too bad for $90.

Can't do it bro. In Jersey we have to have plates front and back. I just took it off to spare me having to black out the plates.

Damn, you must be squeezing into that seat then. The Sprint seats the the smallest seats by Sparco and I can't fit in them at all (6' 3" 230 lbs) and can barely fit in a Sparco EVO seat, but the EVO2 seat feels great, so that's what I'm sporting .

Lip looks good .

It's only a tad tight around my lat area. Not an uncomfortable tight, but a supportive type of tight.

Thanks for getting the lip to me so fast too.

Took too much effort to maintain the bling.
