Default 97 ek hatch project 56k(go wait for the o.c.)

Well i picked up my new car a couple weeks back when i got it it was basically stock but the windshield was shattered and needed some work. i.e. new window post, and a mirror yet to get

Plans include:
new imola orange paint job(hopefully by summer)
some rims hopefully in a couple weeks(yet to decide what exactly)
and to boost the **** outta the single cam

well heres some pics i snapped real quick today sitting on some neuspeed race springs, mugen front lip, and a wanna-be spoon sports cf duckbill. let me know what you guys think.










Pic of mine with my roomates 4 door(process of de-ricing)


Yeah like i said its a project

i must suggest replacing the front grill as a cheap quick way to rid the last of the cheap stock civic body characteristics.
