Default I got a new Project Car.

I'll make it short and sweet and leave it up to you guys to ask me questions.

the jist of it is...

1996 Civic Dx Coupe.

Had a 99-00 Front end conversion and a plethora of JDM parts on it.

I helped my buddy build this car from the ground up.

...

.....Then it got stolen, my friend was heartbroken and was going to just let it go to a crusher. I couldnt let him do that so i bought the car off him for 500.00 and am currently rebuilding.

here are the pictures now.


Before:





After:







List of Mods:

Exterior Mods:
99-00 Front Bumper
99-00 Si Lip
99-00 JDM CTR Fenders
99-00 Headlights
99-00 Hood
99-00 JDM CTR Grille
99-00 SI Taillights
JDM Thin Moldings
00 LS Rims/Yokohama AVS tires
JDM License Plate Hole Plugs
"I Heart JDM" License plate frame with Mugen screws license plate screws
JDM DC2 rear "H" emblem
Mugen Twinloop exhaust


Suspension:
Skunk2 Coilovers
Skunk2 front and rear camber kit
Tokico Illuminas
Front strut bar


Interior Mods:
99-00 EX Guage Cluster
99-00 SI Head rest
96 EX Armrest
JDM CTR Shift boot
JDM Floormats
JDM Coin vent
JDM Airbag block off tray
Skunk2 short shifter
Spoon shift ****
Mugen oil cap

...


How it is now...















dammit.. *tear*















^^ HAH! dumbasses didnt realize that my friend had rare-*** (bought them before Password started mass producing them) mugen liscence plate screws on his car... ******* morons.

Either way this is how she sites now, i'm feverishly trying to get all the parts back to put this thing back together.. thank god they didnt take the stock D16Y7 that was in there so i wont have to buy a new motor.

Feel free to ask questions/comment/flame whatever. I'm sure i'll update as i re-build.

Dude wow....you didn't read, did you? Just glancing at the pics some of the things missing are: JDM thin sidemoldings, Airbag tray, coin vent thingy, shiftknob, radio, gauge cluster, etc.

Sucks man, really does but you're breathing new life into it
