Hatch project has finally started *Many pics reduced in size*
Just to fill in on how it started I had a 98 Tafetta White Civic EX Coupe with a 00 Si front end conversion, black housing headlights, carbon fiber hood, black mugen lip, OEM fogs, 16" Royal Gunmetal Rota Circuit 8s and a lot of other things done. Unfortunately it was stolen off campus and was recovered 12 hours later, stripped. So with my insurance check I bought a 94 Milano red VX Hatch and started upgrades.
Within the first two months,a JDM D15b, JDM tranny, and P08 ecu (Thanks to Darius at Adspeed) was thrown in with a Carsound high flow cat, AEM short ram intake, and an Invidia N1 exhaust. Also, I installed 8000k HIDs, 15"Royal Gunmetal Rota Slipstreams, a carbon fiber Spoon spoiler, Vision amber corners, cloth seats out of a GSR, viper 791xv alarm, and a full car audio system.
In addition I purchased Omnipower street coilovers, Brembo Xdrilled/Slotted rotors, an Omnipower camber kit, black housing headlights to reduce the glare from flutes in the factory headlights, and Wicked Tuning LCAs (Thanks to Corey at Honda Works for the installation of the suspension - due to siezed bolts, bent rear passenger lower controller arm and subframe).
(Before it was lowered)
And as it is now:
On the way is a polished lower tie bar, mugen style ABS front lip, and a type r style ABS rear lip. In addition, OEM foglights, Spoon mirrors, and mud flaps will be ordered very soon. I am also going to wire up the city lights that came preinstalled in the headlights. I am still considering if I want side mouldings.

I am considering lowering it more, I just dont know how much. I know I am going to drop the front down to the top of the tires, but I dont want to go too low because of the lips I am putting on.
