Wanted to thank HT for my progress on my civic coupe!!
I've been reading HT for a little over 4 years now, and I have to thank you guys for all the inspiration for my coupe. I bought it bone stock in '04 and its come a long way since then, I still have much more to go, but just wanted to show all of you the progress so far. '00 civic HX! haha 
Older pix, before new motor
HKS high power!
Out with the old, in with the new!
Spent a few hours tucking the headlight harness
I should have done the JDM pose, lol
'01 B8c1 with 56k
The whole swap took me about 8 hours total, first swap, but fairly striaght forward
most recent pic from cell phone... Si lip, Ls mesh wheels painted gloss black for winter!
thanks Ht for looking!
UPDATE!!! got my car back on friday, went for a little cruz and took some new shots...enjoy

Thank god you didnt waste your money on a B16.
Keep it like it is, maybe switcht he wheels from time to time but i love the look of the front lip being back and the rest of the car silver minus the hood.
Just my two cents...
