Dude, I would kill for a clean EK in that color. It's pretty damn rare and sought after among the boards.

Fix the headlights, get some konis or tokicos and ground controls with extended top hats, either boost the D or get a b/k/h motor. Get some better seats the stock ones suck, get a cluster with a tach, and get a front lip. Thats a costly start there.

alarm/kill switches/any other security, ex cluster if it doesn't already have one, head unit/cd player, drop it, volk wheels(or rotas if you are broke lol), lip, duckbill, the headlights look all faded and junk, clean them up or get some sir/ctr headlights, maybe get some sir bumpers?, repaint your windshield wipers black, and all the trims, clay bar the entire thing and make her look as sexy as possible

wow, good stuff!

so definitly drop it, one way or another. what mirrors now? lip, i'm down. black housing headlights?

cluster is a given, i have an h22 sitting around that would be the candidate to go in it.


Heck, i'll sell it. Something like 3700 or best offer?

I looked through the whole midori EK thread (14pages) and not sure what wheels I really like. I'd hate to bandwagon and throw rota slips on it, but i'm too cheap to look at anything authentic...

F bandwagon whatever. Do what you like. Thats what im doing this spring, rotas. I dont like spending $1000 something on just wheels. No one except on honda-tech is going to know the difference anyway,looks basically similar for a lower price.

Alright, master list in no particular order...


- Lowering kit (most likely ground controls)
- Wheels (16" ?)
- Spoon Mirrors (ya, im down with those!)
- Front Lip (type to be determined)
- Headlights
- Grill
- Loose the ghey fogs
- Carbon hood and duck bill (maybe)
- Cluster
- Paint Wipers/Clean Trim

-Swap


man, the list grows quick! Maybe I will sell it and focus on my red allmotor ek...
