Default Starting Up

I'm new at the forum .....and I have a civic HX 98 ....As a grad present my aunt wanted me to choose a car.....(in the range of $1000-$3000) Otherwise I would be driving a S2000 .....so I looked hard for a 6th generation civic.....I wanted an EK but they were expensive.....but I got lucky that one of my friends father was selling his 98 HX 'cause he had too many cars...It was cheap way to cheap and was in a great condition..."$2,200" ...."awesome" said my aunt....so I drove the honda back home.....I have plans for this car....and I want to start with the exterior....and one of my priorities is to change the headlights and add this lip (the one that appears in the last civic) and I was wondering if one of you guys have one that I can buy.....here are some pics....

I say start out with a full body kit, paint your interior pieces red, get a wing big enough to fly, gst some msd spark plug wires, paint your valve cover, and call it a show car

2200 isnt a bad price. Just find out what your finances are like for a swap and weigh out your options. GJ on the pick up

hey man great car looks like a good start
i'd say keep the stock motor since the gas prices are going up like crazy.
but anyway that lip looks like an ek4 lip you can probably find one in passwordjdm.
good luck with it and post some more pictures
