Nice job saving it!

Your side marker is way to high though.

Front prob had coilovers or lowering springs while the back was still stock..
Nice job with the civic looks good I do agree though the light placement is a little high makes it look wierd..

Not feeling the lip or placement of sidemarkers, but it looks a ton better. Please keep us updated on your turbo build

well the smart one that had it before me had the front spring on the back and the back spring on the front....pretty smart huh? and i agree now that i look at other civics...the side markers do need to go a little lower...but i guess its too late now...unless i paint the car in the spring and find a set of fenders before then....i will update on the build as well....im a noob to the turbo world but i know plenty of people that can help
