Default kcjohnnyboy's Daily Sedan and Project

Here is my daily driver Honda Civic sedan. I'm pretty much done with adding parts to the outside, I'm satisfied with it. Some engine appearance upgrades will be added once I get time. Until then, here are some pictures

















Comments are welcomed

Looks pretty good. MFactory products =

I think just fix that fender and body match the grille trim piece and DIY black headlight housings and it would be hard

id ditch the fake front lip.


grill looks ok.

sus and rear combo looks good.

good start...id pick up an sir lip since you're slammed. they are polyurethane so they wont fck up. that one you have now will crack easy since its abs. just a little info.

i personally like this front lip instead of the sir lip. and this was way cheaper if i had went with the sir lip route.

ctr lip, no? or is that a replica?

Anyway i like it a lot, especially that rear end. Looks better than the 96-98 imo.

it's a CTR replica front lip. i like the way it sits as black because it matches my side moldings and skirts so it will stay black. and, the fender, i have yet to find an oem silver one to replace it.

Red/Clear tails, SI front end and some JDM Visors "or replicas for $39.95" would really set that thing off..!!

Lookin good.

I'd black the inside of the headlights, fix the fender, and get some visors. Other than that I really like the car.
