Hey y'all, noob to the site but definitely not new to Hondas. Thought I'd use this thread to introduce myself and put some pics up of the re-build of my Civic. I acquired my 2000 Civic EX sedan about 3 years ago after totaling my '92 Accord into a drunk driver in an '80s F-150. Unfortunately, the Civic hasn't been immune from poor drivers either - including myself. I've had to replace both driver's side exterior door panels once already due to a soccer mom who was unaware of how turning works when there are two turn lanes. Then I did some damage to the front and rear bumpers while under the influence (Yes, I know - I was an idiot!) Anyways, so far I've replaced the front and rear bumpers, and upgraded to a Type R style grill, headlights, and front lip. Some of the pics aren't so great, so bear with me...


rear end minus bumper

front end sans bumper/lights...

close up of reinforcement bar damage

'70s style one mirror look

can anyone spot the next thing to be fixed?

 

id get that drivers side rear door replaced!

 

I CAN!!!

the rims........!
and the gravedigger ride height?

 

Good luck on the rebuild bro.

 

You guys are quick ones. Yes, I need to replace the drivers side rear door panel first. Then I'll dropping it (still trying to decide what spring/damper combo) and then I'm looking into some new rims...

 

Looks to me that the exhaust needs fixing too

 

Can't disagree with ya there. When I totalled my Accord, I took off as many parts as I could and the muffler was one of them. Then I must have hit a bump in my Civic or something cuz the stock muffler completely disconnected from the piping and was being held on by the hangers so I replaced the exhaust piping and had that muffler welded to it cuz I already had it. It doesn't remotely match the lines of the car but it works for now. Exhaust is also on the list of things to look into, but I wanna drop it because I'm F'in 4x4in right now...
