Default TheDrew's 99 Civic EX-R

Here is another lil project i picked up...This is my DD and I actually enjoy this then my Teggy... Here she is:
99 Civic EX

So this is after a week of getting it... not in bad shape... the body had alot of dings and dents all over it... the hood, roof and trunk all had hail damage... headlights were hazed so i buffed them out...one of the stock 14's blew out so i picked up some fat 5's off my friend....





This was after lowering it on Eibach Sportlines, getting all the body work done and having the entire car repainted
Replaced: Hood, fenders, headlights and front bumper
CTR lip and grill installed... also after painting the nessassary parts black...





GSR Swap with 5 speed conversion in the works 9 Apr 09













Omni Power IM/OEM Valve Cover/OBX Header



25 Apr 09...Swap is in... so are some other little things...

He wants to make a type r but its a ex coupe, so he made his own name I'm guessing? Looks clean though I wish we got ctr's over here that would have been nice.

Thanks guys... for some reason i like the CTR lip better than the SI... but that is just me... the reason why i call it an EX-R is because it is an EX with a gsR swap..Hince EXR or EX-R... Thanks for the props everyone!

Not to be a jerk or anything, but last I was told/corrected a CTR lip is an Si lip.

And I'm quite sure some people can back this statement up.

Nonetheless, good to see the work you've put in

The lip on your car right now is a knockoff CTR lip, not a real one. Because a real CTR lip for the 1999-2000 CTR is the same thing as the OEM Si lip here in the states. No biggie if you like the knockoff one, though.

Nice car though! Gold and white goes well together, for sure.
