Default A timeline of my 96 Civic sedan

I rarely post pics and being in school makes it hard to afford really nice genuine stuff, but here it is.

Oldest pic I have. Fake Type R lights and 5Zigen Fighter 17's.


Then got a replica R lip.


Got rid of the wheels and got some Slips(cheap and light so shut up)


Played around with fogs and new grille.


Had an old beat up CF hood so tried it out


And took off school this summer to do some maintenance and freshen up the looks. New ebay lights, Seibon SP lip, misc interior(no pics) and still have the Y7 Its slowly getting to where I want it. Future plans include repairing some oxidized paint, Recaro Speeds, and something with the power plant maybe GSR.







Other mods include: Koni yellows, H&R sports, ASR brace, CTR 22mm rear sway, stock front sway, Omni front and rear control arms, AEM short ram.

Thanks for looking. Any comments/suggestions welcome.

Thanks. The reason I didnt like the fogs, type r lip and cf hood is they were all fake/poor quality and didnt really go together. To me the cf lip and fogless looks much cleaner. Besides theres almost never fog where I live so no use. Just have to get used to dodging anything thats over 1.5 inches tall lol.

Thanks for the comments. Ive always loved the way the spoon lip looked so I had to get it, even if a replica. I always drive carefully but if it breaks it breaks. Car handles pretty well but H&R sports are pretty soft, planning on going with GC's maybe in the 350-400 lb/in range. Also some better tires to replace the ASX I have.
