Default DC2_R's EK build...

Well I picked myself up an 99 EK hatch yesterday. I think I got a pretty good deal on it. 117K on the odometer, interior is amazing. There were a few things wrong with it but minor things. Some are already under repair of have been repaired. Here are the most recent pictures as she sits now:





First mod...


If someone could please photoshop some Spun SPK-G wheels in black with a drop please do. I would love to see what it will look like.

I gotta love the VSM bro, it's one helluva color. These ones always turn out real sexy.

I am really excited and have a few ideas for it now. But trying to find some information regarding the different trims levels of the EK9. Was there a EK9 CTR with manual windows?

I'm not 100% sure but I remember seeing some door panels in manual windows at a local import shop.

It looked legit and was not a diy. All black with the red centers in manual,

I thought there was some discussion awhile back regarding CTR's with manual doors. Maybe I will just have to get a friend from Japan to send some to me.

I recently came up on some great shocks and spring combo. I was able to find some Bilstein and Eibach shocks combination for a great deal. Here is a picture of them together. the Eibach are the Pro Kit, from what I have read it will lower the car about 1.5 inches.
