I bought this civic for $1000 two days ago. im seventeen and honestly happier than what i first expected! the car does need "some" exterior work. planning on replacing both fenders, front/rear bumper and hood. also giving it a full paint job.(same color) and soon after swap it to something a but quicker. overall, im happy with the car. runs great!

any suggestions on what i should do to the car would be much appriciated.
thanks a lot!

 

nice. same color of my first coupe. and since your part of the brotherhood now, its an ej1, not eg coupe. looking forward to seeing it all done up

 

First thing I would do is basic tune up:

Oil change
check spark plugs, coolant, trans fluid, timing belt water pump, etc.

After that I guess I would fix the window roller handle that's sitting on the drivers seat in your other photo

 

and ditch that tow hook immediately..good luck to you.

 

CHONY's little brother huh!!!
nice come up bro. the best thing is that your two brothers do body work and paint cars. so that will be easy for you. DX is even better.
just clean up the inside really good vacum everything
clean up- degreaser engine bay and check oils and brakes for now.

you still in highschool must be nice. we'll meet up one of these days.

 

Great start man. Good luck with the build.

 

Looks like you are off to a good start.
