Default Updated pics of my sedan!

I don't think I've posted photos of my car here before so I thought I would take some time to show you my money pit. The car is kind of dirty and needs a vacuum so I hope I don't catch too much flack for it

Before I get to the pics, I know I'm missing a front emblem I just got the car back from getting a little body work and haven't had time to get a new one. There's still a lot I want to do to this car, next will be some sort of cf rear diffuser, E85 tune, black couplers, get the exhaust tucked up better, antenna block off plate, etc. This winter I'm planning on sprucing up the interior (I scratched up a few panels installing my seat unfortunately).

Anyways, let me know what you guys think!

P.S: Photobucket ate up the image quality a little so apologies for that.

Wow, this is different. It's quite odd but that's individuality. However the cooling plate and the DIY needles for the CRV Cluster are killer, can you share info on those?

Thanks for the feedback guys!

And the radio is under the drivers seat, I figured it would be a good place for it considering there's a remote and I usually just use my iPhone plugged into the aux port on the head unit.

Thanks for all the replies I tried doing something different with the car. It's tough doing something unique because sometimes I feel everything with these cars has been done to death but I'm glad you guys think the car is somewhat different.

Basically it's because the car is a sedan which is kind of undesirable equipped with a d16 which is definitely an undesirable engine for most people.

I'll be trying to adjust the fitment on the lip this weekend, I'm kind of bummed at how it fit because I paid good money hoping Seibon was a large enough company to provide unparallelled quality. The weave looks great, but the fitment left a little to be desired (especially since I am so **** about the car).

As far as the needles, they were painted orange to match the orange on the cluster. All I did was take the cluster apart, tape off the area surrounding the needles, and took an orange sharpie to them

I wish I could show you guys the suspension, it's what I'm most proud about with this car. Everything under the car was powdercoated with brand new hardware and poly bushings. Oh and as far as power numbers, enough to go low 12s on a street tire
