This is my mom's car. My mom unfortunately passed away in December. It will already almost be a year and it still hurts just the same.
So it's an 03 civic Lx.. em2

I started kinda doing a few things, didn't really get serious until I decided to dedicate my build to my mom.
I've never gotten to shape a car and I must say, it's been unreal.
Each part was the best enjoyment. Each ups delivery or package from the postal person..
This didn't happen over night. I ended faced with the car being demolished in a hailstorm that totalled it. Luckily this was 3 days before the car was going in for paint.
And not after. Needless to say there's no way they are keeping my car due to some body damage especially when I'm replacing most of it already!

First picture is about 2 months after I had it back home.. Plasti dipped hood and trunk and some cheap rims on Craigslist.. Then things just kind of took off. I have made a memorial page on Facebook that's basically documented the cars changes from what my mom took to get groceries, to now, what I use to get groceries! Lol

Last picture is yesterday..

Mind you, I understand everyone has their own tastes and I completely took my mom into consideration throughout the build as though she'd enjoy driving her car still the way I've made it and enjoy it still. So with that, please keep constructive criticism to a lull as its not productive nor respectful.
Thanks for taking a look..

 

 

Sorry for your lose. Nice car !

 

Just a little correction : EM2s are Coupes, yours is an ES1

 

Sorry to hear about the loss of 1 of the biggest influences in a child's life...I give you props for doing what you did with the car and why you did it, looks good and you have my props all around!

 

I think your mom would have wanted a K swap

Sorry for your loss, keep the car safe it will be tough on you if you loose it!

 

my condolences to you and your family, great build.

 

props man, ive been slowly building up my car in memorial of my mom who died from leukemia and breast cancer.
