Hello HT,
Ive have my crv for a year and a half now. i love it! i think its such a near car to mod just because not to many people think to do it. its so unique.

it started out as a regular 2000 auto crv.

about 2 hours after i got the exhaust. some lady wasn't looking where she was going and hit me...

here is what i did before the accident
-12" pioneer sub
-4 6" pioneer door speakers
-Sony head unit
-Blacked out emblems
-roof rack (repainted it because it was extreamly faded)
-plastidiped wheels black
-smoked tail lights
-OBX exhaust.






took it to the shop and insurance actually covered it. i thought they were gonna total it i was so upset. but it was saved!!!

After it was repaired
-I re-spreayed the front grill, bumpers, and side trim
-mounted a EG Duckbill
-Yonaka Accord Coilovers
-Rear Camber Arms
^ that's pretty much it for now

THIS WAS TAKEN WHEN I TEST FITTED THE DUCKBILL


What i want to do.
-T25 Turbo
-Rims (any suggestions?)

here are some pictures of my car that were taken at a meet last friday.







Work process is slow because i am a poor college student. but if i do anything else ill post in here
Hope you enjoy!

 

Good luck I want to boost mine too

 

Take the front bumper off, and paint everything behind it black. Please

 

Agreed!

 

More angles of spoiler please!

 

you know i never thought of that. good idea it will look soo much better. do you think i should paint the radiator as well? will that effect anything?

and i will get more pics of the duckbill

 

Do not paint the radiator, please. You will lose some of its functionality.
Same as painting intercoolers. Bad idea.

 

i think they were talking about the body color pieces underneath that you can see through the bumper

 

yea i knew that i was just checking. thanks for the advice. ill get more spoiler pics up soon. maybe even today

 

Nice start. Sucks that it was hit tho.

 

Looking good. I was thinking of doing the same thing (re-coloring) to my bumpers, wheel well trim, body trim, and side moldings. I like the black on silver look. I have seen others put a chin spoiler on their front end. Does anyone know if the front chin spoiler is a modified Civic part?

 

RDM!

 

Its from a 05 06 jeep

 

i just used plasti dip on my plastic parts. (bumper, trim) i prepped well and took my time. looks great. i decided to go with plasti because the bumper coater was like 17 bucks a can..

 

Krylon dual stage gloss black and primer is what you want to use.. three cans does the trick for all the plastic pieces and bumper under six bucks at walmart.

 

i didn't want it to be glossy. i think it looks better matte

 

Yea some ppl don't prefer it but im already gloss black so match's on any other color just looks like you washed your crv and put armor all on the bumper's. Your crv is looking good tho.

 

Thanks man!! yours is clean too!

 

any suggestions on how i should go about turboing it? i plan on tuning with 2 ecu's as it is auto. one for the engine and one for the trans. i dont wanna go crazy with power just a little because the crv definitely feels like its under powered. maybe like 175 200 hp goal. what would i have to do? do you think a t25 on 7lb of boost would get me to that goal?

 

thinking about getting rims soon and starting my turbo project. what size intercooler fits in the bumper? i understand i might have to do some cutting.

 

More pictures of the EG Spoiler please?

 

No vtec awd no care!!! Looks nice though upgrade suspension, rims with roof rack to hold more subs and your good to go.

 

i have coilovers for a accord in there. i no i need rims im working on it.
and i will definitely try to post more spoiler pictures. ive been really busy lately.
