Default 1995 honda civic si (my baby)

Here's some pictures of my baby. She's come a long way since I got her. It's my first car, wish I posted pictures of her back when I got her but oh well. I've always been a honda tech lurker until now all the work is done by me from things I've learned from this site, the swap, running the piping for my bumper scoop, my wire tuck and learning what I needed to put AC back into my ride. Thanks guys for sharing all the info! I really appreciate all the reference material this site had to offer, good work much love!

^ plates on the truck in the garage look like CA.

nice car, OP. I would get rid of the hood lift myself, but everything else looks pretty clean.

What is with the hood risers? To keep air flow in the engine bay?

Yeah, I read a thread about them where people knocked them and others rocked them so I decided to try them and guess what it works, especially with my no name aluminum radiator. It definitely runs cooler with it

Polish them, don't paint them.

Not planning on doing anything else to it because it is for sale. Just feel like it's time has come. BTW I have polished my headlights dozens of times since I got the jdm headlights and still keeps fogging up then I talked to some painters and they said they usually just spray a coat of clear over them. I'll post pictures of it. And yeah I got banned idk why. I think I was posting on the wrong sections.

Just finished clearing them today! Turned out to be way easier than expected! Headlights look brand new I recommend it over polishing!
