Default My new car

1999 civic dx hatch
amethyst
What do you think of it? THe only mod i have done to the car are the headlights. NO they arent real.





There are few minor things wrong. small dent on rear 1/4 panel ant see unless you really look for it. One taillight looks like it had a hole in it about the size of a dime but it was sealed up with some kind of glue. The driver door doesnt seal up right so you can hear air coming through it at about 60mph but its getting fixed by a friend as soon as we both have time. And the rear spoiler had a chip in the paint see pic. not to bad though. Got a damn good deal on the car.

that's the color and year mine started out as... i really like that color, but i let my wife (then fiancee) convince me to change it to black 'cause it's the only color she would let me get a CF hood with.

I am not a fan of Purple at all. But I must say that car looks amazing. I dont know if it is the lighting the pics were taken in. Or just how mean the headlights look.

I paid 2125 for it. it was 2000 cash with 125 dollar emissions test from utah. I dont have emissions here in idaho but they do so i had to get it done. bunch of crap to me but it was very cheap. I got the car form an auction. but from a dealership to. it was kinda wierd how it happened. i was in the right place the right time. The car has a perfect title. i ran carfax and everything. I love having a dealers license.

once again get your **** straight
the 5" brospeed tip not monza( like it matters) came on the car when i bought it which i replaced
when did i ever have "yellow" trim on my CRX? why would i put yellow on silver?
i had one windshield wiper sometimes most time i never had either on, plus i didnt have it sticking up the middle of the window
i have painted hubcaps now because they were in crap condition so i touched them up
what is wrong with 3 beam projectors?
i had red tint, you wanted blue but never got it
i happen to like red rims seen many cars with them that looked good, doesnt mean i wished i wouldnt of powdercoated them

i never wanted to put blue tint on my car if i wanted it i would have done it but i tinted them black. give us your story on that HUGE comando wing you had on your crx. I never liked altezzas. I saw those and in the pic they looked alot more blue than they really were and i liked how they looked. I would have kept them on my car longer if they didnt get dirt inside and start to look like ****. i thought they looked ok. noone else had them around here. I have no excuse for the washer lights yes they were ricer but i only had them on my car for a few days when i actually had them hooked up.

hmm lets se i had a CRX i put a terminator/commando wing on, had it on for a while didnt like it so i took it off. end of story, it didnt look bad but it didnt fit that well so i sold it

you had the washer lights hooked up for way more than a few days. and you always talked about getting blue tint- i thoght the blue tint would of looked good IMO
