The only thing left to do on this car is engine work and I'm still debating about doing that because I might just sell it since I've had this car for over 3 years and I've been at college for 2 years and never had my car up here. Majority of the parts were put on this summer because I wanted to clean it up.

If I keep it... its Swap or Boost.

that looks really good, i love those rims

 

why would you put so much work into restoring a car and then sell it??? i say you keep it and finish off what you start. work on the motor, or a NEW motor heheheh good luckbro

 

sorry cant say that i'm a fan!!

 

i used to have those same speedlines on my old crx, but now there on my moms 00 hx

 

looks good i love the all of it except the rims

i dont like the rims but to each his own

 

Since it needed it. the rear needed to be repainted since when I first got it, I shaved the inner tails before people really did it on the east coast, then got tired of it. Then my car was slightly hit in the front so the front needed to be repainted. Fixed the hood but wasn't completely happy with it so the front and the rear needed to be repainted. Awhile ago, I messed up my stock EX front lip and couldn't stand it without a lip. My lighting sucked so I wanted HID's. The wheels & suspension setup I've had for 2 years, but only really driven in summers and school breaks.

I guess its because I'm somewhat of a perfectionist and I couldn't stand driving around a car that was partially put together when I knew it had more potential.

Deciding about the engine swap because once I do the engine swap I'm going to want boost and by the time I'm done with that it will be over 6k and don't know it I want to spend that much on this car since counting the car I've spent over 13k.

I've just become attached to them, and I've never seen these rims on any 5th gen civic and everyone I've talked to has never seen them on a 5th gen civic either.

how hard is it to get those rims??? are they sold withing North America????

 

There 99-00 Civic SI optional wheels. They were an expensive option and you can still buy them at Honda but I think there almost 200 a wheel for 15". I have even seen them on 01+ Civics but most of them have a black center cap instead of the red.
