Like the thread says "What do you think?" I shaved all the emblems, inner tails, mugen tag from frontlip and Acura logo from the '00 GSR blades. Im working on machining of the wording "HONDA" off of the valve cover, which only leaves me with the steering wheel. I want to remove all emblems and logos to make the car look clean and with a stock look (no big raging body kits and high flying aluminum wings here). Any ideas on getting the logo off the wheel? I want a wheel that keeps the SRS and looks like the OEM one. I know it sounds impossable but hey I want to hear ideas.

 

very clean, i like the side profile the most.

 

thats deff not a stock look. i dont like the rear

but its your car. i guess some people just strive for originality

 

everything is nice, but the back is not my style

but props for all the work

 

Thank you for the + feedback. By "stock look" I was steering away from the body kit crap. Mostly I wanted people who didnt know that much about hondas or imports would think it was basiclly stock. Not big and flashy with a Type R sticker on the hood. Any ideas on the steering wheel???

like, as in an aftermarket?

 

flaps but nice car. gsr blades

 

Actually thats quite funny!! I get my cars and projects painted for free (labor and materials) but I dont want to spend the down time repainting the whole side of the car every spring... see I live in WA state where you are lucky to experience 3 months of somewhat summer. The rest of the time its either raining or snowing. The roads are either filled with muddy water or salt and sand on the road wich chews up the side of the car. This is the reason I got the mudflaps in the first place and it keeps me from having to prep the damn thing.... If you have ever preped a whole car before ( and damn man Im picky) you will know what Im talking about. I agree it looks kinda lame but again function over form anyday!! Thanks for the hit on the blades...

 

every thing looks clean except for the tail lights....not quite my style but its ure car

 

i never seen the blades on a EK

looks nice

 

Looks fairly clean just an idea for the steering wheel is you could have the part in the center rewraped in vinyl andthat would get rid of the honda emblem

 

looks like a mitsu mirage from the back

but from the side it looks

 

Why are you machining the letters of the valve cover. Ever hear of a file? Do it by hand in 45 minutes.

BTW the trunk is fugly.

 

I'm not one to critize but looks like the odds are against you on the shaving job on the rear

plus points for the blades

 

What kind of car is that? I cant tell without the badges.

 

never did like the shaved inner tails.

 

Nice car and body work. I dont like the wing but everyone has their own taste. Looks good. Any engine mods or r u running stock? Have you seen the JDM steering wheels with the srs? I has a H in the middle but i think it can be removed. Good luck

 

This is a very clean civic, especially with all the BS honda's that around WA. Good job on your civic man.

Btw what part of Pt Defiance is that, so i know where to go take pics of my car!

 

the paint over your shaved inner tails doesnt match. its very noticeable especially on the passenger side

 

I think it works.

Looks like thats where the shadow is hitting to me.

 

you paid 350$ for the mugen lip and then shaved off the mugen badge?

 

do away w/ the rear wing

He said he wanted it to look clean, and I'd imagine he doesn't want to attract thieves either. And as far as the paint in the rear, it looks like reflections to me.

 

that thing is spotless, DFH material all the way!

 

hell yea man.. thats fawking cleeeean!
