Default Winter Shots before I go back to school

EK Side aren't bolted on because I still have to finish customizing them so that everything fits like stock. In the morning I took the car to the car wash and by the time I was done(4 mins) spraying all of the salt and dirt off, my windshield was frozen and I had to pull out the scraper and scrape off all the way!

The only thing I dislike really is the red signal lights...

I was going to do all red tails 3 years ago, but when I started to make them and put them up to my car I just didn't like the look and I don't need another reason for a cop to pull me over. I've had the corners for over 3 years but during that time I had them off for a little because my dad backed up into my car and only hit the passenger side so I had to make another set.

Never giving up the wheels since I've only seen one other 92-95 Civic have them in my life, and that was in the past 2 months and he is on hondatech. I've asked many other people and they've never seen it either. Also the hondatech member that has them has the black/gold center caps on the red/silver like mine.

I know your just jealous of the Silver Sol seats! Too bad they will be replaced or wrapped this summer with something different.

And stop trying to plug your stunna site

I like the clears over the red corners.....and are you gonna do the black/red thing, if not paint the mouldings and sides and lip (i thought I saw a lip). Looks good otherwise.

He did paint the moldings, lip and sides....but he forgot the hood
If i was going to run a mismatched hood I wouldve left the moldings alone.
Doesnt make sense to me to color match everything and then add a larger piece to the car that isnt colormatched.

Car is clean nonetheless

Those rims look nasty as hell to me, unique or not.

I have a set of clears that I put on every once in awhile. But they arent in the greatest shape.

I sometimes wish I hadn't messed up my EX lip since it was subtle. I might see if I can fix it and put it back on and sell the type-r style lip. The reason why the side skirts aren't painted is because they aren't finished yet. The hood I got a week before school in the summer so I haven't had time to paint it. Although not sure if I'm going to paint it or not.

Thanks everyone for the comments so far good and bad. Constructive Criticism is always

Sorry not on this comp. All it has under the hood is AEM CAI. This summer possibly turboed unless I sell it.
