Hello fellow Ht'ers!

Heres my 2000 taffeta white civic ex. I got this car as a graduation present from my pops(RIP) last year in August. Before I even got a car, I was already on HT checking out civics and seeing what my future plans were for a car.........TURBO!! 3rd owner of this car, bought for 4k stock. Loved it since day 1. Hope everyone enjoys!

-Didn't have a camera at the time when I got the car. But this is how it looked anyways.

8/12/07 STOCK




First thing, got myself a badge & honda emblem. Started it slow.


1/28/08 Lowered car, got si rims, sidemarkers, new oem headlights and put on a siR lip on a 99-00 front? nope. it worked w/some customizing.





3/19/08 Sold the sir lip and bought myself a si lip. Added some fogs also. Was suppose to be a orangy-amber color vinyl but turned out more reddish.
