Default Finally took pics of the hatch and beater, + some tech (56k death)

I finally got pics of my hatch and beater after putting my duckbill on. Very easy installation, for the people that dont know its just open up the hatch, unbolt 4 bolts, take off the stock one and replace with your cf one. Very straightforward. Looking towards Friday as my cf hood gets here, makes a nice match for the duckbill.










And heres my beater, yeah I know my front lip is cracked **** PA highways






and if anybody was wondering how to get the bumper off to install JDM headlights here ya go:


enjoy

You probably get asked all the time...Who makes the fog lights? Are they OEM Honda, or the Pilot knockoff versions...The reason I ask is because they look like they fit nice.

I had a Type S before.


Unfortunately, early in its life I mis-shifted going to 4th and blew 2 valves and fried a cylinder. Needless to say, if warrenty wouldnt have covered it, I would have been out of $8,500. After that I never trusted myself again on the 6 speed. I like the DC5 platform and the features it had over my beater 2001 Civic at the time, so I decided to sell my Type S and 2001 Civic, and got the Base RSX and began work on my project hatch. This is where im at now

What engine in the hatch?

I really like both rides, however the drop in the rear of your hatch is stock? Seems pretty high?
