94 Civic EJ1 build/project...give me your opinion!

[RoidBear]

I haven't been on CC for a while, but I have some updates for you all:

-I purchased and installed some Skunk2 Sport shocks, so now my car is evenly lowered all around (and the ride quality is so much better)
-I removed my under-the-hood AC system
-Finally hooked up my fog lights
-Installed 8000K headlight low/high beam bulbs
-Hooked up a rear red Datum1 tow hook
-I hand polished my rims (they're not the best, but better than before)
-I cleaned up my gauge cluster back to an OEM look (the person who had it before me had installed some nasty-looking glow gauges), but I kept the carbon fiber bezel

I can't remember what else at the moment, but I'll make sure to post pics of all this when I get the chance!

Thanks!

I'm originally from the Central Valley, but I lived in Berkeley for 4 years and then when I graduated I landed a job at an SF immigration law firm for the Summer, but after that was over, I moved back to the Central Valley to work. I liked living in the Bay Area, especially living so close to SF, so I rarely got bored lol. You should have gone man!

When I lowered my car, it was too low to begin with and my car would scrape in my own driveway if I didn't drive it at an angle, so I decided to lift it up a little. I put some coilover sleeves on my car after picking them up from some guy on Craigslist, so here are the updated pics of the car (because I too, like pictures):

Update 12.20.2011

Yesterday I installed a pager alarm on my car, so now I can sleep a little bit more peacefully...The last thing I would want is for my wrench time to walk away!

Please go back lower! scraping isnt that big of deal.. I would sleep with the pager around my neck lol

The good thing is that when I want to lower it more, I can adjust the coilover sleeve. For right now, I'm planning to get a Spoon lip, so after I put one on, I'll lower it, so that I know how it will look with the lip and all.

Haha, I should keep the beeper taped to my face! Like the TapeFace crew lol (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCPNWKSu-dE)

I put a rear window visor on my car and I adjusted my front left coilover because it was rubbing up against my coilover sleeve. I like the look the rear visor gives to the car. I'll post a pic of the car when I give it a car wash!

Tuned in for pics of the visor. I've always been a fan of them, but usually not with a spoiler
