What up every1?! I used to own a 94 civic coupe w/ a b18 swap, until I fell in love with the brand new '07 Civic Si sedan. I knew it was time to get into a larger car and with that it begins

I'll continue to post updates on my build as they come in. Please keep my thread free of hate, constructive criticism is always appreciated! :guns:

Car currently has:
09+ Front Conversion (Kouki)
TSX wheels
Nitto Neo Gens
Eiback Pro Kit
Pioneer Navi Indash
6000k H.I.D. Kit
Spoon Sports Duracon Shift Knob
Mugen Si Axle Back Exhaust
K&N Drop in Filter
Feel's Twin Cam Oil Cap
Spoon reservoir covers

Pics of after about 4 months of buying the car:


^Completely stock for the exception of tsx wheels & tint

^Damage on front end

^Close up of the damage

So I decided to do the 09+ front conversion.


^The end result

Also threw on the HFP Axle back exhaust and Shaved the rear completely while at the body shop:

Thanks all!! I'm currently saving up for some wheels, although i may be riding around for a while on the TSX's. I'm adding a few odds and ends as time goes on. I plan on picking up a project car soon
