        This is a car that not enough people attempt to mod seriously. And I applaud you for doing such a fantastic job with an underutilized body style.

        When I had a 7th gen, 7thgencivic.com was filled with ricers and people that thought tinting windows was a serious mod.

          oh. my. god. , that pisses me off to no extent when people list that as a mod, mostly because I can't even tell the difference $200 later..

          And to OP car looks really clean, you really made the most of the stock body lines, only thing I would suggest is possibly a different wheel color, since i think the gold clashes with the silver, but its your car so do what ever the f*ck you want

                thanks for the welcome guys.
                I dont plan to build the motor at all really, I'm not into that.

                thanks for the construction criticism dudes,
                I wanted to get the wheels powder-coated white, but I honestly dont know how long I'll have the wheels.

                this site looks great to learn some new suspension set ups and theories.

                  I couldn't agree with you more. Nice job, OP. I'm surprised that front lip isn't beat to hell.

                    pretty sweet. i think 16s (not reps either ) would suit the body a little better though

                        I didn't even know these existed until the other week. So uncommon when they do look great in this shape, yours is no exception.

                            it was at one time.
                            not too proud of it, but we all have to start somewhere;

                              extended ball joints are in. camber arms are on, but I had to press out the knuckle bushing.
