It has been a while since my last update, so here's what I updated lately:

Bought, reBuild and installed a B18C4:

Timelapse video of the engineswap is uploaded to youtube: Flits Engine Swap Civic d16 to b18 - YouTube


Finished the interior including the backseats and sides (I redid the upholstery since I didn't like the previous version):

I also removed the D2 airride suspension and installed a more professional 12mm system from BSS: Civic Airride 12mm.mp4 - YouTube

The end product untill now:

Motor looks amazing!

Not a fan of the interior, but it looks like great work regardless. If you still have that Blox sticker on the fender, please, remove it.

Finally some time to update my topic
Lambodoors are gone and did something no one else did ever before :P
That is, I wanted a wide body but none of the kits looked clean.
All the widebodykits looked like some kind of spaceship :P and I wanted to keep the orgininal lines of the car.
That includes keeping the original gas cap and even the plastic strips in the doors :P

So after 8 months strugling to get everyting the way I wanted it, it's done
Project pictures are uploaded to my website: Startpagina - Team-FCT Flits - Honda Civic Coupe (EJ8) Custom Widebody Project

Curious what you guys think of the build



Rimms:
Racinghart 18inch
Front: 9,5J ET7 with Falken 225*35
Rear: 10J ET-12 with Falken 245*35


Waiting for the comments :P

I see what you are trying to do, and it does look good. However, IMO that body kit/wide body stuff never appealed to me.
