He has like no options for the hood, and I think what he did with it looks WAY better than a hood with just a huge hump in it. Pretty much the best possible way.

And that front bumper is beautiful. Yes, beautiful. Definitely my second favorite bumper to the BYS, but you see the BYS's alot; props for being unique. I am seriously in love with your car man, definitely one of my favorite Civic's ever. Interested in trading for a nice blue Si? LOL

Thanks, i only found 2 people who sell this bumper, one in the U.K., other in canada.
Went with the canadian one because the shipping is a lot cheaper.

Sorry, this baby will never be for sale or trade.


That guy is in a contest with my friend Don for who will be the first guy to make a fully working triptronic, I think my friend will win, and with a little bit of luck, this will sport the Honda fit wheel with paddle shift.

my dad's gf's lexus has paddle shifters. kinda neat but also kind of pointless. pushing the gas to the floor in an automatic accomplishes the same thing. Or the tectonic shift lever in the console

But wait if its in a manual it wouldnt be the same was that lexus a auto trans that can "switch" to a manual? I want the paddle shifters in a manual trany...not an auto to manual one, although that could be fun to play with and install...sounds like a project for someone if u ask me
