Alright so i havent updated in a while since i been going through alot of things. coming back up north. finding a place and to live and all that. but now im gonna be going to UTI in boston pretty soon.

I havent taken any pics of the car yet but the only thing i pretty much did was got an SI Gauge Cluster and replaced my old front struts cuz the right side was gone. i also waxed my car and stuffm, cleaned it inside and out.

Oh yeah i also traded my steelies with some HX rims and threw an extra 100$ on top. Think that was a good trade? Im gonna be powdercoating it a Formula Red. and throw on some winter tires.

I dont want to take crappy pics with my phone so ill wait till i use my uncles camra. ill probly post up the pic of the SI Cluster i got later tonight. so yea thats my update!

The red looks tightttt. Im diggin the HX's, i wanna get a set for my civic im thinkin. But idk if you would wanna try it but have u ever thought of painting the lips, sideskirts, mirrors, and the other stuff all silver to match the car? I think it might look sweet with the silver but at the same time i love the black stuffs with the silver.

Red is not my choice when it comes to Hx rims, i think white would have been better, but thats my .02.

Makes me want a si cluster more. If I felt like dumpin a grand I'd buy a Spoon ek cluster, so hot. Rims look good red though, like it a lot. You need to get SiR bumpers to continue the black molding. I want a white ek just to do the SiR bumpers and black mouldings... looks good though!

Yea i was planning on painting all that stuff but since its already colld up in maine and winters coming im going to do it next spring. I still have my H Caps to paint and i need to throw it on but the spraypaint doesnt go good on the caps since its plastic. It makes "Frog Eyes". Probly try to finish it up next week.

I was thinking white but to much ppl have white. since im moving to mass for school, all i've seen was civics with white n black HX rims. I've also seen it on a silver hatch like mines and it didnt really look that good so i went with red.
