Smile did a couple things

well, i got a couple more things done to my civic. the amber corner lights(the ones i had were factory from a hatch, so the dont fit right) i put in an integra map light, painted my bezel and needles, and got some oem foglights from ebay. i have a new front bumper cover, front and rear lips on the way, so im waiting to put the foglights in, till i get those pieces and get the car repainted, cuz im still rockin the primer spots. the red escort in the pics is my old car im sellin for paint money, so the civic is quite an upgrade. i dont know how to post the pics, so here is my cardomain link, its a little easier to figure out seein how im not to technologically advanced. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3320046/3

Nice little upgrades! are you going to repair your bumper? or find a new one? (not trying to be rude) It seemed it needed alittle love.

check it out now, i just got my bumper via UPS today, got done mounting it about 20 mins ago. it was a pain in the **** to mount it and the foglights, but i got it for now. o yea, i got rid of the ugly white wipers youll see on page 1. i also have a front and rear lip on the way, then itll be ready for paint. im gonna get a bmw style antenna cuz i shaved the stock one. and maybe some crx si wheels from a guy i know might be at home on the civic.

i plan on putting the antenna in the middle of the back of the roof, i think itll look pretty clean. i just hate how the stock antenna looks so chinsy.

thanx man, its definitely a project i may have jumper into a little too quick, considering i have had the car less then a month and stuck about twice as much as i paid for it into it, but its coming along. i just want a decent looking car to invest more money and go fast parts into so i started with the body work(keep in mind i have never done body work, but i have a friend who does it on semis, and he helped me with sanding the body lines in. the paint will also be an amateur job, but me and my friends are all learning on this car). should be painted in a couple of weeks.
