Im just going to use this thread as the update thread from now on. I plan on doing quite a bit to it and dont want to make a new thread for everything. So here it is after I put the new grill on it. Put on the Skunk2 cam seals too but couldnt really get a picture of those that wasnt blurry.





Next on the way is an aluminum radiator and some OEM fogs along with the install of the A/C kit I picked up for it. B18 with a/c.

 

I want more pic when things come in.
Oh, is that aftermarket side markers?

 

Im not sure about the side markers, the guy gave them to me with the car so I just went ahead and put them on there. Ill keep the updates coming. I have a lot of plans for the motor, not a whole lot I can do to the exterior since Ive already got it about where I want.

Since Ive had it ive put on...

Rota C8's polished and painted them back
Sumitomo 205/40/16s
Skunk2 Cam seals
Side Markers
Random Interior pieces it was missing
Slave Cylinder (twice)
Lots of re-wiring to fix odd lighting problems
Type R style Grill

 

soooo ya, about that foggy headlight. fix it kthx bai

 

I have one perfectly clear and one faded headlight. haha. It drives me crazy but I tried the plastic restoration stuff on it and made no improvement.

 

did u try polishing it?

 

It's oxidation on the inside of the lense due to a factory defect in the headlight seals.

 

This is correct, it is on the inside. I am just waiting and getting a new headlight, the tabs on it broke after the hit and run when I first got the car. It stays in place, but I will have a new headlight, front bumper, and probably drivers fender sometime. Im only waiting because as soon as I buy one, one will pop up in pull a part...always happens to me.

 

Gave the car a good wash and wax today. Got a few interiors pieces the car was missing and a drivers side sideskirt. Sooooo.....PICS!






Looking for some Blue wires. Plan on keeping a blue, bronze/gold, and black scheme.
Painting the valve cover bronze or gold next week.


and the Si cluster and broken air vent...I have looked in about 10 different civics at junk yards and have yet to find one with a vent!

 

I love your hatch. Although i don't think i can look at it any longer. I miss having my hatch.
