hello, i just bought a 97 civic dx, coupe, 5 spd about a month ago. i have plans for this car, and i love it to death.
i bought the car for 2500, it is my second honda, first one was an acura legend. bought it ALL STOCK. im talking stock floormats too.
car is black.

currently sits:
aem dryflow SRI(20 bucks off friend)
gsr shiftknob(free)
alpine type s speakers all around(200, friend works at best buy)
pulled hubcaps, painted steelies flat black.(5 buck in paint?)
debadged(free)
156k miles

amazing condition, no dings or dents. or anything.

plans:
remove the oem pinstripe
lower it(gettinf h&r springs off a friend, good deal.)
getting struts to complement the springs(good struts?)
CF front lip, CF hood
jdm mesh grille
ebay foglights
oem headlights with black housing(NO hid lights! haha)
2000 taillights(red top, clear bottom)
rota or konig rims, flat black or bronze, havent decided yet. (either five or six spoke, undecided)
NOT DOING 2000 front end, overplayed.

i am swapping the engine for sure, havent decided which one, either way, i dont want to bolt anything onto my single cam.


mind you i am seventeen, so these mods will come with time

 

welcome to the forum, post pics of your ride and create a project thread!

 

its not a project yet, its my daily. if i were to make a thread, it would be a very slow one. hopefully the car will be lowered and have new wheels by the first of the year.

im dropping it 2.5 inches. i wonder how many tickets im gonna get....

 

lots... trust me XD cops love hondas. it dont matter if its a full project, just have a project thread and when you do something, post pics of it, that way people can see your ride and help you with it ex. ideas and stuff.

 

I thank for the help in this question.

 

Post some pictures man....

I like your mod list.... but Id suggest not getting CF lip as its a waste of money, period lol.

Not bad for a seventeen year old.

 

OMG nike approved of someone new.... kid you better stick around, hahaha, i agree tho, itll break quick.. get polyurethane

 

thanks guys, yeah probably polyurethane. im focusing on wheels and lowereing now. unless a deal comes up, this will be a slow build

 

welcome id also suggest not getting fogs for a 96-98 bumper only on the 99/00 or none at all im going with the none at all route on my car

 

i actually really like the depot fogs on the 96-98 civic front bumpers
