Default New Here!

Good evening to all,
My name is Walter and I'm new to this forum. I'm usually in the 8th Civic forum and have been for a few years now. I just wanted to try a new one.

I have a 2009 Civic Si coupe (CBP), not many mods, mostly stock anyway. I had a 2008 Civic Si sedan but it was a pure lemon from transmission issues to steering issues. Ended up trading it in for the 2009 Si I have now.

Current mods:
1. TSX-retrofitted headlights OEM style - Denso ballasts and XB35 5000K bulbs.
2. IS300-retrofitted fog lights (2008 civic fogs) with Morimoto 3000K bulbs.
3. Amber S2K side markers.
4. Skunk2 70mm cat-back exhaust system.
5. TWM short shifter full assembly.
6. Smoked third-brake light and tinted turn signals.
7. 35% smoked-tinted windows.
8. OEM wheels painted (by me) in dupli-color sunburst gold metallic, clear coated.
9. JDM red "H" emblems (front and rear).
10.Eibach pro-kit lowering springs.
11.Nokya yellow bulbs (high beams).

Also, I just had my car repainted (everything except bumpers and doors). I had the paint fading/peeling issue on the roof and trunk, and cracked hood paint. It was all painted under Honda's extended paint warranty. I've had it for about 2 weeks now. It took 2 weeks to get it done.

I'll post some pictures soon, whenever I get them loaded.

Thank you in advance for reading my post.

Here are some pictures I was able to load.
My car about 2 years ago...


My car about a year ago after installing the retro fogs...


This is my car now. It was repainted a few days ago, covered under Honda's extended paint warranty. This was the day I got it back (before re-installing the retro fogs too).

Thank you! It's been a lot of hard work keeping it like that.

My car actually changed a little bit in the past few days. I installed a set of 2012 Si oem wheels. My brother found them thru some of his friends. Literally, new wheels and tires for $300. A deal I could not let pass. I will post pics later.
