PM me which one it's on, I'll take it off and keep it to one side for you. You say it had a decat as well?

PMd

Nice motors the civics, was never a fan until someone i know got one and took me out in it - still undecided but one of the best hatches i've been in heh

Update since the last post then folks... On holiday in Spain at the mo so no pics til I'm home I'm afraid!

Fitted...
Type R rear lip - left it black to match the bump strips and sideskirts which are black plastic
Colour coded mirrors - might make a frankenstein of both sets and have some contrast (black bases, silver mirrors etc vice versa)
Black grille - again undecided on this, might swap back to silver or spray the mesh silver on this one?
A few new stickers here and there as you do!
FINALLY got 4 wheel nuts on each rim ha ha!!
New brake pads (£2.30 from Charles Trent scrapyard in Ruggggby - Ferodo and barely used!!!)

To fit...
Type R front lip - ordered whilst in Spain so should be waiting for when I get back
Square JDM style plates
Front JDM plate tilter to angle my plate downwards
New headlights - bought the headlights off a salvage Civic along with the mirrors - need to EK9 them first...get rid of that nasty silicone bathroom-style sealant that is currently on the old lights!!

and finally....

NEW GOD DAMN WHEELS!!
This last one is a big surprise really, still not 100% whether to do it or not but the money is sat in the bank waiting and when I get home I'm all set to go and buy them!

16&quot;. Rota and Brand New is all I'm saying. Not seen another set like it on a car yet!

Anyone whos got me on Facebook have a look on my page, uploaded some new pics just before I went on holiday - had a mini photoshoot down the industrial estate in Southam

The album is called VTEC Just Kicked In Yo!

How much do what cost? The car? You can get a pretty tidy one in standard nick for about £750 I think? Mine was £1500 lol
