-----

so im not sure if many of you remember about 2 months ago i was involved in a 5 car pile up. well i finally took it in to get fixed and here she is! lets do a before after after photo real quick.

Before:

After the accident:


damage didnt look bad until itook stuff apart the core support was pushing back about an inch or so.

Back from the body shop looking purty!:






things that are different from the before to now.
jdm power folding mirrors
jdm ctr red h on a brand new ebay grille
lost the fog lights. they were ebay knock offs and were already messed up before the accident. gonna get some oem ones sometime
lost my 6k hid kit. one of the ballasts got destroyed in the accident
now im running a 10k xenon kit and i love it. but i may get another ballast and go back to 6k
no more blacked out headlights. i may black out another set but the oem chrome is kind of growing on me.
got the side skirts repainted the paint was cracking pretty badly on them.

thats it tell me what ya think!!!! i need to finish the rest of the body work now but at least everything lines up on the front and isnt all jacked up!

also the carbon fiber hood is fine ill probably put it back on in the spring thanks for looking!!!

I think you're doing well with the car now. K series would definately be FTW. I'm not a fan of Slipstreams... I'm much more into, more of an "individual" statement (funny because I'm rocking the most played-out drifter wheels on the market).

Nice car and I'm glad you're actually driving it.

iwantspeed
i compete with alot of civics wv's it all depends nothing heavily modified boilermaker would be able to tell you more about sts i just run it cause thats what the seasoned vets said i should run ive only competed in last season but i anxiously awaiting the start of this season i placed several times and im hoping for more/higher placment

boilermaker1
i was not aware that xbraces we not legal for sts and honestly i dont even really see a difference in it in the spring when i put on a front sway ill probably take it off

projek98
its an oem rs lip kit from the civic ferio in japan

and to the others i do like slips but im not a fan im tired of having the same wheels as everyone else iwant something different IE those meshes i mentioned b4

and the k series build will be starting eventually plans are k24 bottom end k20a2 head and a2 tranny

thanks for the comments its nothing special just my daily driver/weekened warrior

That's one clean looking ES, there. I'd say for rims, a set of SSR Formula Mesh's (bronze with polished lip) or maybe some Work Equip 03's wouldn't be so bad.

lol @ andy ^^ haha


im lovin the sedan looks really clean, LOVE the stance and the fog/cf hood/headlight ....it all looks really good together ........if i could do it over again i would get a cf lip and some yellow fogs instead of my OEM lip ...i think fogs would look wierd w/ that

for your car ..good job bud

I don't want to thread hi-jack but you painted the part that reflects the light? IE behind the low/high beam blub?
