[graveltravel]

Those rims are BAD ASS ! ! GL trying to find some...

[graveltravel]

i actually found a set dirt cheap.... but there were banged up pretty badly.
and now since honda-tech is screwed up since they went to a new forum layout, nobody gets on there anymore. sooo, finding a set will be tougher now.
but, all in all.... they are still pretty cheap. probably around 500 bucks for a set.

[csmiths]

looking good man

[LIKEG6]

Looks good. Where does everyone from B-ham scene hang out at?

My aunt lives up there and I worked there for a while and could never find anyone anywhere, besides rice

[graveltravel]

all the clean rides usually stay home in lock and key.
theres a clean scene here like in atl.
we usually have a ht meet here around late summer/early fall.
the car scene here in bham is slowly fading away.

[DB4LYFE ™]

[graveltravel]

lol, it wasnt primed.... the clear was sanded off and gave it a primer look.

[NevrNufTorq]

man that thing looks great now and bet it's a blast to drive with its power to weight ratio :cheers:

[amandDA]

looks wayy better!!! paint set it off

[4uh8ers]

Nice lookin ej man. What suspension set up you runnin???

[Mr. Clean]

why the flat clear? would love to see this beast shine.

[Dwisforme05]

id loose the bra on the car. would look 10x better i think.

[DB4LYFE ™]

[SouthrnStyle]

Great turnaround i like it on those wheels.

[noridetoolow]

Look good!

[graveltravel]

thanks fellas thanksss

well the paint issue.........
it was supposed to be satin black w/ flat clear.... basically like the skunk2 cars.
the painters screwed up. they gave me such a good "deal" that they werent going to respray it. im still pissed about it.
the bra issue is because there a nice rock chip on the hood... and i happen to like the whole bra look. its "jdm y0"!
and yes the car is a blast to drive. runs 13.7's. need to be faster.so , im looking into buying a custom header next week from a guy on here. new exaust from collecter back. get the engine to breath better....
and wheels wheels wheels wheelsssssssssssss...............
like these!!!

all this and im trying to get my daily driver running...90 civic lx auto ftl.
but its gonna be slammed on skank2's!

[graveltravel]

ohh and the camera issue is because i cant take pics for shit.
its a 5.0 camera... but i think ill buy the wife a nice 500 buck one for x-mas.

[FasTech]

With the 13.7, were you running slicks?

If not, slicks will get you down just alittle.

[Black4DrEK]

Nice man, I like the bra thing.

but I would of kept the SI's over the HX's. IMO still looks good tho!!!:goodjob:

[graveltravel]

ya i hate both really though....
the hx's will be going on my dd ... my 90 4 door ef.

[DunDunSkeert]
