I wouldn't call this a build thread,

[Romeo]

Just more of an improvement thread. haha. But no worries, there will be some building going on soon. But anyway, the car is a '98 Civic DX. When i got it the car had an Injen intake, Some sorta exhaust and big, loud muffler, some lowering springs, no radio or speakers, the interior was very very dirty(as was the whole entire car), and put in the Si's tails. I already had the HX's, but i had to put them on the car to get it home. The rims that were on it were quite ugly and had garbage tires. I also had to put new front pads and a new driver's side caliper on. I had brand new Kumho's put on the Hx's. They ride great and got a great deal on them. I've done some things and spent some money on it. Here's some pictures of the progress::..
Just after i got it:


Cleaned up a little:

Cut this Turd off and welded on a Magnaflow muffler:

Ordered a new bumper and front and rear lip:
Before:

After:

Front:

Then installed the fog lights:

And how she sits today:




I'm really happy with the car. Everything is there. It rides great, drives great, and it's come a long way in the short time i've had it. It's going to be getting even more goodies here soon. So be on the look out.

That sucks. You should just sell that Accord to someone who might fix it and drive it. Later, QD.

Yeah, the headlights aren't my favorite. But they're not too bad. I'm trying to decide whether i want to just get the bumper painted, or wait and get the whole car done.

Me too. I love the way it looks. But i plan on waiting. I'm not sure what exactly i'm going to do with the car now. I'm undecided whether to build it, or order a car from overseas. I'm leaning more towards the 2nd one and keeping this my D-dizzle. I love the cold A/c!
