    Default Traded the Rex for a 96 Civic Coupe....

    Yep. I didn't want to part ways with my 90 CRX Si, but I needed something with full interior for my new born baby girl!!!!

    The rexxxy...

    -----


    Crappy pic of the coupe...


    The car didn't have a front lip and it had stock grill, so I picked up the (lame) front lip and grill LOL
    ANY LIP IS BETTER THAN NO LIP... most of the time (if ya ask me)
    But I want to get a better front lip fasho... And some nice 16's
    Drop it a bit more and get whatever JDM parts I can find!

    LMK what yall think........

    PUT SUM FOGS IN (still need different front lip/and sum 16's)

    Tooooo many plans... probably never get to do half the sh!t I want to do, but I'll do the other half LOL

    Need sum clean 16's, nicer front lip, a little bit lower, OEM window visors and rear window visor.
    That's about it for a minute.... I'd be happier with that stuff on the car.
    I got yellow fogs, just haven't put them on yet.

    I would polish the Si's and paint the grill, lip, mirrors, and side skirts silver. That's just my opinion though. If all the parts were
    color matched it would help everything flow better. It looks good, but I think the two tone is a little distracting.

    The only reason I havent color matched the lip is cuz I want a different one. Put that one on there just to have a lip vs none lol
    Been thinking of color matching the grill and mirrors though just havent done it haha
    And yeah, green em1 wheels arent that cool... the wheels in great shape though so they would look great stripped/polished
