    Default New Addition to the Family!!!!!

    Well there is, hopefully, going to be a new addition to my family soon. Its a 2000 Civic Si with 5X,000 miles on it. The color is from a newer Accord, but noting else is like any other honda. The door handels and moldings are shaved. The entire interior is fiberglassed. The rear bumper is molded into the back end of the car. The tail lights have been shaved and hopefully authentic BMW tail lights are going to be put into the trunk. The trunk has been shaved. It has an AIR RIDE system, air cylinders. DC sport headers, stock cat, but new piping all the was back. AEM cold air intake, but stock internals. The front hood is full fiberglass, custom to the car, and also on the trunk theres a little wing/lip molded into it. Finally here is the great part, authentic R32 Skyline headlights. The front core support was modifed to fit, great work. Also on the inside the headline is all fiberglass and everything will be painted the blue color. Also the car has bucket seats, but no rear. All in all I think its a great car....So just wanted to get some input on it. I am posting up pictures of what it looks like right this second....I will be purchasing it within the next from months if everything goes alright....Let me know anycomments on what should be added, cars going to be a weekend car/show.....maybe 50 miles a week.

    Unless you have some major engine work planned... I don't/won't like it... I personally don't like wild body kits and all show, no go cars.... But thats just me.

    That should be pretty cool. Not sure if I agree with having air ride on an Si, but that's just me. Other than that, it should be pretty sweet.

    I never knew it had an air ride system. I have never really liked this idea except on mini trucks but hey, its being thrown in with the package. Also the only reason I cant afford it right this second is because I have the pay for the car, then for the car to be finished. O could get the car next week with a loan but to finish it, theres going to be a few more bucks to that. Also motor wise. I plan to use this car as a weekend car/when its sunny/show car. So once I get the body done, I plan to do a few more things to the motor. I am also not a fan of all the "ALL SHOW NO GO", but I dont know how long it will tke to auctually build the motor. I just started school so I just got raped with tuition and with no HOPE that means its right out of my pocket so there goes $2000. But hey it will pay off one day. And for the car, once I get it, HOPEFULLY it will win show and a few races one day.

    FINALLY!!! They are R34 lights? I didnt know, I asked the owner and he really didnt remember, he started the car 2 years ago and barely remembered the mialage on the damn thing let alone what was put on it . Well atleast for now on I can tell everyone they are R34 instead of 32...but I do know they are authentic R34 lights. THey were bought 2 years ago for something like $1000 a set....or so I was told. Dont know if they really were this much but hey, all I know is that they look GREAT...I will keep yall informed. Hopefully more pics will pop up here and there on the fourms once I get it.
