    Default Trying to clean up my civic

    Not really a know-it-all, but trying to get my civic looking clean. Any tips or suggestions?
    I am thinking new wheels and tires next.

    I was thinking along the same lines.

    The last thing you want to do is ask everyone else what YOU should do with YOUR car. Do what you want to to it, OP, and forget about people like me that probably won't like it. It's your car note, homey, do what you want. Later, QD.

    Ok here we go tryna make it clean
    1. Put your hubcaps back on
    2. Go to autozone and buy air freshner , tire shine some of mcGuire's fast spray wax
    3. Drive to my job (carwash)
    4. Buy a 4.99 carwash
    5. Once you get out the wash we provide you with free paper towels glass cleaner and free vacumms use them but make sure you return the bottles bc all it is is water and a drop of blue die that makes it look like windex but if you're really that cheap and need a spray bottle with water go ahead and take it once your done with that close your doors spray the wax wipe it off with our towels make it nice and shiny then put the tire shine on then vuala got your self a nice CLEAN looking CIVIC.

    P.S. if you need help ill be in the office drinking a soda in the ac while I wait for the next civic to come by... Lmao

    [EpicVoice] See there's a trick to making this model of civic "clean" you can't go with the conventional lip, wheels, springs and make it there. It just won't flow right with these, that's why so few people ever get them right. It's a well hidden secret among a select few as to how to get these to look nice. A combination of grace and performance, beauty and beast, finesse and power, you can't just slap any old part on there and do the job, it has to be chosen, NO it must choose you. and with that being said

    you need a nice sized front mount and nicer sized turbo to be fed. Everybody respects power. Fuction = the perfect form. I you're makin the power to back it up, you could rock steelies, altezzas, and a park bench and still nobody would f*** with u [/Epic Voice]

    blwcivic,

    Please if you're going to make a thread like this one, at least post up some pictures that show us the car. I'm not suggesting getting a better camera. I'm suggesting parking your car in the sunlight and taking pictures of the actual car, not just random inconsequential shots that don't show shit. Those pics say "I'm too lazy to take actual photos" to me and are a complete waste of bandwidth.

    I'd rather see QD's old balls than car pics that look like something from Picasso's blue period.

    The last picture was supposed to be a more full shot of the car but the link is broken. I can upload more, but you guys seem to have your minds made up anyway.

    Lip, wheels, fogs = clean civic. Does not mean it will be unique though.

    I don't know how much I like how low that baby blue one is. On my model (and yes it is stock 2003) it just doesn't look right.

    It's just a lot different than the other styles imo. I bought this one over a 94 4-door.
