Just thaught I'd post some pics of my ride today. Let me know what you think.

Nice ride! What suspension set up does it have?

[DJ Silkie]

Just a standard set of lowering springs nothing speacial. I don't remember what brand they are. I'm saving for air ride right now though. I need something with a bit better handling.

Oh come on it's not that bad. I happen to rather love the look of kits. I guess it's all personal preference. I think that bodykits are rather apealing when applied correctly. To me, they are an artistic cosmetic upgrade that gives the car character and an agressive look. Much more than just a lowered "sleeper".

As far as my rims go, They aren't on my favorite's list either. They were on there when I baught the car and havn't got new ones yet. I'll be getting a set of 18" jet black rims with a polished lip. Not sure what brand yet. Still shopping.

My engine blows balls. I do what I can to make it look as nice as it can get, but it still has alot of work to be done on it. My civic is definately all show and no go. It's slow as hell. But oh well, I don't race. I wanna get a v-tec. But I just don't have the money to afford an engine swap.

thats not an ex btw the ex has a D16Z6. look on the block right next to the header to see the engine you got. when i got my car it had a bunch of gay shit too. the guy had pulled the vents out and painted them white. the first thing i did was paint them back grey. i would much rather have a sleeper. with a sleeper it seems people seem to respect you more.

Wow lol. Turns out the guy that sold me the car didn't even know what he had. If it's not an EX then what DO I have? He ripped off all the emblems so idk.

Yeah, that is true though. Having a sleeper would earn you more respect. But I just can't bring myself to like the look of a sleeper. Personally I think if you are going to mod your car, mod it to a point where it fits you. And sleepers just aren't me. I wouldn't necessarily call myself a "ricer" though. Then I'd be driving a lime green civic with a 5" exaust and a $50 snap on aluminum spoiler.

Ok, I have a D16B7. That means that it's either a DX, CX, or LX. I'm sure it's not a CX though because my particular civic isn't a canadian model. I'll bet mostly on the DX. D16B7 Models have 102hp stock, I wonder what all the aftermarket pieces in my engine did to that.

[D16Z6_owner]

have you ran it at the local 1/4 mile track?

Naw not yet. I hadn't planned to at first. I am curious as to where I am right now though. I know I'm most likely not very fast. 115hp maybe.

looks nice except for the tails, idk about the fenders though

The Tails were one of those things that was already on the car when I baught it. I don't like them either. I'm saving for smoked lights to be a bit sleeker with the car.
