New to the World.

Hello guys! My name's Chris and I stumbled upon this site because of google. Anyways, I have a 97 Lx sedan and I'm just getting started in the world of mods and such. My civic has 220k miles on it, so I don't want to do too much, but I want it to look nice. Anyways, Just saying hello!

I'll post some as soon as I'm home! At work right now lol.
Uhm, nothing too major, its got 220k miles on it. I'm holding back a little to see if I keep it, or buy a newer one (the new 12 si sedan 6 speed is banging)
Also, how do I invert the thread? (the posts are reading from the bottom, up)

Re: New to the World.

Thanks for that!
Right now, the only mods to my civic are two
Rockford Fosgate tens in the trunk, a 500 watt amp
And a new exhaust and headers. Idk what brand, it was
given to me.

Going to dinner with my parents, pics coming when I'm home.

*EDIT* I'm lazy, and I can't post pics from my phone, will have
to do it tomorrow.

Re: New to the World.

Fixed all your broken image links.
I assume that's how you wanted to present it.

But looks good, it seems to be in great condition for 220k miles.

If it was down to me, I wouldn't do anything but change out the wheels for a nicer set of OEM alloy wheels.

Yes, thanks! How'd you do it??
Thanks! I work at a dealership, so I can essentially have access to anything I need. The paint is terrible in some spots though, will post some after work.
I'll check into some, thanks!

Re: New to the World.

Photobucket has some links to the right or bottom of the image, that tells you the [IMG] tags.
Just copy those tags, and paste them into the forum, they should work perfectly.

And I'm not sure about the new Si's
They don't look good at all, and plus, this vic probably will get better mpg with proper maintenance.

Okay, sweet thanks boss!
Yea, I was reading the specs on the sticker.
As for wheels, I was thinking maybe a set of integra ls mesh wheels?
