So just because i have a swap...does it mean its ok to drive 100mph down a school zone? no..didn't think so.

Your comment is also very contradicting with your signature "If you drive rice, dont expect me to be nice"

Not hating, but why do this? Does it give him an extra 563737+ HP? The wire tuck is awesome though.

That sh*t is playing with my head. Makes it look like the engine bay is bigger than it really is. The tuck is probably playing into that too.

i don't think he was being serious. maybe everyone should start highlighting their sarcasm in red.

mine is mildly tucked, if i had recent pics i'd post them. the thing that makes the 7th gen bay not look as clean is how high up the steering rack is compared to older civics.

Re: Do you dig this engine bay??

Like the car and the turbo, hate the bay...I realize it took you lots of time to do but it would be much better if you had some not so easy to see stuff under the hood, like hidden paint work that you can only see with a closer look. It says a lot more about the car with stuff like that. Than again just my opinion.

Re: Do you dig this engine bay??

thanks for all the comments guys.

sorry i did not do something so in the norm.

but then again this car was not built for everyone.

i am not going to sit here and try to back up all your **** talking.

when it all comes down to it my car makes me happy

some day. you guys will understand that and make your car for you. and not your E-homies.

thanks rufus!

Re: Do you dig this engine bay??

Wow.... ease up man. From what I can see she looks pretty cute. Guess I shouldn't be giving kudos to people who snag good ones.

Oh, and by the way,

The car is horrendous. I hope the hood never gets opened again or even better, the car gets consumed in a fiery crash and nothing is salvageable.

Less than fifteen per cent of the people do any original thinking on any subject . . . The greatest torture in the world for most people is to think.

obviously you do not.

I would not expect someone like you to understand or grasp simple things. For example, your comments are nothing but failed attempts to "e thug" but really have no thought process into them at all. why would you ever wish for any person to ever get into a fiery crash. asking that upon anyone is just asking for karma and your mother be the driver of the other car.

I am asking you this. although I know it wont happen. Please show me where you are able to think not so square. Please show me where YOU my friend have done something that people have not liked. that's when I know. you have thought for yourself and not like a heard.
