More pics of me car after 1 weekends worth of work.... 56K i laugh in your face

i needed something to relieve me from my pain from exam week so i decided to take care of my car and personalize it. i took the amber outuv the headlights (found out that it's illegal in my state), i had another 7th genner come over and he helped me paint my calipers and tint the taillights. i'll be getting a few hundred dollars for christmas and i want to invest it in the car. now my question for you guys is, what do you recommend i do to my car next?

btw i'm thinking of lowering it about 1.7'' but i want to see if there are any other things i should look into before lowering.









HONDA POWER


the license plate frame is coming off today.

thanks for that majinB

yea i dn't have the money for quality drop, so i'm going to go looking for something else. i have a good friend that could possibly install a flywheel for free so i'm looking into that. if that doesn't work out, i may upgrade the sound system. i'm looking for more performance though. what else do you guys think i should consider?

EDIT: ahaha guys i took off the license plate frame, it's sittin right here beside me.

Remove the "ex" and "civic" emblems on the rear. That's all I can think of right now.

i suggest:

-BRAKES! nothing makes your car feel like a million bucks like a new set of quality pads and rotors.
-revo short shifter if you dont have one already.
-good tires, rims if you can afford them
-rsx-s or other rear sway bar. I put this in my gf's 03 sedan and it made a night and day difference in handling. She loves it. I have a progress bar in my car and love it.
-finally, hold off on your spending and save your money and buy yourself some sweet springs/shocks or coilovers next year...

yea, the dude bought go karts and camera lenses.

i was watchin an infomercial last weekend about a book that tells you how to sell stuff on ebay. they had people on the show that made over 40K a month. the trick is to buy storage rooms like packrat on wholesale, and sell whatever junk is inside the storage room.

i saw the informercial suckering me in to buy a book that tells me how to sucker others into buying my ****. so i didn't buy it.

EDIT: this was post 1,111

An example of ebay F^ckers is that they had other usernames and in the final minutes they bid on their items, this happened a lot with the XBOX 360
