Here's my car...

Well, I've posted a pic here and there in the detailing section, but never in here. This is my car. Except for OEM fogs and upgraded brakes, I'm pretty much done.

Keep in mind I'm no photographer by any means. The pix don't do the paint any justice. In anycase, thanks for looking.

Very nice ride. I love your future plans as well, but I would add clearing headlights into it.

But damn, looking again and again at your pictures.. want to detail my car??

Thanks man. The rims are 18 x 7.5. As per dropping it more, I just wanted a decent drop that wouldn't cause too much trouble, roughness, etc... Thanks for the input.

Mikemal: Mogwai is great band. As far as using them as my screen name, that was unoriginality on my part LOL. Thanks man.

Everyone else: Thanks for all the comments.

THE BEST red civic on the site. i just wish you could tint the front windows but i know its illegal. if you come over here we will be the only two civics that even have wax on them no joke! i think 90% of people here don't know what wax is let alone other stuff like clay and glaze.

It's an HKS Hi Power exhaust.

Karumba: Thanks man. I've thought about clearing the headlights, but hate the idea of taking them apart. Later on down the line I don't want water/condensation getting in there.

Everyone: Thanks again.

Thanks man! I wouldn't call it the best, though... there's this red one on here with 5Zigen GN+ that made my jaw drop. Your ride is clean too.

Actually, I'm not a big fan of tint on a red car. Sometimes I just want to take it off. I think it looks cleaner without the tint, but it's just that my rear seats are starting to fade.

As far as waxing, I know what you mean. Most people think I just wash my car to get it like that. LOL

it looks nice but those rims look too huge for your oem lip kit, you should down size it to 17"s, those look like they're 18"s? i think.. but yea other then the rim size i like everything the way it is

Thanks guys.

Yuogotown3d: It's Fletcher Parkway. As for the lighting, it was kind of dark in there. It was either adjust to correct to the color of my car or the light outside. Also, my camera isn't that flexible; I can only adjust the shutter speed.

xkimsungminx: Sometimes I feel like switching to 16" Gram Lights 57s, but I keep having to remind myself that I'm done with the car. LOL

Thanks man. It's an angled exhaust, otherwise it lines up where it's supposed too. I know it's not for everyone. I even had second thoughts when I first put it on. It has since grown on me. LOL

Yeah the angled exhaust looks pretty good. Like some things, it depends on the car.
