My UKDM 7thgen, SSM Coupe

Well, i've been here a while but only posted pics of her stock up to now... well, here's my car!!!! I went out in the cold with my brother to the local industrial estate cos i didn't want to drive far and get it all shitted up again.

Beware, there'a a lot of pics... I thought i might as well take a good few while i was there...

Feel free to comment, good or bad (or if you can't be bothered, fair enough =) )... i don't mind what you say, cos i loves her anyways, innit y0!

I know i'm not "slammed", but round where i live it just isn't possible, the roads are awful.

































Opinions? Praise? Pointing and laughing? Bring it on... it's all good.

UKDM RHD ftw! =)

Can you take a pic of that front bumper WITHOUT the front plate and braket on it? It looks exactly like what we want over here by not having the flat spot for a plate.

Thanks, yes it is a fog lamp, it's been VERY foggy/misty here the last few days and believe me, following a car with a rear fog lamp switched on, during a dark, fast, night time misty drive is a lot easier than following a car without one switched on...if you see what i mean...
If you're caning along a dark country road and it's foggy, a slower car in front can almost literally jump out at you if it's foggy enough - and it has been lately... the rear fog's been getting plenty of use!

I could do... but that would mean taking the bumper off (i think), to get to the screws... i believe it is screwed through the bumper itself, and it would leave holes that needed to be filled, smoothed and painted etc... But i'll try to have a peek and see exactly what's what for ya


Originally Posted by 1sykcivic

Right, no offense to ANYONE , but i've been asked this question about 63,231,734,794 times now on lots of different sites.

So here goes... deep breath...

Mirrors: $207 each - without taxing, delivery to me and shipping to you.

Fog Assembly: $70-$100 again, as above (the rate of this part has varied everytime i've enquired about it... dont ask me why ??????? lolz)

Tail Lights: $175 each (approx, i honestly cant remember), again, no shipping, taxes etc etc

Fenders with repeater holes: $313 each side, as above... etc

There are fog assemblys almost identical available from jdmland.com (i think that's where they're from...) that are meant for the Integra, but they look almost the same as mine to me. And they're a lot cheaper!

Thank you, i love my rims too... i loved them since i first saw them and just had to have them.

I've got KW Variant 1 Coilovers, not slammed because the road surfaces around where i live are shcoking in some places and i'd have knackered bumpers/fenders within minutes! I just wanted them wound down to a sensible daily drive-able height that looked half decent too.

Thanks fo the kind words.

Cheers mate... yeah, bronze on silver tends to be a love-it or hate-it thing... that's cool, each to their own and all that. But you like mine, so yay, lolz

A lip kit is coming, and perhaps some carbon too.

Thanks!

Well thanks, nice first post by the way. Mind you, i did say "All comments, good or bad!"....

It sounds like you're the one who's retarded, it's not a "back bumper reflector thing", it's a UK Legal requirement Fog Light, for better visibility in foggy/misty conditions... and believe me, they work!!! I didn't put the bloody thing there anyway, it's standard fit!

How the hell can an inanimate fog lamp be retarded, anyway?

Thank you kindly. I'll be getting a lip kit and just about call it a day... except an exhaust, obviously!

I LOVE my tails... no way man, they're all mine!

Thanks man, i know it's only wheels, coils, (and SPC rear arm), but i just wanted to ***** her out a bit.
Modded EM2s in the UK are uber-rare (there's hardl any EM2s here as it is)and i bet i'm the only Civic in the UK with XD9s, let alone the only EM2 on Work's. w00t for me, yeeeaaah!!!

And no, the bumper and tails are mine!


Originally Posted by Civman500

Thanks you very much, i like the UKDM tails best too, which is lucky, cos that's what i've got

Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated. Lip, exhaust and maybe Carbon hood to come!!!

Thank you.

I've NEVER seen a UKDM with USDM tails, in fact you're lucky to see a modified EM2 over here at all. I know of about 5 altogether and all have stock UK tails... which, IMO are nicer anyway. Honda only brought about 11 EM2s over to the UK (slight exaggeration, but not far from the truth, seriously... you hardly EVER see one).

I'm not following how I am retarded? I just stated my opinion that the rear bumper in the UK looks retarded because of that foglight. I'm sorry i do not live in the UK like you and do not know the proper name for it since the USDM does not have it, once again thank you for critizing me for my opinion.
