how did you get the front grille to attach to your bumper?

will the 05 tail lights fit my 2001 civic coupe?

i think the whole front bumper should be put back to stock. everything else isnt bad. yes 05 tails will fit with some rewiring since the bulb sockets are a bit different. but shape is the same. they also have some nice led tails on ebay that are similar to the 05 type.

check ebay. they have oem style fogs for $40, and i like the "altezza" black mesh grill.

Do you know if people have had good experiences with those tails? Would you still need to mod the wiring to make them fit in an 01-03?

I want to purchase a turbo for my 2008 civic si.. I am thinking of going with fullrace but not sure what the best bang for my buck is?

Awjvail

So basically every cosmetic thing he's done to his car?




Yeah - me too. Except my car is SSM which sometimes does not take well to mods such as these.

Also, I love the bra on his car for some reason. Once again, it might look stupid on an SSM civic.



Reading comprehension ftw.

I recommend getting an electric turbo. They r hawt.

not gonna lie, i think the lambo doors and those rims are pretty awesome even if they are rice. but not really liking the front and back bumper, go back to stock on those imo and it should look much better. kinda surprised it didn't have a bleacher on the back with all those things done to it

if you want to be guaranteed that 04-05 led tails work good, get one of the better brand name sets (I use Sonar) and so far they have been good to me. the leds are SUPER bright and high quality and i havent had a problem with them yet. they are also built well. if you want i can also take a picture of the wiring itself too.

the tail lights will physically fit perfectly and bolt in no problem. as for the wiring, yes you have to mod the wiring to install them into an 01-03. you will need to find a 7440 single filament socket (socket with two wires) that fits into the tail light housing for your signal light. you splice that new socket into the existing 3156 signal light wires and thats it. your brake light will plug right into the leds, and the reverse socket will twist right in place.

**just for reference - by installing these led tail lights you WILL lose your cruise control unless you activate your 3rd brake light. (there must be an actual bulb in the braking system somewhere or your cruise control wont work).

Awjvail

what do you mean unless you activate your 3rd brake light? Isn't it already activated?

and yes, pics of your lights would be good. Thanks

there is a cruise control fix floating around you just add a resistor to the cruise modulator box under the hood.

there's an easier way to do the taillight conversion. Might be considered a "hack" job but I've had it for years with no problems.
Buy 04-05 tails

just get the turn signal bulb for the 04-05 coupe tails. trim connectors and sockets so they fit. that's it
