Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

ha. so many rim choices. i dunno. this is gonna take some thinking. im leaning more towards black with polished lip. cause everything in the car is black. headlights: black, tailights: black, interior: black, paint(other then the red..) black. so i think gunmetal rims might be a little off. i think black. but who knows. ill do some photochoping and see for sure.


by the way...anyone out there wanna make me a really dope sig. that would be really cool. thanks to anyone that can do that for me.

Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

Those are the tail lights I am about to order for my 04. Did you have any problems with fitment? I see that they say they fit 01-05 but I thought the 01-03 and 04-05 taillights weren't interchangeable. I am new so correct me if I am wrong. Also, I am planning on disassembling them and painting the black housing to match my body color. Does it look like it would be difficult to remove it is hard to tell from the pics.

Paint job is amazing btw.

Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

Looks good, but I would think you would have better unveiling pictures since you're sponsored and had a model and all. But the civic looks pretty cool... pictures don't look like they do justice.

Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

"seiber84" : there was some fitment issues. well...not really fitment. they fit in perfect but the wire had problems. they are not just plug and play. u would think u would plug the plugs just like the stock one, but they come with weird plugs so my buddy did they for me after i couldnt get them to work.

"dxr" : i dont see whats so wrong with the pictures but ok.

Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

thanks for the info. wiring them should not be a problem.

Any insight to how hard it is going to be to removed the black shroud? Will it pop out around all of those individual led's or do you think it is going to be much more complicated than that? I wish i had super "close up" pictures.

P.S. where did you purchase your set from?

Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

"seiber84" : im not sure how hard it is to remove that shroud. but when i get a chance i will take some super close up pics of the tails for u.
i didnt purchase them. Depo sent them to us direct for free.

"unevolved" : dude. thats really dope. i like it. any chance though that u could put the MotorWeb EM2 into the font that the company logo is in. like this:



like leave the MotorWeb part like it is in the picture with the red and silver color, but like the EM2 part in the yellow-ish color that my graphics are in. that would bee sweet. but i really like it man. that would be awesome if u could do that for me. no rush though. thanks bro.

Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

good for u bro. more power to u. i feel that there is more pride in the work if u put ur own money and work into it. i know i would be more proud of my ride if i knew i did all the work and paid for everything. but im still proud, but it takes more to do it yourself.

Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

I can't see the pic you posted, but I just went off the pictures of the car.

I'm assuming you mean something like this?




I'm on the school's computer right now, and for some reason it's blocking that picture. If you could rehost it on civicforums, I might be able to do a bit better.

Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

Pretty sweet i guess but there are a few things that would have made the car look overall better in my opinion! Like different rims, something black probably and you SHOULD get LED tails. Nice work though!

Re: im finally ready to show my car to everyone!

Simply well done. I'll post up what I come up with for a sig for you. I'm half in the bag tonight (11:30pm in Germany) so I don't want to take a stab at it tonight. Simply a nice ride. For payment all I want is one hour alone with the model. Heh, who am I kidding? 45 seconds should be enough!
