Hey its been a while :/

Hey guys it has been a while since I've last posted! I was never a recognized member in this forum, but I really do love this place. I finally have a reliable computer so I'm sure I'll be on this thing a lot more now. I've been crazy busy with work and school. I made a deal with my grandparents that once I graduate they'll help me out with a K swap or turbo. So I have to study study study =] I got some newish pictures to share... ready....set.....go!!


The dirtiest 7thgen ever?




Now nice and clean =] I want a new camera. I dont think these pictures do any justice to all my hard work







Installed my HKS a couple weeks ago. I love it!







Also got me a front lip! Soon to be installed..




My car really doesnt sit this low, but I wouldn't mind dropping it that much... coilovers or GC's w/ Koni's are for sure my next mod.







Thanks for looking! All feedback is gladly accepted =]

Thanks man! I love my grandparents. They originally wanted to (generously) help me get me a brand new car (08 si or 08 wrx) but I had to turn it down because I dont think I can handle another car payment. And I think my car is perfectly fine. And finally paid off =] But anyways, yeah dude, I really want to do a DIY on painting my door handles and trunk trim SSM. I hear removing the door handles is a pain though.. I'm dropped on Progress springs. 1.8" F and 2.0" R on stock shocks.

Haha thanks man. I was driving around like that for quite some time. All that dust and dirt was extremely thick since I let it bake in the sun and all.

Re: Hey its been a while :/

From college. I'm 20 but after high school I never really took my schooling seriously. So my grandparents made that nice deal with me. Just two more years... No rush though =] In the meantime I'll just save up for new suspension or something. This car is ever so slowly becoming what I want it to be.

So me and my friend are sitting here, wondering about your username.. and she asks "is your phone an envy?" haha

Re: Hey its been a while :/

Thanks dude! Ahhh I couldn't tell you what percent tint I got... I got it done the first day I bought the car.. I want to say 35% in the front and 30% on the backseat windows and rear. The wheels are 17inches B) I wanted them in 16s but couldnt wait. Still looks good I think.

Haha I appreciate the comments and input guys!

LG Envy represent!

Does honda or anyone make that silver painted trim peice for the trunk? Or am I better off DIY'ing it or taking it to an auto body shop? I really want to get that and my door handles SSM.

Re: Hey its been a while :/

you can buy the trim piece for the EX coupe. it comes prepainted. same with the door handles but those look okay black to me.

Re: Hey its been a while :/

Awesome, thanks guys!

SSMcivic2k5- I actually have a question for you. Is your front lip polyurethane? Cause mine is ABS plastic from an 99-00 civic and it cracked when I tried installing it today. I was excited to get that thing on too. What a sad day.
