Rep Power: 0 a timeline of my ride 20 pics inside (56k-suffer)
im bored at the moment so i just put a little picture timeline of my ride. just showing exterior mods.
first ride:
i dont have a picture of my ride when i first got it but as you can see from the first picture... my first mods were: lowered, grille, and fogs.
got some red gt3's
back on my stocks and WOH (white out headlights) and yellow film on fogs
with type r style lip
got some new rims with painted oem grille
then sported some black ls meshies with oem headlights back on
back on my goldies with some walmart fogs
paited black meshies purple
put on some BOH
oem headlights back on with painted front lip and rs grille.
added side markers, rear trunk lip, and window visor along with the goldies back on
traded the purple meshies for these drags
goldies back on with unpainted side skirts
then painted side skirts
then how it sits as of yesterday with my surf board rack.
more mods to come....

In three years you have managed a woping 15 post!
Last two pics are by far the best, that purple looked awful.
good job other wise and a overall clean car.

Why the hell didn't you submit for ROTM? You would have had my vote.
And yeah, I liked the white-on-gold phase the best.

Am I the only one who things they're all Photoshopped? In fact, it looks like you stole my wheels for some of the pictures:
Even more because of your rear discs in the side shot with the gold rims, but you don't mention anywhere about a disc conversion on your car.
Maybe I'm wrong, but damn. It looks like it. And if not, those gold wheels are amazing, I really like them.

In fact, according to your Photobucket, you HAVE been playing with Photoshop!

Calm down, DeX. Those pics aren't photoshopped, at least not the gold ones. If anything, those pics in his photobucket testify that the pictures aren't photoshopped. They're too realistic-looking.
I think this is you:

ahha the photoshopped comments quickly come out
but i would agree those purple rims were sinful ugly, even b4 you painted them purple they looked kinda funny and cheap looking. but your goldie phase was a fav for me

i like the way that it sits now. most of the phases look good and the car has seemingly stayed pretty clean throughout your years with it. i like it.

haha, well if they aren't Photoshopped, your ride is hot. Not sure if I ever seen a gold wheel with a polished lip before, did you do a disc conversion?

I thought the same thing, DEX. Rear discs? I'm proud to announce that swap but no mention of it....? Smells fishy to me too man.

Very, very clean looking civic man. What size are those wheels? Particularly the drag-style ones. Also what brand springs or coilovers are you using for that drop, and how much of a drop is it? I'm considering getting one of those lips like you have and then dropping it, but I don't want to have to worry about scraping the lip on the ground when I come to a slight hill. Do you have any problems with that?

thanks for the comments guys...
all the pictures are real. i only used photoshop for color editing. as for the picture that looked like i did a rear disk conversion... thats just a brake cover but i took it off. for the rims.... i would say the goldies are the best also. i just have the gunmetals on right now cuz i need new tires in the back for the gold ones. i would never get rid of the golds. im also dropped on skunk2 coilovers. im planning on going groundcontrols soon.

Thats alot of different things. Nice work! I like how it sits now. Surf rack ftw. Too bad PA doesn't have an ocean. We need to consume NJ already.
