So I've had my civic and been on this site for more than a year, but for some reason I never posted any pics of it.
I bought it bone stock it pretty much still is except for:
AEM V2 Intake
Sony Head Unit
The wiring for LED mood lighting under the seats (LEDs are being shipped from Hong Kong right now)
I'm in college (broke) so I don't really have a lot of money to throw into it but I'm working at it in little steps.
Well, here's my 5 speed '04 EX Coupe...finally

Re: about time HINDUDE got some pics up here
Looks good
needs a drop like mad tho.. lol..
I'm just curious as to why the emblem on your v2 is in a different place than mine's is.. Where your emblem is, I have CARB E.O. numbers, and my "AEM V2" emblem is on the bigger pipe..
What you got going on under the center console bit? Wiring for the mood lighting? If so, I woulda ran it under the carpet and taped it to the massive bit of wiring running under the center console

It's what I do

Re: about time HINDUDE got some pics up here
that's strange about the intake. mine came all packaged up with no stickers on it but it had the sticker with it. I just thought that's how they came so I put AEM sticker on where I thought it looked good. I don't have the CARB stickers anywhere on it and it didn't come with them.
As far at the wiring goes, I don't know why I didn't think to wire under the carpet. That sounds like a better way to tuck all the wires. Was it tough to route them? I'm gonna give it a shot in about 2 hours cause I have time today. I don't know how else to describe the lights i'm putting in ither than mood lighting but i'll throw some pictures up as soon as I get it in.
I don't know about dropping it yet cause i'm afraid i might scrape at the entrance to my apartment at school. it's steep, but that mod might happen later.

Re: about time HINDUDE got some pics up here
The only wires I have routed under the carpet are all the wires transmitting sound (speaker/RCA cables). It's a pain in the *** to do, but it tucks the wires very well. If I do some under seat lighting, I'd definitely run them under the carpet. And since you got your center console up, you'll see a thick bunch of wires running to the front of the car under that piece. I'd just take 2-3" of electrical tape, and secure the wiring to that ever 4-6" or so.

Re: about time HINDUDE got some pics up here
I got the old wires pulled out and measured up new wires to to fit under the carpet better. cut and soldered everything yesterday. I'll finish the wire tuck today. really wish those LEDs were in. i want to finish it all before i head back to school.
