Clips are what you use in the old bolt action rifles that feed cartriges into the internal magazine. Now we use external/removeable magazines.

how about 03 hybrid bumper? would have to paint it tho. i like the mesh that has a criss cross diamond pattern like the upper tezza grill. you may check hardware store and craft store. make sure its strong enough that it doesnt deform easily. otherwise it will look like crap when the wind hits it or rocks dent it.

I was never quite a fan of the 03 hybrid bumper.. For some reason, the vertical piece in the center kills the look for me 
I like how the grillcraft lower grill mesh looks in black, but that **** is spendy..
I was also thinking about grabbing either a buddy club 2 or tsunami kit, and spend a weekend in San Diego where my buddy can paint and install it. All I'd have to pay for would be paint and maybe some beer. Now, I know most of you don't like body kits, but those are the only two I'd ever consider putting on my car.
Either that or get another OEM bumper and a nice lip kit, and doing the same San Diego steps.. lol

Now that I'm on my 2nd car that is impossible to see out of, I really feel the need to tell you that the mirror is ridiculous. A civic's blind spot is all but non-existent if you align the OEM mirrors up correctly.
Bottom line, if you have problems with blind spots in a 7th gen civic, it's not the car.
Now that I got that out of the way, I really like those seats. Which ones are they?

I know the mirror is ridiculous. I kinda like it though. I originally got it just for ***** and giggles, but it's proved its usefulness. It annoys the **** out of me when people sit in my blind spot, which seems to happen more than I'd like. Like it or hate it, I have one
The though has crossed my mind a few times of ditching it for a regular broadway mirror.
The seats are Sparco Monzas, which I don't think they make anymore. It seems as if they made them for a limited time only. I went to a shop in WA with the intention of getting some Recaro Sports, then I saw these for a couple hundred bucks cheaper per seat, and just as comfy, so I opted for these.

Fair enough. As long as you like them, it's your car!
Good buy on the Monzas!

Wink mirror isnt really necessary, a 300mm broadway is far more than sufficient 
But that mirror's good for sticker bombing lol

Re: ZOMG LOOK AT MY CAR!! lol.. **HATERS WELCOME**
at the thread title.. hehe.. Anyways, got bored and decided to give my baby a little bit of a damp rag wipedown. I started wiping her down, then I started wiping down the engine bay, then decided to pull all the **** that was just sitting there from old installs (wires and whatnot from boost controller, siren from the alarm I pulled from my car a long time ago, etc..).. That involved me going into my dash and cleaning up wires under there, then I started pulling all the wires from under my dash that weren't doing anything.. lol..
If you've ever read the picture book "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie," that's pretty much what I ended up doing. After I was done, I figure I needed to play around with my new camera today, and here are the results. Lemme know what you think, and like the title says, haters are welcome to hate. hahaha
and before any of you say it, I know my rims, front bumper, and hood are beat to ****.. Front bumper due to having hella highway miles, and hood from weather damage due to sitting out exposed to the elements while I was out to sea for months at a time.
Gotta have the photoshop cutaway hood picture
And the engine bay is SMASHING. I still have the standard fittings as it is. Please what adjustment did you do. I would like to do that in my next order. As well as adjustments to the shocks, mine are killing me-too low even though I'm riding on Pirelli 195/70 r14 P4 series.

I gotsta know... do those hoodpins you got let water pass through to the engine bay? I have standard pins running on the edge but been wondering about changing them out.
Here is what I got, but I have a stainless pair now. In the pic they are my old cheap ones but you get the idea.

Lol, I hate how my hood is frosty.. It's just faded to **** carbon fiber.. D:
If you're talking about how it's "transparent," that was done in photoshop
you've been PMed about retrofit bidness.. lol.. And standard fittings... adjustments... wat..?
try www.hondaautomotiveparts.com or your local honda dealership.. things like this, majestic honda might not be worth the "savings"
No water leakage noteworthy, so I've noticed, at least.
I'm about to get rid of it.. It didn't fare well in the Vegas heat and warped and cracked in numerous places. I have an OEM mirror (since my old one broke, hence the wink mirror), and I'm gonna nab a 240mm convex broadway mirror, so it doesn't interfere with my visors (unless someone can show me how to rock a 270mm or 300mm broadway and still have full use of my visors)
lol.. still better than the stock 110hp (wheel horsepower for a d17a2 MT)

Gives you a really bad sense of distance, especially parallel parking.
I have 80% usage of my visors with the 300mm :P

I don't use my rear view mirror while parallel parking.
do you have pics of your 300mm laying around? or can you show me what the clearance is? the OEM mirror is ~240mm, thats why I was gonna opt for it. The way I have the wink mirror setup, the range of motion is closed to straight down, no more
