Cool New Pics Are up

Just in case anyone is interested, I posted the new pics of my car in the Members Rides Area. Think they look pretty good, but I need to find the right light to take better pics next time.

Anyhow, Just wanted to let you know, if you're interested.


Ciao!

ACK!! I just finished re-wiring my lights, and adding switches to everything. Also, put steel tubing around the wires for my alarm system. OMG! WHAT A FRIGGING JOB!!

Oh Well, now the inside looks alot better. I moved the neons under the dash and it looks way nicer now that all the wires are gone, and it's alot nicer having a switch hardwired that will control them!

All I did was buy a Fibre-Adhesive Window Film, and cut to fit. It gives the lights a very nice effect.

Thanks. Hopefully this winter I will be able to do more while it is sitting in the garage collecting dust. This was kind of a sucky year for me. Not much money, and even less time.

Dude, I'm not feeling the chrome hubcaps... I dont like chrome at all on a civic unless they're 19" Giovannis with a hefty drop.

The vinyls will draw wayy too much attention in a parking lot...It's gonna get the **** keyed out of it.

Worry about suspension first...attempt to put on the stock hubcaps back on...lose the vinyls... save your money, spend it on something more worthy to your car.

That is all.

Well, The caps are temporary. I'm quite sure that you all started out with the little things on your own cars as well, unless of course you had all kinds of money to dump in it right away.

And you know, we all have our personal preferences, which is what makes everyone unique. Some like vinyls, some don't. Some like 1.5 inch drops, some like 3.

In other words, I'm pretty happy with myself with how it has turned out, so far. It is by no means done. And no worries about some of the snyde comments. I'm not a little kid who can't take a bit of criticism. I may not be an expert ricer, or performance guru, but I'm sure I have a few tricks up my sleeve.

I don't like chrome caps either, but it was either caps for now, or the ugly gray covers from Honda. The decals thing I actually like, but not overdone, and the muffler is only part of the exhaust which was done.

I know everyone has their own opionions, and that is what makes this board so great. Not everyone has the same thing happening. Would be pretty stupid to have the same car for everyone. Why not put all schools back in uniforms, and make the military mandatory?

Heh, no worries.

Exhaust isn't ricey... Ricey is a 4.5" tip, annoying fart sound, and slanted -45degress... That is ricey. Up close, it fits the car.

I agree that the stock hubcaps are gay.

The point is this, everyone has their own opinion, and they ARE entitled to it, even if I don't necessarily agree with it or even like it. Like I said, that is what makes this board enjoyable. If someone goes out of their way to slam another persons ride tho, and think theirs is the best, well, we all have personal problems.

I think my car looks good so far, but that is my opinion, and I still like it so whatever.

--- END PREACHING SESSION ---

Anyway, the sound system is pretty damn important as a first step. If you ain't got the beats, you ain't got nuthin baby! Gotta make sure I can REALLY enjoy MY ride!

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Well, after all the criticism about my hubcaps, I can't believe what frigging happened!! SOMEONE STOLE THE BLOODY THINGS OFF MY CAR!!!!!! WTF?!?!?



Oh well, guess it was for the better. Grin, some kid probably riding around with them dragging behind his mountain bike!

Sigh, oh well, people with no self respect I guess. Actually, looking at the car without them, my full black rims with my chrome lugs doesn't actually look that bad, for now. Think I'll just buy some mags soon and get rid of the hubcap frustration.

By the way, mr 17, what have you done to your car? Hmmm?

Before you slam, you should do your own ride.
