Hi there, fellow civic owners! I've been taking a look at this site from time to time but had some trouble registering awhile back for some reason. From what I have observed this is probably the best place for me to be for doing research and getting advice on my car. I own a Electron Blue 2001 Honda Civic EX Coupe Em2, which I have recently taken digital pictures of. I've had it for 4 years now with no mechanical problems, with the exception of a worn out battery which I had to replace just 2 months ago. I am not expert with auto-mechanics, nor do I have lots of money to spend on mods or fixing, and that is why I own a civic. It is spoiling me too much! I do however want to make room for more useful knowledge of my car and hopefully I can achieve that here.

What I have done with the car in my younger days began off on the wrong foot possibly. I may have went a little overboard with a wing and a bodykit, and focused too much on appearance. But now I am trying my hardest to make my car look its best with a light performance setup. I am staying away from the complicated stuff in fear that I may have trouble selling it in the future, so I am sticking to mainly handling mods. Now I use my car more practically but want to one day bring it to the track at its full potential. I am going for mainly a JDM hybrid look, and I say hybrid because I am finding it difficult to find genuine JDM parts for my car that I want, since the coupe is american.

I suppose I have to obtain 15 posts first if I can share pictures of my car, correct? I have a cardomain page which has alot of digital pictures there and mods done to my car.

Its actually eternal blue. Sorry for the typo. I really want to paint my car white pearl or yellow though to have the Spoon Sport base color, but I have no idea what it would cost.

it would cost a couple of thousand, and lower the whole value of the ride itself.
