Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan You guys are so lucky to have EL parts around. Enigmatic, if you have an ES, I'd try and look for a EL trunk, it'd look badass on an ES. |

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan Direct bolt on, as far as I know. Tail lights come with the trunk. http://images.canadianlisted.com/nla...ey_8005606.jpg http://www.carid.com/images/spoilers/SPL/SPL-30773.jpg Obvi the 04/05 reverse looks way better |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan i like the blue one with the reverse lights round... what year is that one from? |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan According to the sale listing, it's from an 04. I wonder if you could put the OEM ES1/2 flat spoiler on an EL bumper. It would totally be unique and awesome looking. http://www.hondapartsnow.com/accesso...id-spoiler.jpg http://www.coches.com/fotos_historic...2001-03_r4.jpg |

Car looks GREAT! how do you like the ride comfort, I just bought 17" rims, probably going to drop it exactly like yours this summer if I find a good deal on the Tokico blues. |

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan nice! i just installed some el 1.7 rears, now I need to find some fronts...might go with the RSX...did you drill for the back bolts or just bolt in 3? |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan Yeah, but why would you want the EL lights? :P Unique, yeah... but the Civic's trunk looks better IMO. Mixing around the spoilers isn't a bad idea though. I'm sure you could get something interesting out of that. |

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan I just don't see the appeal of an EL rear-end. Get yourself a JDM sedan rear end and then we're talkin' :roflmao: EDIT: oops, I was thinking of the JDM 8th gen. The 7th gen is virtually identical, lol |

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan Don't even need to do a photoshop to prove that white wheels on a black car are drop-dead gorgeous :cool: What rims do you have in mind? Painting the same ones? |

yea im just planning to paint ones i have now but i just want to see how it would look first lol And i guarantee it will look great. My photoshop skills are not good enough to change black to white. The only way I can do that is to find an image of your wheel type that is already white or a light color close to it. |

Just something you don't see often. |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan It would totally be cool and unique, no problem with that. Just not a big enough cosmetic difference to justify the cost of a new trunk shipped from Canada, lol. It would look better if the lights were a bit thinner. It reminds me too much of an Accord in the rear. |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan 1 Attachment(s) small update: picked up a couple things, weather tech visors and fog lights Attachment 93745 i will finally get my rsx sway bar installed when these fogs get installed soon |

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan No i never got around to it sorry man |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan Pretty sure it wouldnt be too hard, perhaps splicing into the wiring, and hooking it up to an ebay foglight switch. |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan If you got those fogs of ebay, you're gonna have a hard time, trust me. I paid my experienced body shop / mechanic neighbor to install mine and he was baffled by how the ebay kit was wired. Eventually he figured it out, giving them a separate line and fuse from the headlights. The hardest part though, is tearing apart your car just so you can run a little switch into your dash. I took the easy route and installed my own switch in a removable panel under the steering column. |

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan Hmmm, interesting. I'll buy a set to play with. |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan keep in mind, I'm a complete idiot when it comes to electrical, so I may be making it sound worse than it really is, haha |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan 7 Attachment(s) Update: fogs in, weathertech visors on, rims back on(with new honda center caps), perforated leather for my armrest to match with rsx seats, lip back on with a home depot lip (unsure if i wanna keep the home depot lip), but still no sway bar in:hithead: Attachment 93525 Attachment 93526 Attachment 93527 Attachment 93528 Attachment 93529 Attachment 93530 Attachment 93531 |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan 1 Attachment(s) washed the car...i hate washing the car cuz it just makes all the little dents and scratches more visible lol Attachment 93475 this will prob last pic for at least a month since i will be going on vacay to the philippines...might pick up a few things ill keep you guys updated, ill also try to get pics while im there to see how their civic scene is |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan 5 Attachment(s) hey guys whats up, its been a while but i came back from vacay a couple weeks ago but i didnt get any pics of the civics over there cuz i was lazy about it lol anyways i went to a race and drag event today known as Canadian Sports Compact Series (CSCS) and got a few pics of the car taken...ignore the dead bugs on the bumper lol Attachment 93128 Attachment 93129 Attachment 93130 Attachment 93131 Attachment 93132 i also picked up a little something, ill post pics when i put it on |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan Looks good kiddo! I'm likin' that white Scion in the background. Or at least I think that's what it is... :P |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan cool concept on the arm rest. Never considered that to match the rsx seats. That lip is actually real sharp. I kind of like it more on this model than my 08. |

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan 4 Attachment(s) Update: i finally got to install the rsx sway bar, picked up a broadway mirror, and an 01-03 rear lip (i want the 04-05 one but i cant find any so for the meantime ill stick with this one) Attachment 93079 Attachment 93080 Attachment 93081 Attachment 93082 |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan Love the RSX sway bars. Such a great improvement! And that rear lip ain't so hot... Get an 04-05 or just leave that thing off, lol :D |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan That's the HFP rear lip. I like it, the only thing with it, is that it looks a LOT better in TW, and center section unpainted. |

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan It just looks proper unpainted. But I dont think it really matters when you have black car... It only really makes a difference if your car is a different color. http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/4...0824183603.jpg |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan Paint that middle section white.. man.. that would look great. |
Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan The 01-03 rear lip fits a 04-05? |
