Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Hey guys, so i've decided to finally show you my car.

When I bought the car it was bone stock. I got it at 47k kms for about $10k back in May of 2010. Ever since then i've slowly been adding things to the car. Well here is the stuff I have done so far:

Morimoto Mini's Retrofits with 5000k bulbs
17 inch rims
Tokico Blues shocks with Eibach Sportline springs
Pioneer double din headunit
Pioneer subwoofer
Alpine amp
Pdm front lip (thanks to Muirsy)
RS type A side skirts
30% formula one tint
changed dome lights and license plate lights with led's

Pics:

Pictures of my retrofit can be seen here:

Well that's my car, comments, suggestions and criticism are welcome!:)

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

mmmm looks good. Nice clean sedan! I dig the retro and lip kit especially. I've got the morimoto mini retrofit as well and I love it.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

how hard is it to do a retrofit?

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

i had someone do mine so i wouldnt be able to tell you how difficult it was but im sure anyone who has done it themselves will probably tell you that its pretty simple with the morimoto mini's

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

It's easy. Especially if you get the morimito projectors

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

What wheels are you riding on? I like 'em! :)

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Oooh! I like! :tup:
Sweet headlights

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

they're Ruff Racing R310

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

thanks

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Headlight are nice....

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

and if you put an spoiler it would really loook sporty....:)

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

only kind of spoiler i wanna put is the hybrid one but im still unsure if i want it or not

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

hey guys so ill be going to the Philippines for vacay and given that i haven't been back since coming to Canada, I wanted to ask if anyone knew what kind of things would be a good purchase there for my car? I'm not really looking into anything in particular so i'm open to any suggestions

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

how long are you going to be gone? will your car be inoperable during that period?

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

im gonna be gone for 2 weeks and yea no one will be using it while im gone

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

after a wash and probably the last pic before it goes into winter mode

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Nice ride you have there.
I'd get some window visors though

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

lol trust me ive wanted them for so long i just cant pull the trigger on the weathertech ones but they're the only ones i want:hithead:

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

if you do it, do it right the first tiime.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Do it.
They'd look sexy on a blacked out car.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

yea i'll definitely get them soon and i also want to get foglights...and i know its really up to me but what do you guys think would look good? a yellow lens, a clear lens or a blacked out lens for the fogs? Note that i wont really use them for function but more just for looks.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Yellow fogs.
Something about yellow fogs on a super black car looks sexy

Wax up your rims, and get some tire shine son

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

so i just came across these pics with yellow fogs and pretty much looks the same car as mine except this is a 2 door...and i must say i really like the way it looks, yellow fogs it might be then lol

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Yeah, yellow just pops on black.
Clears just look like regular lights.

Blacked out housing = big no no

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

im looking into getting an rsx 19mm rear sway bar and theres a guy offering it to me for 20$, he says it comes with energy suspension bushings...now my question is are these bushings fine and dont i need the brackets too?

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Depends on the outer size of the bushings whether you'll need different brackets. In some cases, the almost line up perfectly on both cars.

And ES bushings are good. It's the go-to brand for performance bushings in our cars, so no worries there.

The RSX sway bar is the best bang for your buck in an EM2, so I say go for it!
I have the 21 mm and I absolutely love it!

The RSX sway bar is the best bang for your buck in a 7th gen, so I say go for it!

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Sounds like a good deal, I'd snag it.

You should be able to use your stock brackets.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Car looks great man.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

thanks

As for the sway bar i messaged the guy to meet up so now im just waiting for his answer...ill let you guys know what happens

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Those wheels look real good. I like the black w/ chrome lip

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

thanks... i kinda want to get new rims thats all black but since my headlights have some chrome i gotta have some shades of chrome throughout the rest of the car lol

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Love this front end. Looks good to me... even with the headlights.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

thanks man...im gonna add fogs soon...but i took off the lip for now cuz of winter

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

so i ended up picking up the rsx rear sway bar for $20

Attachment 94074

as for the installation, is it just taking off the one i have now and just putting this one on? or do i have to use different size bolts?

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Yep.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

That is a good price.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

is that a yea to just plug and play or to the different size bolts? lol sorry for being annoying, i just dont wanna do something wrong

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

yea the guy bought a type r rear sway bar for his rsx and i guess he just wanted to get rid of his oem one real quick so i hopped on his deal

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Direct plug and play

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Jack it up and you'll see!
It's a direct fit, 10 minute install if you know what you're doing :rofl:

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

hey guys so no update on the sway bar yet cuz the weather has been awful for me to put it on but i will post pics and let you know how it turns out when i finally get that thing on.

but i have a question, for the rsx seats, are the bolts the same for an rsx 02-04 and the rsx 05-06?

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

nice to see another Black sedan in Toronto...just moved mine up from Nova Scotia

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

nice...any pics of yours?

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

Hubba hubba! :love:

Yet another reason I hate having a beige interior.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

^
Lol, I plan on getting rsx tan seats for mine.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

RSX seats are da bomb! lol Especially cause the Canadian ones are heated (if you drive the car in the cold, that is). I love mine, even though my parent's think I'm retarded for having different seats front and rear

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

:wavey:

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan
 

i think it looks a little weird having leather in the front and cloth in the back...at least yours is a coupe and you can kinda hide it, where mine is a sedan which is a little more visible. thats why im currently looking for some rear 1.7 EL seats
