My new EK3

O ezz i didn even notice my reat

any updates on this?

Okay, so it's been a bit quiet here for a while as I've been collecting bits and getting some spraying done.

So far I've added:
-Type-R front and rear lips
-Import sized plates
-JDM tilt bracket
-Rotas (thanks Ezza)
-had some colour coding done (needs to go back to be finished off)
-and a Tannabe backbox (Cheers Steve-o)

Pics aren't great as it's gone dark, but it hides the dirt well!










Not sure about the black bases on the mirrors, opinions? Leave them black or code them red?
Door handles need to be done also, and need to ge tthe Type-r grille sprayed too.

WOW!!!!!

what a transformation, ben pleeeeaaasse lower it!

yeah i'd do the base plates if it was me

Yeh, lowering is almost next on the list. Needs an alarm and remote locking more. The key-entry is amzingly crap

lol, order ebay coilovers right now!!! there only like £40 doooo iiiittt!!!!

saw u at lights after work other days lookin clean

like ive already said mate colour code the base plates n door handles oh n whats the exhaust sound like

Yeh, getting them coded next week. Exhaust sounds good, has a nice note and not too loud

cool mate glad u like it are u changing the grill or u painting the crome

It's been a quiet few months on the Civic front! I've been mega busy with all kinds of shit, and waiting for what seems like forever to get parts painted! Now the painting is finally done! Gave her a clean on the weekend and changed the parts over and here she is!







I took your comment Steve-o and had the chrome lip on the grille colour coded, and it looks good!
I tried tilting the spoiler, it looks a little straighter and more pointy, but how do you get the mad tilt on it?? If I put any more washers underneath it then the bolts don't go through the holes underneath and I can't get the cap-nuts on the ends...

looking clean!
often see you pass through by me (claregate)

Try this link for the tilt... ;-)

I've seen a few Civics round here recently. There's a loud blue/purple EK with a white 'H' decal in the back window, drives up my road all the time. I was talking to him in Jan when I was blocking the road for 45 mins 'cause some c*nt in a white van wouldn't give way!
Seen another one today too, purple/blue and with white wheels.. Know any of them?
