I am also doing spoon mirrors for it..

if you can modify the headlights so they look like the older model, that would be cool.

Do you mean make them look like an EG Civic 92-95 or make them look like the 96-98 EK Civic ? Because the headlight stiles chainged in 99-00 to a more square corner and the hood and fenders also chainged and then the 2001 is totaly chainged...

In some pics, the wing doesn't look that big, but in others, for some reason, it looks kind of big. Anyways, great work on the wing.

Looks great. I like the motor. Where did you get the photo etch from? It was a pain trying to scrape the paint off the chrome and only leave the raised letters, I'd like a PE set too! And though the Spoon built motor has a red valve cover, the signature valve cover color that Spoon uses is yellow... not that it really matters because I've seen it both ways.

I had the photo etch made for me at my lhs cost me bouy 40 bucks but I get 50 DOHC VTEC emblems and 50 Honda emblems.. And every spoon motr we have bought from king motorsports at our shop has had a red type r valve cover.... and we have gotten about 9 of them in the last year .. from b16 to b18...
