Rice Civic

Haven't seen a build like this in a long long time.

The kit is the Hasegawa Honda Civic VTi/ETi. I decided it would be fun to make a ricer out of it. The color is Tamiya Coral Blue with Krylon Ultra-Flat for the hood and front quarter panels.

The rims are going to be Racing Hart CP-035. Spoiler and muffler courtesy of Fujimi tuner accessories kit. There are a few other "tuner" add ons like the "Momo" steering wheel and the "M3" side mirrors. The spoiler WILL be backwards and on the car.

Possibly mesh behind the front bumper after it's been painted silver. And altezzas if the clear parts will let me do so.

Re: Rice Civic

- cheapo-brand tires with white lettering...and wanna-have-tire-brand-stickers on the windows

- definitely needs duct-tape to keep the body-parts from falling off

- a huge tach...not connected, though

- fake self-adhesive hood-pins

- or go full tilt and install a waterfall and massage-seats (WCC-style...)

- and a self-adhesive "race" fuel-filler-door

....I'm really looking forward to seeing this one finished

Re: Rice Civic

Don't Forget The "NOS" Or "FnF" Seatcovers & Floormats From W-Mart(lol)
And Nothing Says Ricer Like The (V-tec,Boost,NOS) Inside Decals
Or Better Yet,A Three Gauge A Piler Pod With No Gauges In It

Re: Rice Civic

funny how everyone calls it a "huge fart can" when it's the same size as the fart cans seen on Supras, Skylines, rx-7's etc.

looks like a fun project however

Well you see Jaymes, cars with Turbos actually benefit from a larger exhaust. They pull in more air, there for they need to push out more air. Now naturally aspirated Hondas with no engine mods actually loose horse power when big exhaust are installed becuase there isnt enough back pressure need for the engine to perform adequitely. Thats why there a joke. There put on just to make make the engine sound different, worse in my opinion.

Re: Rice Civic

Mismatched "mini" foglights hanging from the front bumper by zipties...
