Friend's Civic Makeover

[Jay eS Iye]

One of my buddies from San Antonio has been talking about giving his Civic a makeover for sometime now (like a couple years) but finally got it all done a couple weeks ago. I know its not a 4th Gen, but nice none the less. The whole project minus wheels was about 3900 -- Kit 1500; Hood 500; Shaving, Molding skirts, paint, installing door acuators 1900

Before:

Eh...not my style but a good job nonetheless. I liked it originally minus the altezza tailights.

LOOKS GOOD...BUT I WOULD HAVE GONE WITH A CF TURBO HOOD WITH A DIFFERENT NOT SO COMMON STYLE OF altezza tailights

Looks really good, and I have always liked the first gen altezza lights.

[GScivic7]

he's replacing the altezza's with red/clears

The paint job looks pretty nice. Is that the electron blue?

The front end looks like you could grate cheese on it. Paint and wheels look nice. And yes he needs to smash those Altezzas off.

good choice if I say so myself

GScivic7, do you know him? b/c i don't think he has any plans of changing the lights, tho i too would like the idea. he was thinking about modding different lights in, like RSX or something. And yes, the paint is Arctic Blue Pearl, i like the color. the front end is somewhat extreme but not as bad as many others i have seen.

[GScivic7]

no, he posted the pics on SHO i think and ppl were asking him the same questions and i'm just repeating what he wrote

[Jay eS Iye]

oh ok, my bad... yeah actually he already changed them
