why did you put the nitrous bottle on the front floor board?

Why not? :confused:

Why not? :confused: thats a very very very bad place for a nitrous bottle, besides you'd want it in the back for better weight distribution and passenger leg room.

wieght distribution, but its front wheel drive so more weight in the front the better for traction reasons..

and for the passenger leg room..... FUCK THe passengers

So you can scare the shit out of them while you blow past them.

thats no fun, id stil have the bottl in the back anyways, kinda just goes in the back ya know, like pull the spare tire and mount the bottle in the tires place, lil secret. :grinyes:

coll but i dont like the Tach and the nitous stikers on the bottle!!
Cool car :lol2: :lol2:

Good lookin' ride! I'm working on the same model right now.

I like your custom additions. I have a question. Did you try to use the carbon fiber decal for the hood? I painted my hood black (cause I don't have much luck with large decals) but it didn't quite look right. So I went ahead and tried to apply the decal. It actually looks really good like carbon fiber, but it wrinkled up really bad around the hood's curves. I got most of it to be flat, but I'm having problems around where the headlights go. Anyway, if you have some suggestions, can you pass them along?

I had the same problem, so i scracthed the cf, and the hood weill lbe painted either yellow, or a semiflat black to simulate CF... i am bad with decals also. mine did the same thing urs did...


meh :(

forgot.. please chek out my site for many new pics

Nice job man, i like the tach, looks pretty neat with no hood, but thats just me, the homy adds the right touch, looks pretty cool

Im a noob here and i was looking up pics on yahoo of honda civic hatchbacks for the same model i am doing and i saw yours and it is pretty cool. I was just wondering where did u get the hommie sitting in the seat from?
