no feeling towards the star. I bought it like that. This guys painted all that stuff under the hood. (RICER) tried to make his car light and take everything out, but still had money to put a spoiler. Should I upload vids for the sound so u guys can see what it sounds like?

but anyway, good luck restoring it

I bought the car because Civics in my area are really hard to find for cheap and Im 17 with a minimum wage job. I don't feel like waiting 5 months saving up. Not like in cali where i can get a 2000 Si for $2000. Not only that I enjoy having a new hobbie and wanna build this car up.

Was kind of bored so took my wing off and took some new pics. I took the star out about 3 weeks ago and gave the car a nice wash till the rain came and screwed it up. Let me know what you guys think.







Pic with wing on before i took it off


gotta get that painted asap




new gauge coming soon

why did you remove the wing?

illmatic
06-11-2006, 07:09 PM
1 part of reason why was because it was too big and I couldnt see good in my rear view. And it was kinda ricey. Gonna keep it wingless until i deacide otherwiese.

you should sell it.... its an oem wing right?... i believe most people call it the "SI" wing... my fiances lil sisters coupe has one and damn i hate not being able to see.... its better wingless... err the lower wing at most...

illmatic
06-12-2006, 01:34 PM
yea i like it better this way. I am selling it actually. Not sure if its the "SI" wing your talking about, but then again idk.

Thanks for the comment, well sort of Im in central florida Orlando. I finally did my rims a different color and they actually look nice lol. Still alot of work to be done with the car but I finally made up my mind and im not keeping it. I have to fix a couple problems it has (gas leak, E-brake, and stock exhasut) Im gonna get a 2000 SI hopefully in a month or 2.
