NEEW PICS ALL WASHED AND SPRAY DETAILED

some one said somewhere else that the pinstripe looked pink in the pics. this is to show it up close

ELMark · May 7, 2010

Niiiiice. I've had my eye one one for a while but they're just so damn expensive up north.

Pete · May 7, 2010

awesome.. what plans do you have for it? and you have an 8th gen coupe? you love your civics

but why the red pin stripe?

plans as of right now are Hfp lips all around. and possibly ep3 hfp wheels. but i kind of just want to leave it stock for a while. I'm going to try hard to resist modding. :ugh: but yea. i took a break from honda after my 7th gen. and I'm glad I'm back.. im in love with this car :ricer: the pin stripe is my only gripe. its kind of growing on me. in person its not bad. its actually white and red. and goes along with the red on the car. but im debating removing it.

as for the fg thats my dads, i couldnt resist a side by side shot

Greeenie · May 7, 2010

no plans, no mods, just stock, it needs nothing

Pete · May 7, 2010

very true. very fun car. i got to get used to 6th gear.

Greeenie · May 7, 2010

kinda strange to get into at first, it becomes natural

Pete · May 8, 2010

i went to 4th a few times, when going into 6th :/ good thing i wasn't ripping it.

speedfoos · May 8, 2010

Good score Pete!

Greeenie · May 8, 2010

u need a GIANT honda logo on the windsheild like mine

RHCP0801 · May 8, 2010

welcome to the si club :dance: lol and i think this is the only pinstripe i dont mind that much, i would still take it off though but it doesnt look that bad

congrats and cant wait to see it in person, just dont turn it into a rice bucket like adam

Xeigh · May 8, 2010

The new ones are so nice, I'm not really for pinstripes but i'm kinda diggin that one. They are so nice stock even. I agree with the full hfp lip kit, they look sick for the new civics.

Greeenie · May 8, 2010

O eat my ass Adam, at least i can hear over my exhaust

RHCP0801 · May 8, 2010

hahahah yea yea i like being deaf from my exhaust

speedfoos · May 8, 2010

RHCP0801 · May 8, 2010

nice, did you sell the alti?

RHCP0801 said:
looks even better detailed, i say the hfp kit with maybe some hfp suspension and it will look perfect

thanks adam, i agree. i want your rims too but they can wait. first think ill probably do is get rid of the chrome trim

EEAE6000 · May 9, 2010

Looks good Pete. Ive always love the 4dr SIs

Pete · May 9, 2010

woot thanks!

RHCP0801 said:
yea idk, for some reason i dont think it looks that bad actually with the chrome trim...but its an easy change. When you do get the rims order them from www.collegehillshonda.com, i got mine from there and the parts department is very good and helpful

yea i just liked the paint matched so much better. im actually ordering the piece from that site. i had it bookmarked but on my old computer i just spent like 30min looking for it again. and there you go posting it lol..
