So I've kinda been a member here for a long time, but I've never really posted. Unfortunately, this car is almost at the point that I want it, so you won't see much build progress, but I have some plans for it in the future.

How it sits now:

And how it sat the day I bought it:

Now, it's not really much of a "build", because I really haven't built anything. It's most just a drop and wheels, but the car has gone through a lot of small style changes and such, which you'll notice in these upcoming "progress" photos.

In chronological order:

(I bought it with these, I swear! :rotflmao:)

(Begin my "JDM" phase, haha. Stickers and roof racks everywhere)

(The day I got the suspension on!)

(New shoes! photo taken literally 5 minutes after I had some really ****ty tires put on until I bought some. all 4 mismatched, already bad camber wear :rotflmao:)

(roof rack gone, about time!)

(Civic fogs installed, hood shield on)

(tried plastidipping the wheels white. it turned out okay, but overall wasn't happy with the white on my color car. they didn't stay white for long)

And now we're to where it sits now!

I don't have very many plans left for this car. I wanted to keep it a super clean daily, and I like to think I've done a good job at that. Really all I have left is to buy new wheels, do a little body and fender work (going WIDE), retrofit, and that's pretty much it. I'm happy with how it has turned out, and I really can't complain.

Comments, suggestions, criticism, all welcome!
Thanks.

Squeaky clean, looks good. I like that you’re going for all clear headlights instead of blackhoused, that will look sweet especially as retros. Leaving the tails as is?

Haven't decided yet, I like the clear/red tails, but with them being eBay, I'm worried about fitment/quality.

Looks really good. Could stand to lose one of the visors because there's a lot. Any plans to get a front lip? Seeing your civic fogs makes me want to do that on mine. Nice to see another clean sedan. Welcome to 6ga. :ehcapt:

Haha nice. Once I get my function and forms I'm going to have be even more careful. Living in Washington with a lowered car is an extreme sport. Road construction is always going on, gravel roads, driveways with a 90 degree angle. The underside of my car is scraped worse than the cake batter bowl of a fat child.
