So, after my coupe was totaled, i was really not the same person.
i'm still not.
i purchased an '00 civic coupe EX Si clone d16y8 turbo.
bad idea. guy BSed everything. turbo was blown, 2nd gear synchro was gone, yada yada yada. long story.
well, a guy i work with fell in love with my civic. he just so happened to drive an '00 Naples gold LX 5MT. 224,xxx and counting. and i always wanted the car. so i offered him straight trade. that weekend, i left his house in my new sedan.
bone stock.
a week later, here she is.
Enjoy...

there were a few stages in between. but everything's solid now. alignment's done, and car is set at proper ride height.
23.75 front and 24 rear.
Still PLENTY more to come. haha.
thanks for looking!

Updated! Removed center caps, color matched sides, and color matched type R lip, along with the roof spoiler.
This is how she currently sits.

Sorry about your coupe... and on the civic you should know better than to mess with an EM1 replica

Great pick up too. it's looking really good... especially for 1 week :lawl:

oo you got a sedan now

if you got at least a full lip kit to fill it out, those wheels would look so good with that color!
