My Ej9 !

[kyle93]

Sup !,

well thought i'd try and do a little write up on my car as i do some modding to it . don't expect alot of it tho ! haha, becasue i'm trying to save up for either a 1.6 civic or just a nice new engine( suggestion please). anyway only got the one pic just now but will get more tomorrow

Plans:

New alloys, Em1's or fan blades, sprayed either black with red honda badge or gunmetal grey with red badge ? (thoughts ?)
Lowered 60mm at front, 40-50mm at the back ?
new front lip
tilt spoiler and carbon wrap it
Backbox
tidy up interior some how haha!
Remove dent on bootlid will get the pic up of this embarrassing dent haha !
spray or replace grill with ek9 rep
induction kit

Bonnet isn't the best either with a little dent and faded paint some places thoughts on getting it dent removed and sprayed gloss black or just get a black civic bonnet ?

I know its not alot of big mods but its only my first car so chill !
Only paid £900 for it and it done 43000 miles when i bought it, not alot of service history but my mate work at honda so he's looking after it for me haha

as i said, not alot of big mods but trying to save up for a 1.6 civic ? what's the good civics in that size of engine ? ek4's? or new engine .

bought some Jamex lowerings (40mm) and a powerflow backbox ! ..they are getting fitted this weekend ! yayay !

 

[kyle93]

Got My Lowering Springs fitted today !
Powerflow backbox is going on this weekend ....any thoughts on a race tube to get ?, also would it be ok to lower the car another 20mm at the front ?...anyway heres the pic !

Nice find man, I'd leave the ride height now, because if you get a nice set oalloys at any point you'd probably just want it on 40mm otherwise it'll be pain.

Other than that, lovely car man.

Question: went for a country drive today and i've not long came back and noticed like 4 or 5 dents on my drivers side door must of been stones and that flying up haha ....any ideas on how to get them removed ?

 

[b2theenneh]

Ahaha, ludicrous spoiler tilt.

Need to get some clear side indicators I reckon.

Yeah I have a couple in my EJ9 too I dunno, maybe a dent man can do them for you.

[kyle93]

got these mirrors for my civic last week but one of the mount plates broke
can anyone link me the right plates to get for them please ?

 

[kyle93]

bump: anyone want to help me out with the mirrors and tips for the rust ?

Youl get away with sanding and painting the front wing. The door looks like it will need filled andpainted the rear arch is the same as mine if you whip off the rear plastics youl probably see it has bubbled right through. I'd just take it to a body shop cos it might need cut out

Ok thanks For the help mate !.... I've asked some body shops about the rear arch and they said they can't do it because they cannot garentuee it won't come back ... Will try and fix the other problems
