Picked this up last week.

Black Civic SiR Ek4, 67,000 miles standard as they come

It's not as clean as my Ej9 which was pretty damn clean but it will be and has no rust which I'm most happy about.

168bhp ish from factory imported in 2008, had a full respray last year and I have to say I'm really enjoying it so far! got big plans...

Only put on my Jordan wheels so far, future thinking bronze TE37's, SPOON Spoiler, front lip, lower, tint etc...

if you dont mind me asking how much did you pay for this? im looking for something very similar.
 
Car looks mint m8 , will look even better once its lowered and got a lip fitted
 
nice choice in the jordan wheels mate :nice: good luck with the build looks nice solid project to work on :)
 
UPDATE

Went a bit wild this week :)

Went to the Painter who said ''you dont need a respray just cut the paint back''

So he sold me this for 50 buck

Loads of cleaning, put the car in garage and Buffed till Matt Black

Used Cut & Compound for hours! Dad helped out and weve done the bonnet and rear bootlid

To say I'm happy is an understatement its like brand new paint :)

Front end all colour sanded and applied scratch remover also works a treat, doors done and just waiting for weather to finish the rear quarters
