you have created one hell of a civic.
Good job i like it very mucho.

[Davidov]

Damn dude, that is the most original looking Civic I have EVER seen.
Looks really nice.

[rpr]

Wow. That's a lot of work. I think I like it. Is the front bumper cover joined to the fender?

[gtpilot]

I agree - very nice...I can't wait to see it painted! Is the blue in the photoshop picture an indication of your color of choice for the car?

jeez....man its gonna look great with a fresh coat of paint. i can see you went through extensive detail/work on your civic........it sure is gonna pay off soon.

Well , I think it looks good but the front fenders need more flare to match the rear ones
Looks like alot of good work

first of all thanks for all the great comments.. made me smile that all my hard work paid off. the pictures are all a little scunched but it sill makes the point

rpr- yes sadly its actually urathane held on the fender by fiber glass mat they sont really stick to each other to good. But as soon as i bottom out on somthing hard enough its almost gareunted to crack.

gtpilot- yup thats the color.. super sonic blue

C_piddy-theres one or 2 in the gallery of the back but i was working on it so i didnt empthisize on it. Also i got some dual side drafts waiting to go in . winter progect.

[timothymckay]

A big front mount intercooler would fill that gap up nicely!!!

[lofreq]

thats some scary bodywork going on there! wow - a ton of effort - top marks! especially the beemer lights i dunno about how youve flared the rears tho, that style of flare has always looked visually odd (cus the wheel ends up so far IN instead of being nice and flush to the outside edge...)

i see youve extended the bodyline right down.. but the car seems at stock height - are you gonna drop it further? or fill in the space with some mad 20" things hehe - cus if u drop it any kind of distance your kit is just gonna shatter on the tarmac - i hope that doesnt happen@#$ i was already spitting tacks when i cracked my removable lower lip on a driveway dip...

but i guess if its a show car, you dont have to worry bout that ive never understood how repairs/maintenance is done on showcars that have the bumpers moulded onto the bodies...??

will love to see it painted - good stuff bring on the dohc vtec turbo conversion!

[RexKrazy]

looks somewhat BMWish...i like.
damn that header panel. get a 1 piece CF hood/header panel. i think it just disturbs all that work you've done.

very nice though. if you find the wheels with the correct offset to meet the edge of the fenders, it will solve the "odd" looking problem.

keep it up!
