Civic Project-Phase 1 complete!

Picked up the ground effects pieces from Maaco today. The paint job was pretty good! Not excellent, but worth the money I spent.

It took me a couple hours to clean and wax the pieces, then install em. The sideskirts were pretty easy. The front lip took some more creativity to fit...I used my parents gas range stove and a flathead screwdriver to melt and shape the plastic ends a little...fits better now, although still not perfect. But I guess that's what I should expect from buying a CTR lip copy made in Taiwan.

Anyways, I'm very satisfied with the results! Makes my car look sporty...I'm falling in love with my Civic all over again. It gives the illusion of being faster! heheh...if only it were.

With the baby on the way, this pretty much ends any work I'm gonna do on my car in the near future. Hopefully in a couple years, I'll be able to work on the suspension and wheels.

I'll post up pics as soon as I get home!
