Some Overdue Pics of my ride...
A while back (October 9th to be exact) I had a chance to bring my new FD to my old High School for the annual auto show where lots of antiques (And some "Show" car civics etc) and sports cars show up. It was a beautiful, clear day and my car was the cleanest since I got it. I used the Zaino blue car wash soap and it seemed to make the biggest difference.
2 Friends took pictures, one doesn't know jack about photography I guess so I didn't even keep his shots, and these 2 are the one's my other friend took amongst the other cars. The barn shot is my car outside of a location where we pulled out a blown motor and dropped in a reman on my friends FC.
*After seeing so many mod'd crazy FD's, nothing makes my mouth water quite like this perfect side shot of a stock-ish FD. Maybe lowered on CCW's will top it off someday, and if I make my car black :P*

@ $175 per mudguard, it was going to be a tough price to swallow for my Ideal 3rd gen "Body kit"

Car looks great, I still contend that stock (or 99 stock) is the only way to go with these cars, you just can't improve on the looks anymore.
Be sure to post some pics when you get those CCW's, i've got a teaser pic of my car "borrowing" a set from a friend (before the eibach springs..looks like a 4x4). After I saw his wheels on my car, I decided that those were definately what I wanted.

It wasn't Hot Import Nights, and even at those events, as "Show" as a kitted, $50k invested interior tegra/civic is...there isn't much there that I'd like to see.....except perhaps NEVER again. None are to my taste...ever. Perhaps I think cars are for driving? Leave the TV's and music (to some extent) for places like...a House.
jayk: Umm thanks. I'm glad I didn't ruin it...either.
Section8: Did you post that a while ago? I have that pic saved! The only thing I have against (or reasons to get a different rim) the CCW's is that I like a 5-spoke design with a big lip...decisions decisions! Thanks for the pic, very juicy, we think alike.

How's that? :P
I can't get an intake just yet because of the 3-mod rule, I don't spike/creep/leak boost the way the car is now and I plan on getting an ECU (Pettit) before I go any further (and a Profec)
