I put together a list of what I needed:

Front Lip
Brakes/Rotors
Front Headlights
GSR or SIR Seats
Spark Plugs

Stereo
Rims

MALICE85

iTrader: (23)

Picked up these rims


Took the Front End off, sourced out some JDM Black Housing Headlights, and ordered some OEM Bumper Clips

The rims didnt last long, I found some EM2 SI rims, and decided I would go with these. Replaced front end, lined it up as best I could, new front Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotors, Low Dust Ceramic Pads, OEM Spark Plugs and Filter, SIR Front Seats, Climate Control Unit, Mugen REP Front Lip (Not installed). I also had some blue anodized lugs lying around and decided to use them.

That thing looks great! Good find on that civic, in your typical fasion I'd imagine you got that thing for a steal

How's she run? I'm a big fan of the wheel setup and lug combo.

MALICE85

iTrader: (23)

I cannot recall the steal of a deal at the moment lol...yeah i saw the em2s and i thought they would look great, and the lugs matched up with the electron blue perfectly. thanks man!

I always loved those EM2 rims. They look very clean for someone going for a stock look on a Honda.

The paint on the civic shines real nice too!

This weekend's supposed to be nice and warm again so should make for a great work day!

cyphon21

So, now with my uncles '68 benz gone, i can finally bring my shell in the garage to start some bodywork and plan out my engine bay...

So just a refresher; this is MY SHELL. lol..

MALICE85

iTrader: (23)

On friday we took off the front end, and I stored those panels. I also thought it would be a good idea to take off the doors, so in the garage it is easy to work around the car.

MALICE85

iTrader: (23)

Finally rolled into the garage!!!




Today I didnt waste anytime, I cleaned out the bay, and my buddy took out the front dash.

MALICE85

iTrader: (23)

We took out heater core and blower, lost some weight in the dash, and also pulled most of the wiring harness out of engine bay..this Tuesday I will be degreasing the bay, and hopefully sanding it down Wednesday and Sunday..With working 6 days a week, Sundays is the only day really I have to work on the Teg...If anyone wants to help out, have some fun, and learn as we go they are most welcome to come by!
