    Well I've been a member of this forum for a while now, and I just dropped my car this week so I decided to post some pics of it.

    Theres not much going on under the hood.

    NGK plugs
    NGK 9mm wires
    cold air intake (from ebay) for now
    Ground kit

    Si grill (replica)
    Si front lip (replica)
    Fog lights

    I have it riding on Dropzone shocks/struts and springs
    2.5" drop in front 2.25" in the back.
    Omni camber kit front and back.

    and now some pics

    After the lip

    From the back
    ai169.photobucket.com_albums_u233_dcinaustin_civic004.jpg
    Put some fogs on it
    ai169.photobucket.com_albums_u233_dcinaustin_113007_1656.jpg
    D16Y8 (Auto:( )
    ai169.photobucket.com_albums_u233_dcinaustin_P1010320.jpg
    Before the drop
    ai169.photobucket.com_albums_u233_dcinaustin_civic002.jpg
    After the drop (look'n dirty on the steelies)
    ai169.photobucket.com_albums_u233_dcinaustin_25civic.jpg
    From the side (still dirty)
    ai169.photobucket.com_albums_u233_dcinaustin_P1010343.jpg

    I know my car has alot of cheap'O stuff on it for now but I do plan on some upgrades in the future.
    First I need to get some dam wheels!!!

    Feel free to let me know what you think.

    I think I might put my hub caps back on till my incometax return gets here, my steelies aren't in very good shape, I cleaned the crap out of them but their still ugly as hell...hmmm.

    The drop looks good. I wouldnt worry about the cheap parts for now, cause u gotta start somewhere, i have my fair share of ebay parts too. I agree though, put those hubcaps back on till u get some wheels.

    i think the steelies look fine but if you think it would look better with the HC's then gok for it man and don't even worry about the whole cheap-o parts thing i built my whole car off of ebay. personal preference, nobody really cares about what your car looks, sounds, or performs like as long as you love it we love it. keep up the good work.

    Thanks! I got strut bars coming in today, I'll get em installed and take some pics ASAP.

    My car is finally taking shape, I only hope I can find a stopping point that I'm happy with and it dosen't become a money pit, because as I'm sure most of you would agree with me when I say that this is "kind of" addictive and by "kind of" I really mean "VERY"
