My Civic's Timeline [56k Warning]

well, since nobody posted here before, i'll start it off

October 2007, picked up the car all dirty, washed it all up. discovered it was covered in dents and stone chips.
came with a sh**ty cd player, but it did the job for the time being.







first mod that came was a new cd/mp3 player (Sony Xplod CDX-GT510), nothing major, but did enjoy the mp3/wma capability.



winter came and my car transformed into this:



as winter went by, had the following replaced:

- new control arms
- new struts (stock)
- new ball joints
- new links

around march switched to my summer rims (on my bday, wanted to roll in style with friends, lol)





finally in april some modding began, started with H&R lowering springs and INJEN Short Ram Intake. followed very shortly with the black out housing for the headlights mod.





Then found a good deal on a Type-R rear lip, which got me started on the my lip kit, picked up a few days later Type-R skirts and the Altezza Grill





about a few weeks later picked up a new front bumper along with a Type-B front lip



finally my car went to the body shop to get all dents fixed, trunk shaved, mould the front lip to the front bumper, and some more body work





in between i got my hands on an OEM spoiler, dropped it off at the body shop, got that painted and installed as well, and today i picked up the car, finally after 2 weeks of waiting for it.







i hope you like it so far.

Looks very nice! The bodywork looks mint now. What engine is in that?
