also.. the Si on the left is the car i took on trade for my 93 base back in august.. i sold the car a month later for 13k :smirk: i got it with some other ugly *** wheels, and the paint all fucked up and no front lip... did a few inexpesive alterations and made a killing on it seeing as how the car was a 99 and it has 122k miles! the Si on the right is my cousin's car, also a member of my crew

I like how that billet grille wraps arond the lights.. Where did you have it made at?(the grille) My brother want to do a grille like that on his lowrider truck instead of using the traditional phantom grilles..which keep the side markers..

How do you get into that Civic?



I should snag some pics of my friends daily driven SI. It has all of the usual exterior stuff, but the real nice part is the custom leather interior that he stitched himself...it really sets it apart.

the billet grille is a custom one off peice that a company here in houston called "bullet customs" sent off to get made for us. the doors are also custom one off work, that my brother some friends and myself did. it took us a year to complete the doors/hood/trunk. they are all electronically controlled by actuators... to open and close. the doors first come out enough to clear the fender, then they swing up, and do the same to close. we got most of our parts from a place that sells/builds vans and trucks for handycap people, like the kind that need to carry wheelchairs with them in the vans or trucks. here is a picture i took at Import Revolution here in houston last year with the old wheels...







and here is one of the car in the Import Tuner booth at this past november's Autorama...

A year?!? Jebus. Paid off though, it looks good.



's a nice thing about civics. The car and parts are so cheap to buy, so if you want something for pure show, there ya are.
