Bought the car almost as is apart from changes noted above. 3 door EG hatches are rare in South Africa as HONDA SA only started marketing civic hatches after 1996. Car is an ongoing sloooooow project and does not get used much as I work in "CURRENT LOCATION"

don't rep that jdm sticker if ur reppin autozone rice tastic head lights,

takes away from JDM...might as well go hang with the fast and furious boys.

other then that, your wheels are the SEX, and your engine is dope.

hey dude

Our local SA sedan lights wont fit import hatches/coupes, and vice versa, or so Im reliably informed in this hrc post ?

http://www.hondaracing.za.org/forum/vie ... highlight=

There is a set Im gonna see when I get home October again, otherwise I have to import, ebay probably best bet as Honda SA will just be ridiculous with their mark up.

even if they would fit you dont really want them on your ride :) theyr;e nasty .......

nice ride , what seats are those ? recliners or fixed ?

where are you at the moment if you arent at home
Shot 4 my comments bout the car

I found a leka set of headlights last night
its a angel eye 1 piece
looks pretty decent

I rate the best turner would Jakes at JDM
that man works magic
here in cpt we have a few places Autotec and KSD

i would also let Rob Green work on any of my cars
what you think bra
