#289215 I know this is weird but your carpet looks really mint! as well as the whole car.

#289219 Nice to see another UK white eg on here.

Looks like a nice base youve got there. I would dith those lights and find a cheap set from the scrappies, also glad you have got rid of the wheels they were mahooosive!

If your looking for coilovers and you want a really good set with reliability and back up incase anything goes wrong go for Meister R's or HSD's.

If you want some inspiration or ideas check my thread:
http://civic-eg.com/viewtopic.php?t=5802

I started with a completely standard lsi shame i didnt get pics when i bought it.

Anyways good luck with the build :thumb:

#289284 Sorry for the late welcome but hope you enjoy your stay here. Glad to hear your ride of those wheels sorry but they were way massive.

On the coil over front D2's always nice and as kel said HSD's are real good I have a set on our track supra for a while and were sweet.

We have a dedicated UK section on the forum so check that out also we're planning a Japfest stand this year so if you'd like to come post up in the uk section and let Andyc know, he's the UK mod for the site.

Ive also got a set of standard uk rear hatch lights at my unit so if you want them will do the lot for £30 plus postage.
