99 Honda Civic ex (small build)


Recommended Posts

Posted

I was getting tired of my integra and the automatic tranny was starting to go, so not being able find a 5 spd conversion fast. I decided to sell or trade it. So I put an ad on good ol craigslist and got a trade offer for a 99 ex coupe with a b16 swap. So long story short I have this ej8 that I'm building on a budget but Im very happy with what I've done so far.

So the bad with the car is the rear bumper was half assed rattle caned and the interior is horrible and dirty but a car builder sees the end result not the beginning. So first hid's 6k up top added factory fogs.

Then tired of the hazy headlights got a set of smoked ek9 lights.

Next was to attack awful interior. Originally it had gray carpet but it was brown with whatever, and the panels were bluish gray Honda needs to start using black for this stuff. So I pressure washed the carpet and all the panels I could take out then painted them.

Now for the music I haven't taken any pics of the amp and sub install cuz it's the same equipment from the teg but I'll take pics when I set it up and finish the trunk. So let's start with the doors. If you hav a civic you know you can only fit baby sized speakers in the stock locations. So I went to work.
