nice clean look

1SicCiv 14-Jul-2003 07:21 PM

Very Clean ...well done on the simple look...more and more people seem to be drifting away from the overkill look (altezza's, crazy lighting, overdone skirts...etc)...anyways well done with your car...

Nova_Dust 14-Jul-2003 07:23 PM

Thanks guys, I used to have this huge ass Akimoto Racing banner on the front LOL. It was white and I thought it looked nice. Well that time is over, and I am over that stuff now.

Even if I mod my car later on, I probably won't put any stickers on either. Like a huge ass list down your door LOL

imported_loudsubz 14-Jul-2003 07:29 PM

Very Very clean, no drop it and get some deep dish's :D

or swap in an h22 and beef up the suspension but keep it at stock ride height... it'd be the ultimate sleeper

No..., the ultimate sleeper would be a 4dr civic with an H22.:p

punkindrublic 14-Jul-2003 08:24 PM

TRUST Me when you own the streets you wont need girls:D

Nova_Dust 14-Jul-2003 08:58 PM

Heh, well dampers will be my next project on the list. Hopefully, by the end of the summer.

imported_BoOsTd 14-Jul-2003 09:16 PM

is that a buddy club front? or WW tuner type 1... if thats a buddy club (glass) im impressed with the fitment, mind you the pic could be helping it...how is the fit, any gaps, under the lights and such?

SpikeyLee 14-Jul-2003 09:23 PM

Nice looking ride, Nova!!
Stock look gets a :thumbup: in my books!

Are those blue/white bulbs that you have in your front turn signals?

Biggy 14-Jul-2003 09:57 PM

damn nice ride man, very clean

imported_QRTR 14-Jul-2003 10:01 PM

Wow! nice ride buddy...

Totally wicked front end bro...

What's the next project?

Nova_Dust 14-Jul-2003 10:46 PM

Yes it is a Buddy Club. The fitment on the driver side is better then the passenger side. There is a little gap (actually, rather large for me) under the light on the passenger side and it flares out a little bit then the driver side. But oh well, it ain't the real deal so I can't complain much. If I were as committed before as I am now, I could have spent the money on a real one. But if I win the lottery, ya I am getting a new one. Or else buying a real Buddy Club bumper will almost be the last thing on my list.

I was gonna keep the OEM bumper but I cracked it so bad that it couldn't be repaired. Or else I would have gotten a CF lip for it.

And those are white turn signals, and blueish light bulb, not so blue, only a tiny tiny bit.

Coming up: install the new B&M race short shifter. Take off hub cap and paint the black steel rims flat black. Fix the M3 mirrors and either go back to OEM mirrors, or a used CTR folding mirror. Body paint side molding, mirrors, rear licence plate panel, and the side boards. Get 2 new all season tires and new break pads (before winter comes). Lower the car with damper (aiming for Zeal B2).

I wish I could get all those done by the end of the year. Then next year, when the lease is up, pay off the buy back in full so I am done payment for this car. Do a major tune up around 96000 and get new timing belt. Continue to save money for some more bars and a set of Spoon 15" SW388.

Then the year after, CF hood.

Then the year after, which will be... 2006 (LOL), I will go either swap or turbo.

The year after that, get married.

imported_toyman29 14-Jul-2003 10:47 PM

nice ride fellow yellow man
get a set of SIRs or GSRs
and your good to go!

diesel 14-Jul-2003 11:06 PM

Super Clean Look! Good stuff man
:thumbup: :kickass:

imported_Torrey 14-Jul-2003 11:37 PM

It's looking good!

imported_jj2ii3344 14-Jul-2003 11:47 PM

nice nova!!
I finally get to see your car!!
Even better and cleaner than I imagined!

Can I ask you a Q??
What do you plan to do when it snows, are you worried that you will crack the bumper??

ADR3NLYN_EK 15-Jul-2003 12:27 AM

nice front bumper

bbarbulo 15-Jul-2003 08:55 AM

Nice! You are hurting for some susp and rims tho :)

Nova_Dust 15-Jul-2003 09:51 AM

jj2, my car has met snow already with that bumper. It doesn't really crack. Well like I said before, I cracked my OEM bumper due to huge ice bank on my driveway so that's the mistake I learned.

I also learned with this bumper that never drive on the bus lane because buses have higher clearance which means in general the snow will be higher then other roads. (on a really really bad day) When my car goes over, snow will be coming onto my window from the bumper lol.

Imagine after I lowered it.... LOL but ya, I will raise it back to stock height in winter for sure.

bbarbulo 15-Jul-2003 10:34 AM

Get an aftermarket el-cheapo front bumper for like $100 for wintertime. Don't even paint it :p use it to plow your driveway :nods:

Nova_Dust 15-Jul-2003 11:12 AM

I am having trouble taking off my bumper lol. I gotta buy those OEM pins cause the ones I have now is sorta hard to get out, I think I have to cut them off.

I guess I should have kept my broken bumper for winter eh?

Nova_Dust 15-Jul-2003 06:09 PM

Nice... and it is raining now LOL

Worry free, time to use some McG Quic Detailer tomorrow before I go to KC meet!

imported_Googoo 15-Jul-2003 06:41 PM

Nice ride. I was looking for an UN modded dx with air a few months ago. I couldn't find one, so I bought a new coupe LX.

Where did you get the sunroof done?? Any leaks or squeeks??

Goo

imported_gatherer 15-Jul-2003 06:42 PM

why won't you pick up chicks in an older car????

imported_jj2ii3344 15-Jul-2003 07:08 PM

yoooo nova man, really want to see ur car in person man
are u a gum mo??

Nova_Dust 15-Jul-2003 08:11 PM

gum mo? no bro I am Chinese, and the hair is black, not dyed.

Are you gonna be at the meet tomorrow? If so you can see my car.

Googoo, Honda sends the car out to a place where they get all the cars done for leather and sunroof. The ones that don't come with leather and sunroof options.

I just replaced the sunroof rails, it opens quite smooth now. As for leakage, yes there is and they claim it is fixed but apparently, it still gets wet at the back. I might send the car in again for check up. But all and all, no rust.

imported_Googoo 18-Jul-2003 10:17 AM

Thanks, now I need to question whether it's worth the money!

Goo

SilverCRXSi 18-Jul-2003 10:45 AM

Nice car Nova!
Now black out those headlights and you're good to go!
Keep it up! :thumbup:

Nova_Dust 20-Jul-2003 04:13 AM

Not sure if I can do the black housing properly... don't want to overbake them LOL

imported_QRTR 21-Jul-2003 12:01 PM

Finally saw your car up close dude, very nice...:nods:

ryuujin 21-Jul-2003 12:33 PM

Doesn't GooGoo mean something else in Chinese? :D :naughty:
