Nice result tho man thanks for the report cards on this one its nice.. the only mild thing i can say is im not real fond of the wing but move to bismarck and youd see why fuckin flamers but all in all the work paid off clean shit man lovin the paint

I think his civic looks very nice and clean. His rims are maybe a tad to exotic for my taste, but I still think they look great.

this thing had a HUGE 3 piece wing. It drilled into the drunk lid AND the car itself. So that had to go. I had to shave the holes in the car that were right along the body line.....sucked ass! So instead of risking warping the trunk lid when welding the holes shut, I got a factory wing to cover the holes on the trunk lid. I liked the no wing style, but due to the time restraint, this was my best alternative.

Not sure where the "Ricer Helper Outer Guy" is at. Maybe we need to shine like a symbol of a big aluminum wing in the sky and wait till he flies in. I would be interested to see what he has to say about my "rice"

HOT.... car looks good. A job well done, even in a time crunch!

[btleier]

is that really common to have happen when welding holes in a trunk lid... I'm looking to do to mine, I got an aftermarket spoiler that is smaller for my srt4.

[green6767]

no, not if you take your time and be patient. Going too fast will warp the shit outa any body panel. What also helps is this goop stuff you can get that you put around the area you're welding and it cools the weld faster. Works great, but I cant recall the name of it. Just take your time.......thats the best advice I can give ya.

I was thinking about having that TJ kid that works at roadsounds in fargo do it. i was told he does good work. do you know him? would you trust him to do such a thing?

[green6767]

I have only met TJ a couple of times. I never worked with him. I started at Roadsounds in Minot shortly after he quite. I would definately use someone who has some previous experience though!

[treimche]

Civic looks good man. I've always been a fan of that body style SI, and now there's going to be one running around with a B16B, which is kinda neat. Good work.

well what about you, you seem to have previous experience? would you ever want to do something like that? your car turned out nice....

just so that everyone here knows im not doggin your car dude

its a very well put together car i love it i want it....

but stock or not i still dont have a good opinion about wings like i have a tiny one on my car and its only still on there to plug the holes..
judging from the earlier pics i didnt remember there being a wing on it so i thought you chose this wing and i was like uhh ouch but its great
the car is a solid 9 for a daily driver

[ticklemedaly]

great car, great color, IMO you need a rear lip to match the rest of the underbody. Love the color, very close to mine but a little darker. Any mods to the engine or is it just a swap? You should also get some times posted, as I need to get out to a track and see how well mine runs for comparison. All in all, LOVE IT!!!

[btleier]

I know he has intake, and exhaust....

I agree with you completely. I had ordered a wings west rear lip for it, but it never came in time so i cancelled the order. I will order again here when I get settled in Fargo and get a permanant address and find a place decent to paint it since I will have no supplies, shop, paint booth to paint it myself.

I would be happy to help you out Blake on your trunk. Get me your number and what not and I'll get ahold of you when I get to Fargo and we can look at it and talk about it more.

[King Ricer]

your car looks really clean in person, i saw you drive down main today around 3:15ish, i was in the blue civic hatch.

[bluejays]

i've always had a thing for those coupes there really nice. you do need a rear lip though. i am personally in the process of an itr conversion.

I saw this car yesterday. The paint looks STUNNING in the sunlight, and the wheels looked good too.
