#46066 I would sell you it bro, but it's broken :lol: some penis rode into the back of me on a bike and flew over my trunk breaking it. Also I hate it so I had to ditch it at some point anyway. Thats for the positives :thumb:

#46135 I've never seen an antenna like that on any Civic, al UKDM coupes have it like that??
That little weener on the end of the A pillar just looks so darn wrong :lol:

Regarding corners; I'd def. go with ambers, but not the clear glass type.

Regarding radiator; I'd go with a Mishimoto full length if you really want a full size... very affordable and great quality.
An acquaintance of mine has a 12sec EG Civic pure for drag racing, putting out at least 450hp on a build 2 liter B18, and he's rocking a half size Mishimoto, like me.
And now he did some work on it, like a bigger turbo and exhaust system etc, still using the half size Mishimoto...
So IMO, a half size will do, the full size radiator will only limit room for your turbo (since you mentioned an intercooler, I just assume you're going to boost it).

WTF? lol :lol:

Yeah, I'm gonna boost this, I was looking at them Mishimoto rads and was gonna get one. Proberly will next pay day. As for full length, thanks on the heads up about the turbo and room, I never thought about it TBH.
I think I will go with the ambers, cause it looks sexy with the black but IDK yet I'll wait and see when the cars been painted.

As I'm ditching the radio antenna I recently bought a gauge holder for the DIN slot on the dash...

Image

But before I install it I'm gonna paint it black.

Next is to buy some AutoGauges. :thumb:

#46161 May I suggest another brand of gauges?

http://prosport.com

I've got my gauges from Thailand or something via eBay, wich made it pretty cheap to, and they're awesome IMO... not DEFI gauges but seriously... they're good.
BTW; try to get the peak/hold ones, they have steppermotors, fully electric, so that's pretty good :)

BTW, I put them on the dashboard, IMO... that looks even better.

#47379 Small update, I bought a front cross member. None of the UKDM Civic's have them, so I thought I would be different...

Teaser with fitted old effed bumper...

Image

It then started raining / snowing so I ripped the CD player out and test fitted the DIN gauge holder...

Image

I can't wait until next month when I get some cash and can actually get this bitch sorted. :cry:
Next months update will be better as when this snow stops and I actually get some sun I will be rattlecaning this in black. Also in March it's getting slammed on Tein Basic's, well proberly just lowered... Cause of the BS UK roads, even though we pay enough money for road tax, wankers. But right now I can't do any work because of the effing snow :x Stay tuned :)

Which do you guys thinks looks better on my Coupe between;

Spoon N1

Image

Skunk2 Mega Power

Image

I love the sound of the Spoon and the Skunk2 but IDK if the Spoon looks too small for the Coupe?
