Your Mods To 2006-2011 FD Civics

[applio]

cool, i didn't know all those could be replaced with the T10.

Those blue one's on the side look very nice but the blue LED on the rear looks very rice ! haha

as for the LED bulb and the glass bulb, how much brighter is it would you say? a huge difference in light output?

I'll prob installed a LED on the front for better visibility and a artic blue on the rear's for the sexy look

i can say they a little brighter abt 2x or 1.5x, and the color is more nice, is pure white, as these blue glass bulb will change color after period of time, but led wont change color
and LED had a longer service life compare with halogen bulb.

Tested my eagle eyes to see if they worked. Damn i was impressed when they lit up. Will be installing them in a couple of weeks time.

Damn those look hot. So how much did you get them for all inclusive?

As nice as they are... I don't think I could afford to throw out my HIDs^^

[Shimian]

i get them from a wholesaler. I might decide to sell them if theres interest so i wont disclose my price

hi,

i was going to buy a civic.. so in anticipation I bought this grill in Bangkok.
ive since decided against buying the car.

this wasnt easy to find in Bangers and considering its already in Sydney I;ve saved some buyer the worry about freight from o/s.

so the grill is up for sale on ebay at
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130189984434

this is probably against forum rules, but this points system doesnt allow me to post it in the sales sections.

thanks for the past advice but 31k+ for a Honda Sport was a little too much to digest.

You paid $100+ for a replica CF grille?! It looks alright but wouldn't pay $150aud for it mate. The picture doesn't make it clear whether it's actually replacing the huge piece of chrome which comes with the Civic, or if it just sits/wraps on top.

Good luck selling it. It looks nice but I'm cheap!

[faction]

Yeah, I'd be interested but $150 AUD is a bit much. PM if you're willing to drop the price a bit.

[AWD]

If you check the website and convert the thai baht to aussie dollars it equals $150. Those places sell cheaper versions that have a carbon fibre weave sticker. This is real carbon fibre with layers of gloss.

The grill replaces the existing grill and has mounting holes etc. You stick your own chrome/red Honda badge back in place and happy days.

LOL I guess there is a quality difference between different replicas :) Although not quite sure how you could trust one to be genuine CF...

[faction]

I noticed it's pickup only anyway, so :(

[AWD]

Big difference in quality.

I guess I cant be 100% sure but my wife grew up a few streets away from MBK, Bangkok, (ie speaks the language) and the guys at R Style have another shop outside of MBK. They dont need to deal with tourists so have little reason to lie.
Maybe it isnt real CF but the weave has depth and looked good enough to buy on the spot.

I was surprised at the price of things compared to the average thai wage. It must get expensive. But if anyone knows thais they love their cars..

A shot of the back to clear things up.

ROFLMAO I haven't been to MBK in SEVEN years. Last time I went there I was in high school and was looking for Gameboy games for my (new at the time) Gameboy Pocket! How times have changed.

[ryanc]

just a random question
if im interested in getting a mugen replica kit
what material should i look for in it's build?
should the spoiler be different (cant be too heavy right?) material?

[cracker]

lol ur right its all about selling stuf lol

[JaCe]

[denot]

[Shimian]

[cracker]

[JaCe]

I was about to buy the genuine which I was offered at a good price; but then replica is still more than $1k cheaper (but it's unpainted and will cost more to fit).

But
still hunting for JDM CTR Red H steering wheel emblem (last piece of JDM CTR Red H):p
and will consider 2din dash panel (if 2din aftermarket HU with intergrated GPS available) and red/black leather seat cover CTR style + re-trim door panel in the future:zip:
Thanks for looking :honda:


hey your from newcastle.
ive seen this car, drove past u on darby street one day.
very nice

[markCivicVti]

red h badge suits the black quite nicely... i might consider this if i dont end up getting the mugen grille.

[denot]

is there any blue H badge for FDs?

[JaCe]

I've seen a replica blue H badge, as well as a H badge which lights up in blue... but both were replicas.

Also neither was designed specifically for the FD's slots- just generic badging which you can DIY fit.

[cracker]

yeah i seen that ricey light up blue thing...thats just as rice as u can get...like more ricey then using glue to put rice on ur car just to make a point on how ricey u are

[TurBIce]

i had mugen grille before but end up for sale.
too dark for me if black color with mugen grille. i like a contrast combination such black with chrome, or white with mugen grille.

LOLs medical building~ guess you can take photos anywhere. Nice shots though. I wish I could improve my photo taking ability... even with various techniques, when shooting indoors in carparks, only 1 out of every 10 shots is a keeper... or maybe even 1 in 15. But I guess it's that "1" which you love :)

Yea, LOL, i have modulo kit but mugen spoiler and grille. Modugen sounds like something from street fighter :thumbsup:

[oniononline]

OMG Shimian... looks like ur car want to eat somebuddy :P looks awsome !

Have you put up your rear mugen spoiler yet?

[Shimian]

OMG Shimian... looks like ur car want to eat somebuddy :P looks awsome !

Have you put up your rear mugen spoiler yet?

yes i have.. no photo thou :(

Also wanted to change the bottom area (fog light and lower bumper) to wired mesh. The only problem with doing it is that you have to physically cut away the grille. So if you want to return to stock look, youll need litres of super glue :D

[denot]

shimian!!! thats soooo cooollll!!!! i want one for my bday in a month!!!! :p

[markCivicVti]

Very nice Shimian!! Those new headlights do make quite a difference... I was sceptic at first - but now I'm a believer :P

Wish I had money to blow on my FD... well... I am starting a new better paying job in a week or two... so perhaps then.

[denot]

shimian, when u have time to take more pics... can you also take pics of how the visibility and or cut off looks like from the driver seat? ;p (atm, I'm still trying to 'persuade' my fiance on getting this one for my bday :p)

oh and how many Ks is your HID?

doesn't the USDM civic rear light look like an A4?

[denot]

that or a reverse of G35 Skyline (infiniti)?

[BC8]

guys,

want to fit 17" wheels to my FD1

will 17x7 +42 5x114.3 fit without any problems? Whats the size everyone using for 17's?

The lower the offset, I might encounter more problems?

[xqwzit]

those will fit fine..
i reckon just get anything between 40-48 u will be alright

[JaCe]

doesn't the USDM civic rear light look like an A4?

lol i thought so too. In hindsight, I think the JDM ones look better... although that being said I wouldn't be upset with the USDM one. The JDM front is miles ahead of the USDM model however so kudos to that owner!

ya, agree with you there. in another observation, the audm civic rear lights are a little like the Jetta's?. Honda must be seeking inspiration from Volks/Audi:honda:

[Shimian]

shimian, where do i get these angel eyes headlights from and how much are they???

From a supplier. Cant really disclose price but i can say its under $450


Here are some night shots.

Cut off with car infront about 6-7 metres away. The light is much brighter and whiter when seeing it in person. No glare when looking in the rear view mirror inside the jazz.

[ryanc]

omg looks blinding ...

[Shimian]

Its not blinding at all. Like i mentioned, test it by sitting in a car and looking in the rear view mirror. No glare. Also drove down the opposite direction, also no glare. It looks blinding cos i took a photo at beam level.
With the stock headlamps, i had MTEC white halogens and OMG, that was blinding. Light was not bright but heaps of glare when looking at the rear view mirror.

[kazam]

u shouldah got BLUE eagleyes.. they wouldah stood out more and bin sexy as.. still these look good 2..

[Shimian]

blue eagle eyes? Theres such a thing? Any pics?

[JaCe]

Popular in Asia- I always thought they would be defect material in Aus because they are blue (i.e. coppers colour)

[Shimian]

ive never seen blue eagle eyes. Ive seen blue angel eyes only

[denot]

hey shimian, that looks nice... hmmmm very very tempting... :p

[Shimian]

hey shimian, that looks nice... hmmmm very very tempting... :p

Seriously, i recommend every civic owner to get them. Even if they werent eagle eyes, just the projector factor is A+. You will not have problems with blinding people with HIDs. Also, makes the car look sexier overall.

[denot]

shimian, have u ever test it under the heavy rain? like, is there any leaking or any other problem?

[Shimian]

hasnt rained yet. Ive thrown water on it and nothing. I dont think there would be problems as people in taiwan, singapore, malaysia and thailand all had these headlamps for almost a year. If there were problems, youd hear about it.

Farewell mate. Good having you contribute on the forums and hope you enjoy your move o/s.

(and damn should've asked you for more info on your catback exhaust!)

[JaCe]

are the chrome door handles an actual replacement of the door handle, or just a n adhesive sticker?

The ones you buy off eBay and so on are just stickers; although if you're in Asia it is possible to buy OEM Chrome handles- I didn't bother asking about it though because I knew it wouldn't be cheap.

[Shimian]

chrome bowls and handles are cheap. But i was told they make the car look cheap as the material is not that good.

[xenfacta]

i like the handles not the bowls.....

[cracker]

ahhh im such a ricer

[Shimian]

Just some feedback on the eagle eyes for those who pm'd me.

Last night it rained pretty hard and there was no sign of water getting into the lamps. I checked under the bonnet and into the lens, no sign of water, mist, moisture etc.

[civic_07]

...I checked under the bonnet and into the lens, no sign of water, mist, moisture etc.


Thats good to hear champ :thumbsup:. I really want to have them on mine but dont know any1 in Sydney do these kind of mods. Also the car is just 2 months old so Im kind of holding back atm. :o

[cracker]

what kind of mod do u need installed?

[JaCe]

Hey Shimian, I am interested in these things now.. just curious, since I have HIDs already installed for the outer beams in the front, will these fit "inside" the angel eyes? Or would I lose 'em altogether if I replaced with the projector style headlamps?

[darkshines]

Can we keep the same ballast? and just change the lamp from HB4 to H7? possible i wonder?

[xqwzit]

yes u can keep the same ballast and just change the bulb to H7...

[Shimian]

not sure if you can just get a converter and keep ballast. But the headlamp uses H7 for low beams

looks hawt, is that a civic sport? cos i don't see that side mirrors indicators? but the wheels looks like it?

oh yeah for the projectors, chrome ones or blacked out ones for a dark colour car? which is better?
i think depend on ur grille, if u use stock grille better get the chrome, if use mugen griille use the black one

OMG! we indos should have a meet up planned :p

[warwick108]

Just a quick question.. the bodykit from auto platonium comes in black right? did you have to repay it to the nighthawk black for your car? or did you just fit it straight on? Thanks

[denot]

i think its not "painted black" but its "unpainted black" as in you wont see any metalic/clear coating and stuff... in other words, fugly! :p

[Stig]

thats exactly what I wanna do with my black fd.. but I want black ep3 rims.. not white.. =))

LOL i have a unpainted grille on my NH black Civic. You could always argue it looks like the matte black used on one side of DK's Fairlady in Tokyo Drift :)

I reckon unpainted black would look okay for the lip kit since it would look kinda sporty perhaps? *shrugs* Wait and see!

[xqwzit]

^not really i fitted my unpainted black kit at front and rear and it looks gay lol
PM for pics :P

[cracker]

u know i have a problem when im trying to judge my distance infront of the car.

[Hacs]

But The RZA told me that he doesn't have that same problem....lol

nah i think its just a matter of gettin' used to ?

[cracker]

yes daz tru...are u trying to make fun of me?

[warwick108]

Just wondering.. you know how you can get the accent lighting from the honda dealer (seen pictures pretty shit if u asked me).. or u can get the neon lights from like autobarn or wateva (but they look way to bright).. can you actually put the neons underneith the front seats? instead of the leg room area??

[cracker]

hmm i have neons they rnt that bright to be a nuisance.... i guess you could put them underneath ur seats but i think leg room is better

[kazam]

yes u can put it under the front seats. use the sticky bit to stick it and then cable ties... IMO led's from ebay are your best buy, paid $50 for 8... very VERY bright led's, ask cracker his seen em...

[cracker]

stay out of the fd thread...we dont take kindly to ur kind around here

[warwick108]

lol.. fd all the way.. I saw a honda group today at pancake palour at doncaster.. =).. quite a few eg's.. or ek.. =S

No, I was originally going to but it cost nearly as much as the grille. I figured it looked alright :P

... but on a sidenote, as I'm getting a full kit sprayed, I will probably get the grille done too.

4th, don't like mugen RR/dominator grille (carbon fiber also still little bit dark for black color)

for the whole looks, black and white are the best.
but in white color, we can little bit play with the color combination !

[warwick108]

I think people want white because its got the type r look? and your right it blents with other colors alot better.. like red?... if i had to choose again i wouldve chosen either purple or white.. I dont see why people seem to hate the purple so much.. firend owns a fd2 in misty purple. I reckon its pretty hot..

I think white FD turned out to be a surprise in how good it looked with the black contrasts- "exceptionally good" would be my remark. I thought it would look bland like a Corolla but instead it looked really hot. Black is always going to look good, but it doesn't always look exceptionally good.

bryan.. that is freaking awesome!!

[JaCe]

thanks bryan. i thought the one u had was different to the mugen sports silencer for sale here on jdmconcept. might go back to BK to get an exhaust done sometime- but it would be nice if it actually made the car more responsive; i've found the intake system to be really effective (thanks to b & j for installing it).

Even with my legal tint on my left/right windows; reversing in the dark and rain (as recently it's been storming alot in Sydney) down a hill is bloody difficult when there's also no street lighting (such as on a driveway).

Had to wind down my windows in the rain so I could see *something* off the reflection in the side mirrors.

just the bulb ? no need. just read the manual book, how to change the fog light bulb

[SaBReT00tH]

It wasn't in my manual on how to change the fog bulb.

Hey does anyone know if HIDs are supposed to be aimed strangely? E.g. in Australia right light aiming mostly down lots whilst the other left one aimed to the left and up a lot more? (Possibly to prevent blinding)? That's how mine are.

r u sure ? it's in my manual.

[SaBReT00tH]

hey DMX, I found it thanks man :)

Hey people, I think I've discovered what the deal was with my eagle eyes. The dude who installed themmade the right one point down HEAPS. I'm guessing this is because of some legal requirement for HIDs to have the right one down more to prevent blinding of oncoming traffic?? Problem is, in the distance my car looks like a ****ing pirate. The left hand side light is looking nice and bright and slightly bluish whilst the right hand side one has barely any colour because it is pointed down and also looks MUCH MUCH duller, almost like it doesn't have any glow to it. I'm thinking that the right one should be aimed a smidgen upwards to equalise the glow of this light so it looks more similar to the other. Has anyone else had any problems with this? I opened my bonnet and it looks like to re-aim a little I will need to remove my front bumper.

Can anyone provide some help on how to remove the bumper and also re-aim the lights? Is it a matter or moving the light element around or actually pulling the housing apart and re-aiming the projector lens?

[JaCe]

I think the right hand side is purposely meant to be pointed down a bit so that it doesn't blind oncoming traffic... but ROFLMAO at your pirate comment.

Btw got 'em off eBay... I just hope not too many people do this otherwise my car will look the same as every other Civic again.

You can adjust the height of the beam by turning the white looking bolt on each of headlamp. On the drivers side, you can easily access it. I use a wrench. On the passenger side, you need to remove the white bottle. Then you will see the white looking bolt. Use a small + screw driver to turn it. Yes, the left side does shine higher even if you pull it to the lowest height. I have pulled my right side to the lowest height and it does seem to be not level with the left. I will experiment this week with raising the right side higher and test if it blinds oncoming traffic.

[JaCe]

Hey Jace ive noticed you have chrome exhaust tips, just wondering are they OEM and was it hard to install?

Nah man, but you need to have the right tools to tighten it. It's piss easy to install yourself- just slide two pieces of perfectly cut and smoothed metal onto the tips. If you know anyone who works at Honda, they should be able to get the tips for you pretty cheap.

Nah man, but you need to have the right tools to tighten it. It's piss easy to install yourself- just slide two pieces of perfectly cut and smoothed metal onto the tips. If you know anyone who works at Honda, they should be able to get the tips for you pretty cheap.

ps. yes they are OEM
first pair i got when bought the car, $90 include installation.
second pair, got only $50 not include install, easy DIY
means i got ripped $40 :(

LOL why'd you buy a 2nd pair? If the OEM ones fall off (as they do on the Sport) just tell the dealer and they should give you another one for free.

[Aco3n]

where did you get the OEM exhaust tip for $50? I was looking for this.. called one of the dealership.. quoted for $300??? cbf to spend that money just for a tip..

[xenfacta]

dude definitely not $300... dont know what that dealer was thinking

[markCivicVti]

My exhaust tips wwere 80 bucks installed.. tho i had them thrown in the deal for free... but definitly should be under 100

[Frost_FD]

Thanks Jace, I think this will be my next simple mod.
Just one more question. You know that VTi-L have the existing tips would you need to take that off or just put the new ones on top?

i got mine for 58$ uninstalled... dealer installation is such a rip

$50, that's from Honda dealer. may be ur dealer little bit confused between tip, muffler or exhaust :)
i think they called "chrome finisher"
exhaust, yes, they quote me around $600:thumbdwn:

[Aco3n]

thanks guys.. might need to confirm this with the dealer...

VTi-L doesn't have any (special?) tips on it. It's the same as VTi. I am a bit too lazy to scroll back through this thread but if you have time, I think it would've been around August/Septemberish last year, I posted photos of before and after. The before shot should show that you have two pipes sticking out (in layman's terms) which are dark grey in colour, not shiny, and not very attractive at all.

I'm just slightly concerned you may have already gotten tips from your dealer and not realised!

But to answer your question in a simple yes/no, when I installed the OEM Chrome Exhaust Tips, I literally just lined them up with the pipes, pushed in, and screwed in the included screws/bolts. No removal of anything required.

[SaBReT00tH]

Bodaas --> Are they 20 inch rims? and deep dish?

Shimian --> Where did u buy that Steering wheel honda badge from?

Jace --> Did u get those rear chrome lamps from US ebay for the US model of honda? They are stunning!!!! I agree with others comments. Makes this gem look like a Lexus!! Very nice!

Hey does anyone have any input for Civic Engine Mods which I posted on this thread: http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=86146
Was interested to findout what's better: CAI/Pod Filter/K&N Air Filter or extractors.

[dannybubu]

hey jace... with ur aftermarket tail lights have you noticed any water or moisture inside them? because i heard that if they don't fit properly moisture will form inside? so far so good?

[JaCe]

Nah mate they are Taiwanese-made accessories for the FD. But thanks for the compliment- I reckon they look good on a black car too.

Only time will tell but when I got the OEM ones removed, there was a bit of crap inside so I wouldn't be surprised if something got in. Like most aftermarket modules, they are 'plug and play' and thus they slot into the exact slot which the OEM ones were previously fitted to, so the moisture could potentially form between the module and the rest of the car, but I don't think this would be an issue. Hard to explain but here's a shot of what it looked like when it was being installed;

Also got a shot there of a direct comparison between aftermarket and OEM. I was too lazy to put on my other plates so you'll have to put up with a very carefully positioned white box courtesy of Microsoft Paint.

CAI is the best to me.

dmx i think is the full replacement airbag. My one is just a decal that fits into the gaps. Decal is thick and sits flush to the silver H part and silver square around

Nice pic is that you? lols... hate to tell you this but they aren't *that* rare in Singapore/Malaysia considering they are sold there. Then there's also the much more prevalent and acceptable parallel import...

... but nice shot :)

ps. ehehe it's parked in a disabled parking.

[kazam]

[cracker]

did u key it?

[r-r-redEuro]

those altezza headlights look awesome at night, kinda reminds me of the rear end of the holden r8 or something, i like it. but during the day id prefer the OEM. and night the led of the altezza own it.

[LD_Mart]

[Frost_FD]

Yes that is me,

I wouldnt like to ruin other ppls investments especially when my car got keyed.... from bumper to bumper

[kazam]

im kidding, i would never key a car, i'd rather break all the windows and steal his tyres than key the car... no balls in that, cheapest thing a person can do 2 a car is key it...

Lol, mine cost only about $10 AUD. I know carbon fibre is black. It looks kinda like it only in red print. Its hard to explain. During sunlight, it will give some sort of shiny, layered effect. Not complaining for the price i paid and few of my mates reckon its hot.

Tell us how it goes in the heat. I always wonder how these sorts of things last once the sun gets on 'em.

[Shimian]

yea. i thought about that too. The good thing is that it sits inbetween the silver parts, so the silver H kinda stops it from moving when hot. If it does move, i can always apply some thin 3m tape. $10, not expecting much

It looks best in darker environments since it doesn't look like the old stereotype of "rice clear lights" but instead, the shadow bit blends in with the rest of the car. e.g. carparks and at night (not necessarily in photos where you need to shine some light on it for it to take a photo)
