My "Indecisive" FD1 Build. Update!

Hello Ozhonda, this is my FD1 build.

I bought the car back in 2011, brand new, as a means from home to work, I didn't think much of modding until I came across Ozhonda and 8thcivic. And realized... this family orientated sedan, has some sweet potential!

And so.. the mod bug hit. It hit hard. This was my first car, I had no idea what was what, I basically learnt as I went along.

The reason why I called this an Indecisive build(besides the fact I have no idea what to call my build), as it takes me weeks, months to decide to mod any part of my car. And when I do mod it.. I end up wanting to change it, in some cases I do.. very costly.

I must give heaps of thanks to lolmclol, jprak, Honda_FD, stevo1210 and others for the assistance/inspiration into my build!

Anyway here it goes!

WHOA. Where did you get that rear lip from? I have NEVER seen an RR lip that was able to accomodate for stock dual tip exhaust!

OTRmotorsports they both have dual or single outlet exhaust. and yes the dual (sports tip) will fill up the gap of where the exhaust is coming out.

need them wheels and suspension done asap!

Where you located? If NSW, I can't help you, I don't want another FD with them tailights! ahha I'll upload sometime when I get the chance.

In the mean time, replaced interior fabric seats, with FD2 black leather interior + door trims.

And like Jprak, I added DRLs, the ones for the Mugen RR front lip

I'm never gonna stop..

ahahha , I kid. I was afraid of the possiblity of it not performing well during the daylight, but the tailights themselves are "smoked" so it does help I suppose.

I have to add, it also ISN'T plug and play, FAR FAR from it, definitely need someone who knows what they are doing to install it.

Here's a quick shot, Yes I need to debadge , to complete the look
