lol Danny_mart is back!!!

Oh and anyone suggest which one better the pedders spring or kings?

I've heard nothing but bad comments regardingpedders springs and shocks. I've never tried 'em. Probably same crap as kings, but i think kings is normally cheaper.

Mine are no longer there lols. I think on first day I scraped 50% of them off, and there was a "thread of plastic" hanging down!

Just add rice!
identical to the OEM sticker the U.S Civics get, same dimensions etc..

Yeah i know, theres a tonne of earth all over the car

Btw it looks crooked in the first photo because the way the photo was taken.
I measured it up to assure myself this isnt the case, its dead straight, the door moulding below is on angle...

lol, rice indeed. I'm not sure I want to advertise my car as only being SOHC... then they know for sure it ain't got vtec.

Fuel economy i-vtec for the win!

Well... atleast you ain't lying and putting i-vtec DOHC or turbo or type r stickers on :P

Since we are in the topic of badges. I've thought of a cheaper way to get an instant JDM look which might cost less than 10 bucks.

My plan is to go to a sign shop and buy a small amount of Red vinyl sticker, an A3 size would be suffiecient and putting it in between the "H" badges for that instant JDM look. Even a carbon fibre vinyl would look good as well. The rear badge is the easies to do as you only have to take off the badge and cut the Red vinyl sticker to size and put the badge back on.

The front, you need to take out the badge as well, but you need a tin piece of plate around 0.5mm thick cut to the same dimensions of the front badge border. You then cover it with the Red vinly sticker and place it in between the grille and the "H" badge.

Thanks for posting that pic shimian, I already debadged the trim level badge and was eventually gonna remove the civic as well. Looks good, might get around to it sooner.

im thinking of just buying a rear RED H for like $65. Regarding the red stickers to go between the H badge, i have already done that to the steering wheel H. Not sure how good it will stay on if exterior.

It should work as thats the type they use to make exterior signs for cars. I'll post pics when I get a chance to do mine. Can you let us know how you did you steering wheel emblem?
