Hope you try to keep it OEM - any future plans?  
			
		 
	 
 Thanks - Its only a CXI though    
 
I have been slowly upgrading it with all OEM parts (apart from the stereo and such).  
The next things for me will be some Amber foggies,  JDM visors and an EK9 shift boot. That being said, if any other nice EK9 goodies pop up, Ill see what happens.

 Sounds like you plan your mod parts with a bit of thought - good to see. Look forward to maybe even seeing a build thread   
 
EK9 rear lip and wing would really look the goods - keep up the good work!

 Cheers. Yeah, with this car it has pretty much been. Save up money, research and then wait a bit. So far I am pretty happy with the result.  
I would make a build thread, but I am not sure how interested people would be. Progress is pretty slow on this car, and all the mods are just subtle. Haha.  
 
I've been thinking of doing an EK9 rear lip in the same ABS plastic as the rest of the lips around the car. But I am not sure as to how it would look. At the moment it is all finished by the mud flaps.

 Don't worry man, my build has been going for more than 2 years! I'm so frickin' slow in my old age lol - but i don't like doing all mods in one or two months, no fun to me, would just feel like a rush job.  
 
But I think the guys on the forum would like to see another clean EK hatch build thread! And get some advice from them as well - they've always helped me out

 As everyone knows, my suggestion is OEM all the way or quality Japanese parts> Yes, it costs a bit more, but lasts longer, looks better, looks cleaner and you can always part the car out one day and make most of your money back - so in the long run it's really much the muchness... you just pay more to start with. 
 
Post a link if you decide on a build thread!
