I think that is it but there are so many parts i may have missed some.





So i thought it would be kind of fun to make a build thread of my previous project.

So i bought this car in 2009. It was the first car i owned, and i never could leave well enough alone.

2005 Honda Civic LX special edition (5spd of course)





My first mod was to try to make a cold air intake. I got halfway there...





Then, it was my first set of wheels. (Please forgive the quality this was on a flip phone)



I obviously didn't realize 18"s looked like garbage at stock ride height at first, so i tried again...





Here is the first time i lowered it on some springs.





Here is where i started to realize that this was not the way.



So i bought some oem wheels again, and some coilover sleeves.



Again, this was not low enough and had reverse rake, so i bought some racelands (i know, i know. They did the job though.)



This was a whole new world. A new fantastic point of view!



It needed a whole new way to go however.









This was at my first Import Alliance way back in the day in Nashville





Then the car got rear ended (for the first time)



Right after i fixed that i got a trade offer for these guys. This is where i started to learn how to fit a set of wheels on a car.







The pains of a slammed car



Annnd then i blew it up for the first time!



And decided the wheels should be blue...







Please forgive my younger self...



Blue wasn't catchy enough so why not try highlighter yellow?



I then took this thing down to Charleston SC and Charlotte IA for a fun trip.





It was about this time i learned about the Bosozoku style. Lord (and neighbors) forgive me.







This was before a Static X concert. My buddy showed up in a bone stock TT supra...



Then i got rid of the dumbass blast pipe. Exhausts were piling up at this point.



Painted the wheel black, and then promptly sold them.



Then the car got broken into for the first time....



Then i got some new shoes again (was kind of a wheel whore at this poing) but this time i got the fitment correct.









Curbed them and painted them (because i can't park)





parked under the bosses truck for fun





Car got broken into again...



And then it got rear ended (again)
