mrtekk44 · my project

here is the project i just start doing about 6 months now. i still havent gotten it painted yet, bc i still deciding if i should go with the ef9 front bumper. i think it looks nicer. i need to take recent pics, its just that my camera on my phone broke so im asked out. i just finish my mpfi conversion last week, got it started but it runs shitty, im guessing it the ls dizzy im using? if any one can help please pm me! im also getting ready for turbo. i got everything on except for the piping, i want to get the car running right first. but enough talking. i hope you like what i done so far.

Is that a DA lip on it too?

mrtekk44

its just primered, light grey, i have no money right now to paint it haha lol. the lip? no its the oem lip that came with the front end. i used the da lip on my oem front end tho. it fits perfect you just got to cut the ends.

EvanFullwood

you will need to convert your car to the ef2 front. i havent seen any pics of anybody car with just the lights.

hey i notice that ur head lights dont sit flush with the hood. what i did i put washers in the back of the head light braket in the bottom ones and the sit flush now. ur car is looking good what color u wanna paint it?

I think you should not worry about the hatch bumper. It doesn't line up well with the JDM front.

89civicracer

Car is coming along. . Razz

mrtekk44

yeah i know. when i bought the front end, it was the last set, so knowing how i am, if i wait for another set, ill spend me money haha lol so i just bought the front end. the hood looked like it was pushed in and the fender was bent. but lucky i have a cousin that use to own a body shop, he did the body work and primered it for me in his garage hahal, he told me the body shop would of charged me 400 just for the hood, thats how bad it was. but i think he did a good job. well thats why the hood looks like it doesnt line up well. im thinking about getting it painted frost white or pure white.

i agree i still cant find the filler piece. i think im just going to try to fix mine.

mrtekk44

this is my old civic i had back in i had back in 2004. i got the front end for really cheap, but it was missing the radiator support. i just barely got into the jdm scene so i just slapped it on. ghetto rigged haha lol everything but the lights and bumper went on right. sold it in 2005 bc i moved out of state for alil i regret it, thats why i picked up another one.[/img]

mrtekk44

havent been on for awhile i just picked up a set of type r suspension today. i already hooked up the front. i was trying to do the back too but it got dark. i will post up some pics of it tomorrow.

89civicracer

NICE.. . I agree with SP. . it was hard to appreciate the pics and your work in those photographs. . pan out. .

mrtekk44

yeah i know. the reason all the pics are close is because i was crammed in by my neighbors car. so i couldnt take any far pics.

hey has any one done a cut out for the jdm fog lights? i just picked a set up, i took my bumper out and saw an outline behind the bumper where it looks like it belongs, so i cut a square hole following the near the line so that it wasn't too big for the fog lights. i used a drywall knife so it didnt turn out nice. any help?

mrtekk44

havent been on for awhile, im in the process of doing a , wire tuck/ brake line tuck/rhd conversion with the ef6 clip. (crx dual carb) i like that crx dash. sry i dont have any pics right now but i will post it up when i can.[/img]
