It’s been a while but I’ve recently done a few things to my Civic this past 2 months.

1. KTuner - I bought the Phearable 1.5 Tune and the tune really changes your car in the way it performs.
2. Front Lip - I removed my old lip and replaced it with a new one that actually fitted my car. My old lip poked out to the side and I didn’t like how it looked so I bought a new one.
3. Mugen Side Mirrors - I bought the side mirrors because I loved the way it looked. I saw how much the original Mugen side mirrors cost and decided to stick to the replicas.

So far, this car build is far from over. The next mods I’m getting is the Borla Exhaust and the Advan AV20 rims.

I got a similar ride, and it seems we bought our cars around the same time. Following your build thread as it seems we have similar goals!

UPDATE:
After a long ass time saving up, I finally got the Borla exhaust. I was hesitant at first and was actually thinking of getting the Greddy. I wanted an aggressive sounding exhaust and I felt that the Borla was the most aggressive sounding exhaust I could find for the civic.
Now that I have the exhaust, I’m deciding if I want to focus on getting more performance mod or going with the cosmetic side for a bit. I was thinking of getting the PRL Race CAI because of the performance gains; but I also want new rims so who knows.

After a while I stopped modding my FK7. I lost interest but started getting motivated again.

here are the recent mods I got
1. New front lip with lights (had to cut off the lights because I didn’t wanna risk my lip falling off and having the wires go with it)
2. VLand Taillights
3. ESR CS12 (18x9.5 +35 w/ 235)
4. D2 Lowering Springs
5. Custom Tune by DRob (I was waiting for this for a long time and I can say that it was worth it.)

So far I am satisfied with the build but I’m far from done.In the future I want to get a Voltex wing and upgrade my headlights.
