What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

[anze]

I got myself a set of genuine Honda black wheel nuts to use with OEM wheels (got different wheels for winter). In comparison with OEM nuts the black ones are about 6 milimeters shorter, everything else looks and feels the same.

Any tips for how to tighten them without scratching them too much?

Looks great! How hard was it tucking in the wrap around the window and mirror buttons?

Changed out my high beams with Hikari 6000K LEDs, low beams with Morimoto Elite HID Kit (5500K and 35W ballasts), and got 3000K LEDs for my fog lights. Also put a yellow lamin-x film over the fogs. Pretty happy with the results. Definitely get better vision with the HIDs compared to those crappy stock halogen bulbs.

Finished my detail work on the car (polish/glaze, carnauba wax). I wish I had a better camera, but you get the gist.

Looking good. Didn’t you have smoked side marker lights?

I have them in my closet right now. I have a love/hate relationship with the blacked out look on my Cosmic Blue car. At times it looks cool and at times I think it looks dull. For now I run the stock amber lenses with Phillips LEDs.

Same issue with wheels. I'm looking to go aftermarket but Cosmic Blue is a tough color to choose wheels for. I go back and forth between gunmetal, silver and the stock machined/black look.

Duckbill looks awesome. How bad was the install and which spoiler is that?

Installed FKX Racing 15mm spacers today. Pardon the salt...it just snowed yesterday.

I had to shave a few millimeters off the lug pockets on the OEM sport wheels. I preferred this over the 20mm spacers, even knowing I'd have to do a bit extra.

It's lowered on H&R Sport springs, but I didn't settle the car after jacking it up. I may put up another photo (if I remember).

Factory was a Bi8ch to remove. Rest was pretty simple. Bought one from here https://www.ebay.com/itm/FOR-16-19-HONDA-CIVIC-SEDAN-V3-GLOSSY-BLACK-HIGHKICK-DUCKBILL-TRUNK-SPOILER-WING/192878203552?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
Bought some 3M tape, cleaned everything up well, and simple to install.

Can you share some shots of the low beam at night? I've been thinking about doing HID myself, but I'm not sure if I should change the projector or not.
