Mugen Si converted to TYPE R build thread

***wilbert recinos*** · 07-18-2009, 02:51 PM

UPDATE

Hey guys I can see that this thread is STILL getting some love/hate, lol...
Well for some personal reasons I had to sell EVERYTHING off the car, BUT I did keep it as a "wkend" car since I don't /can't drive it to work ect.... so its back to 99% OEM..

Here are some pics of a lil cruise with thai aka grim and another local mugen si owner friend of mines (jackie)...

My civic is the one with the "cool plates" 911 LG 7 lol..

BTW! Those FAKE fog lights are now gone... I got them replaced with OEM fog lights and 3K hid's...

Here are some other random pics Of the car back to stock BUT WINGLESS....

I still have the trunk/wing but I no longer like it.... so I got me an OEM LX trunk, then I got it painted andbought a OEM civic si trunk trim and innertail lights.. oem of course...
Enjoy and lmk what you think of it now...

24boosted · 07-18-2009, 03:07 PM

Badass, a tad bit overkill on the carbon though.

FA5Tenough · 07-18-2009, 03:09 PM

It looks really good! You sure you don't wanna paint the fenders? Still looks great nonetheless!

K20z3 Civic Si [PHONG] · 07-18-2009, 03:10 PM

Very nice! Now you need some wheels

tehcodeman · 07-18-2009, 03:14 PM

Fenders look great. Don't paint them.

Superb job!

***Geovone*** · 07-18-2009, 03:17 PM

IMOH, paint the fenders...regardless, COTM worthy

MannyP305 · 07-18-2009, 03:24 PM

i see u still didnt fix that fender gap

FG*newb · 07-18-2009, 03:26 PM

fapfapfapfapfap CF fenders!

The Ted · 07-18-2009, 03:26 PM

Damn that looks good. I'm not really feelin the chrome grill though. I'd say get one of the Mugen grills for the FD2 since you started out with a Mugen. Also, I'd paint the trunk, hood, and fenders, but that's just me. Still look way hot!!

Oh, and wider wheels.
