maiku's Taffeta White - project Anjeru
This is my progress page for my 2007 TW Civic Si.
 This car is my daily driver so I like to keep my mods practical as well as tasteful. I plan to keep it clean. I'll most likely keep it NA also. I love to auto-x so I'm serious about suspension and doing it right. Nearly all my mods are installed myself. Only for a few specialized items do I entrust her to the "professionals". So you may just see a couple mod in progress pics along w/ the finished pic. UPDATE JULY 08 - My car made it into HONDA TUNING MAGAZINE! yaaay!

Entirely stock April 2007   --------------------------------------------------------- 1st mod! 20% tint all around. May 07  The Clear bra went on also but no install pics. I dropped her off for that. --------------------------------------------------------- 8th Civic mod!  (has since been removed) --------------------------------------------------------- AUGER Shift Boot, black suede w/ red stitch The stock one..  Such an easy install. I went ahead and did the TMW SS while I was in there.   --------------------------------------------------------- They are here! TEIN Super Street Coilovers with EDFC!  Also added SKunk2 rear camber arms in gold. Late may 07Before the install...     Aftermath! I can still drop it about an inch or so.  --------------------------------------------------------- JDM side markers!! August 07  OMGGGGG a huge hole!!!   --------------------------------------------------------- FOG LIGHTS! I finally got around to putting them on as well. Aug 07   At the Florida Statewide meet!   AS you can tell I did a lot of things in August. Due because I've had these parts sitting around and my hours got cut at work so I had more free time --------------------------------------------------------- Also cleared the tails  --------------------------------------------------------- Oh wow... I got an amazing deal on an Avic-z1 for $800!! w/ dash kit!    Also got the Viper 5900 installed. Sorry no pics. It'd be boring.  --------------------------------------------------------- Sept 07 The Si Door sills are here! Thanks to Celcius for making an awesome product. :)  Also added.... FD2 Shift knob. I removed the lock-bolt so it'll sit lower and look cleaner.  --------------------------------------------------------- OCTOBER 07 I finally got my HID's installed. I used the kit that Orient Express recommended (his post is stickied in the HID section) 5k light output for the low beams AND fogs. the fogs aren't shown tho because I haven't finished wiring them up inside yet. I want to control them so they'll come on anytime. just waiting for a friend to come help. ANYWAY, onto the pics! side by side comparison to stock   not a bad cutoff for a cheap kit  I also installed my custom battery tie down by Celcius. "anjeru" is my car's name. ^_^v  Thanks to sleeperone I got the fogs wired up to come on anytime, and with the HID's in there it's extremely sekzy   I also got a new mascot, domo-kun!   --------------------------------------------------------- DEC and JAN CUSTOM FIBERGLASS 10" Phoenix Gold system. Made by me. Not completely installed yet since I need a mono amp because I decided to only use one sub (it's damn loud w/ just one 10". The material is temporary. It's tweed. Looks much better in person. The pattern doesn't come out well in pics. I wanna just match it to the trunk carpet as soon as I find some. No pics of Amp mountage yet b/c I don't have the right amp. I'ma prolly mount it under the seat tho if it'll fit.  Due to a little bumper scrape, I had the grill painted to match. Also did a nice 'lil detail to it. The sun wasn't out when I took these pics so it doesn't do it justice. More to come later when I can find a good stage for her.    --------------------------------------------------------------------------- FEBRUARY 2008 OMG, I JUST GOT NEW 18's!! 5zigen SC3000 in Hyperblack. @_@  check back in a couple days for some pics when I get them on. I have to drive 3 hr to get the clear bra redone on the front bumper so after I get back I'll bolt them up!! yeah son! HFP LIP KIT coming SOON!!! -------------------------------------------------------------------- I installed the rims today.  and picked up my HFP kit from Honda of the Avenue's! It came out to be $1123 after tax. Not bad.            --------------------------------------------------------- FEBRUARY, BEFORE STATEWIDE MEET I used a RR touch up pen to paint the custom Celcius made door sills. They came out GREAT!! I'm loving the results. It looks 100% better IMO. BEFORE  AFTER   ----------------------------------------------------------- LATE FEBRUARY 2008 and Anjeru @ the FL STATEWIDE MEET!! Feb, 24 2008       Couple more pics from the statewide meet that others took.    --------------------------------------------------------- June 30, 2008 Calipers Painted and custom decal's added this week. - G2 Caliper paint - Chrome decals by GrafiXpressions onto the pics! Before  After     In Process  --------------------------------------------------- JULY 15th LED's and Courtesy lights added! I used like 6" white neons under the dash for ambient lighting. One on each side. Then I used a couple RED LED strips for the dash and a couple single LED's for the cup holders. I want to add an LED strip in the cups of the door handle too. I ran the wiring for them up to the console, but not into the door yet. I figured I'd wait till I do my Component speakers before I run the wires since it's a PITA. White balance is a little off on the camera or something for the dome light. It's just white LED in the dome. Looks green in the pic for some reason. O_O!!  Picture with JUST dome lights  Picture with DOME and COURTESY  Picture with ALL 3. Dome, Courtesy, and RED console lights   Pass side POV  a lil closer  Pic of where I mounted the switches  Now the details on wiring. So it took me forever to figure it out b/c I'm not a wiring GURU. I wanted them to work EXACTLY as the dome lights do, but I also wanted independent control over them, so after figuring out I need a 6 prong switch that has TWO on positions, and center is off. Leave it in #1 on position and it acts with the dome lights, leave it in center and it's always off, leave it in #2 on position and I can turn them on anytime. Plus on top of that, I have the RED and WHITE lights separated by the switches, so I also have independent control between the colors.  Last edited by maiku; 07-25-2008 at 12:24 AM. |
