Documenting the 2008 TW FA5. (56k warning)

Hey guys, I know I haven't done much to my lovely Taffeta White Civic Si Sedan (TW FA5) yet, but I made this thread so I can continuously update this post with progress on my FA5 as time goes on. Hope you will enjoy this thread more and more in the future!

Car:
2008 Honda Civic Si Sedan

Date of Purchase: 2/16/08

Color: Taffeta White

Interior Mods:
  • Broadway 270mm wide rear view mirror
  • Squash air freshener
  • Skunk2 Weighted Shift Knob

Exterior Mods:
  • HFP front lip (just ordered)
  • Dark tint (will check on %)
  • Mugen replica visors

Performance Mods:
  • Z-Intake :)


February 16th, 2008 - First bought her from Costa Mesa Power Honda with 8 miles on the odometer.



February 17th, 2008 - Took a few pictures in the church parking lot.





February 19th, 2008 - Got my TW FA5 tinted, turned out way darker than expected because of the black interior, definitely darker than CA state laws approve of :). Spoke to Mike from Evasive, will be getting a polished Injen CAI this week

February 21st, 2008 - Woke up at 7:00 AM to snatch the deal on the HFP front lip from College Hills Honda. Spoke to Dennis from Evasive and decided to instead order the Fujita F5 SRI which I will pick up tomorrow afternoon. The weather was nice so I took the time to take off the front plate bracket and start working on cutting it up to have it flipped upside down. Got my camera and snapped some shots. Note the new tint.































March 13th, 2008 - Just received my replica Mugen visors in the mail and promptly installed them. It was sunny so I snapped a few shots.

Thanks, but the pictures would've looked a heck of a lot better had I turned the wheels a bit.
