So the story of this black thing goes;

I got the car not long ago on March 16th 2008. Picked it up from Honda World OC.
My original intentions for this car was just to drive it to work and school until i get either and NSX or S2000. The car was originally set-up as a lease but i have decided to purchase the car.
I am a highschool student who doesnt make bank and doesnt get money from his parents. Mods come in slowly and in small portions but I think I've done alright in the time that i've had the car. The[x]'s are what I have and the [_] is what I plan on getting.

My car is an r18 LX. it will never be fast. the point of my Civic is to save gas and daily drive. The fast car will either be an NSX or an s2000, but we will see.

the exhaust will be purely for looks.
