EX Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got my EX coupe last year this month, so I decided to thoroughly clean it and takes some pics. I also paid it off yesterday so it's all mine now!







Haven't really had any wear and tear issues over the last year. I usually drive my 98' audi a4 on the weekends so I only put about 7k miles on the civic basically just going to work and back.

Just wanted to celebrate, post what you guys thought about your car a year after purchase.

I never liked the way the stock rims looked on the RR... Looks too much of a peppermint, but the color of the car is hot.

I used precut overlays for the tail lights.

As for the wheels for some reason they look very white in the pics but in real life they look much more silver. I actually like the EX wheels better than the Si wheels, other than the fact that they're smaller.

Congrats on the birthday and finishing the payments.

Wait, is it the day your car was made or the day you got it?

Looks very good and clean. I'm happy for you on the payment thing.

I've had my 07 Si coupe for 15 months now and i've got 9K miles on it. It's past it's B-Day and I didn't throw it a B-Day party,....I suck.

I wish sometimes that I had gotten RR.

yes theres a point, ITS A CELEBRATION!

Anyways I thought about buying one of those drop in filters but I researched it and those let in quite a bit more dirt and whatnot into the engine. Not a ton but since theres only slight performance enhancement I decided to stay with the stock filter.

No sound system, its an EX so its decently equipped I did a little to the interior but thats about it everything else is in the pics above.
