Not sure what to call this, or where I should post this but this is just used as a personal note for myself Thought it might be nice to share it too
Little background info; I'm a high school student still , got this 2009 Taffeta white Honda Civic Hybrid as a gift from my parents I would of much preferred an SI, but it's a gift and not a choice so I'm happy with what I have. I doubt I can do much to the engine , so for now I'm going to focus on making it look nice first ..
Purchased August 2010 brand new from a Richmond Honda dealer;
Looks so much cleaner without the civic and hybrid emblems Pic taken on a really cold morning
LED DRL's installed, interior LED's hooked up to my low beams
[Oct 02 2010], had a hood swap with a nice guy on revscene Seibon CF hood . Pic taken on a cloudy day ): Gotta find a sunny day to take a nice pic
Some better pics
[Oct 26, 2010] My gf's Nikon cam, love the quality even though it was taken on a cloudy day ): I suck at using these cams haha
Rims~ XXR 525's 16x7 +38
Wish my license plate was actually like this :\ did a temp thing, thinking about making it permanent EDIT: Done
authentic JDM $150 pieces of red plastic.. wooo
Dec 1 Figured out that the color of my car is a tri coat so couldn't paint the spoiler myself.. brought it into a shop to get it painted and installed . Wrapped the top piece in carbon fiber myself and put 3 layers of clear , looks pretty nice
What I've done so far.. it's not much but it's slowly growing!

Quick update; got new wheels, wrapped a few pieces, and took off the chrome accents on door handles, and also replaced the decal with a red 'i' and black '-vtec sohc'
Before I wrapped my chrome grill piece in gloss black;
