nick_civic's black4g project

Post by nick_civic »

basically i bought another civic with a few probs.

no MOT being one.

fuked rear bumper

dodgy crx front bumoer

loosing brake fluid (i think its the caliper)

snapped bonnet cable

thats it really.

oh yeah and no fog lights.


The car did have good points.

NO RUST, NO SCRARCHES AND FAIRLY LOW MILEAGE 91K



so heres a pic of when i 1st got it
Image

And heres a few pics from yesterday when i was fixin it up a bit..

Image

Image

Image

It looks like theres a scratch on the door but trust theres not! its just a dodgy looking reflection!!

Image

The car came with a chrome air intake
short shifter
strut brace
polished rocker cover
performance ht leads
and a few other bits and bobs.



My mission this week is to fit a new bonnet cable.
put my 4-2-1 manifold on there
put backbox on
lower it 60mm
fit the original bumper back on wit golf lip and clear indicators

give it a clean and sort out the little things.......


then hopefully thursday it will go for the MOT!!! :)




Fingers crossed

No no no no no no no no.
It's not a corsa.
A 4guk sticker on the front lip will look good.

Get m.o.t done before you slam it.
