EK4 Build Thread x Deluxe Club

[DeluxeClub]

Hi everyone This is my little build thread I am making just for my own personal reference and anyone who is interested. I have a 1997 EK4 UKDM. Currently the car is being stored in my garage as I wait for the V5 to come through from the DVLA, I had to apply with a V62 as the car came with no V5. Hope everyone enjoys my thread.

I've literally only just got into Hondas so I didn't even think about it haha. Do you have a link to a thread showing the differences between pre and post facelift ?

 

[King Sir]

Thats the difference i think preface is way nicer but depends on your preference

At the time of the message I was wanting to do the facelift, but im totally undecided. I think I should keep it true to what it is, a 1997 pre facelift ? Confusing times!

97 is pre facelift.

 

[lyle robb]

Personally I'd keep it preface, always been my preference

 

[DeluxeClub]

97 is pre facelift.

I know ? That's my point I'm saying I don't know if I should do the facelift to the car or keep it pre as it's not staying true to what it is, a 97 preface lift.

So decided to keep it pre-facelift. Got two wings today, bonnet and steel wheels to get it through the MOT.

Not posted for awhile!, as you can see the reason being is i've not had any time to do anything to the car. However, it does now have a new home
