EK Civic 1.4 Project

[Kiero]

Hi, first post.
For a bit of fun thought id get a project, wanted an ek for years.

Just bought a 1998 'S'
Matt Black
1.4 Civic EK ( not sure what number is it 4 ? )
78,000 miles
All MOT's and Service.
Stripped out interior, only seats, dash, front door cars left.
Cd Player
15" BK Racing Wheels in Fluorescent orange.
Spoiler
Full 4-2-1 De-catted exhaust with 4-5" can
Blue Trailing Arms
CRX Half Bucket Seats
Single OMP four point drivers harness
1 Spare Recaro Replica with Gloss Back, Good quality for a replica.
8000K HID's
Bag full of new Poly Bushes, Brake Pads, etc.
Full Coilover Set not sure of make.
Runs like a dream
Engine bay is really clean with a new battery and belts.
1.5 VTEC Head cover ?
3 Months Tax
3 Months MOT
Alarm/Imobiliser Aftermarket.
For 700 i think it wasnt too shabby a deal.

Got a few plans for the meantime while i wait on funds:

Spray wheels matt black
Get exhaust clamp sorted
Take bumpers and wings off, sand and spray matt black again and fix clips as quite tatty.
Get tow hook
Lower it some more
Fit the Bucket seat that came with
Sand/Spray Grill matt black
Paint Calipers Blue
Buy Anodized Blue Bolts
Blue Tow Hook
Maybe some cheap JDM parts.

Cheers.

Thanks for the welcomes.
Iv wanted to own an ek for the last 8 years or so, never got round to it.

Ordered today:

Electric Blue caliper paint
Electric Blue Tow Hook for rear
Electric Blue Tow strap for front
( All blue to match rear trailing arms, its gonna be my colour )
Matt black paint for wheels that r on it.
Hopefully pickin up the white Enkei rims that keirGERS has for sale.

Does anyone know where i can get blue anodized wheel nuts for this shape ? Finding it murder tryin to find out which fit it.
Also looking to find out if a short shift for the ek is the same for all engines and gearboxes before i buy one as it feels like the one thats in it is from a defender !

Cheers in advance.

Just wondering where you got your brake caliper paint from
