I kind off the see the car as fashion meets function although i am trying to make it more of a driving car from now on.
 
nice looking coupe, love those wheels. your front lip must get caught on everything. my car isn't as low as that and i've bother getting about!
 
miht have forgot about thiss threa.. oops..

Thanks for all the comments and @jimbo got the Grille from America, hard enough to find but i will get you the details of where i got mine.

Was think of selling the car for a bmw but i stopped taking the shrooms and caught myself on. Sso instead im making this car better.

Starting with the interior. They come standard with the horrible grey dash etc which is always something that bothered me so the interior plans are (all ordered just waiting for it to arrive

EK9 black dash
Civic jordan door cards with yellow piping and fabric done in red alcantara
civic jordan centre console with armrest lid done in red alcantara
Red dc2 recaros
Rear dc2 seats
Black plastics
Dark grey upper trims
New black Carpet
Ek9 gaitor
New gearknob
EK9 steering wheel

As said ive sourced everything just need to wait on it all coming, also going to tape down any wires brackets etc to top rattling and have been adding small amounts of sound deadening to the bare panels.

Currently driving the car like this so cant wait to get some interior back

After interior is done il move on to the outside
 
love this car mate!!

great to see more usdm styled ek hatches/coupes about!! :)
 
the coupe looks very well, imo i think the car would look far better with out the oem spoiler but it still looks well :nice:
 
Thanks guys.. Have tried it without the spoiler and dont really like it.. might go for an Si coupe spoiler though
 
Hi AndyG

I too am a coupe fan, rock'n project you have there buddy, Thank you for sharing. Love the front grill mono tone; cherry touch on your coupe, really sets it apart for me. Like also that you picked what I think the better looking grill as well. [my laser/radar pickup sits in between the opening in the grill, would not work using the SI/Type-R mesh style grill-lol]

ANYWHO, check out this rear wing if you have not already, thoughts?
