I got a new Lip!!! For a very awesome price! The lip is a real authentic mugen style (if that makes any sense..lol)The lip company is from Seibon and the weave looks phenomenal! And the fitment is really tight and it hugs the bumper like crazy.Now I'm going to be forced to buy C-West side skirts to make it look more even.And I also got a front strut brace for like $20..but hey, it does the job.

Anyways...my new Stanley Clear CTR side markers came in today...and it makes the car look alot cleaner (yeah the orange side markers are jdm and all but, so are these..lol)And I also used orange LED's for the turn signals that way the housing stays clear until lit.

Here are the Gabs I bought off a friends they are 15x6.5 with some terrible rubber..lol.

Here's the picture of the new beefy tires.The previous were in pretty bad shape, plus they were 3 different brands of tires..lol.The old tire set-up was 195/60/15 in the front (very ugly, and too much tire) and the rear was 195/50/15 (way to small, and skinny..and a terrible brand) Now the new set-up is Nitto Neo Gen tires 205/50/15 (they are alittle bit wider, it hugs the lip to protect it from curb rash, and it just looks flat out mean.)
Without no further delay, here are the pics:

Here is how the front lip looks now..I think it looks awesome..I taped the lip up with that 3M Vinyl tape (which is good to use when doing 2-tone paint jobs or jobs like this.)..and as you can see,The line from Championship white to CF is very keen.I like this look alot better...it looks alot cleaner, but still retaining that mean look that I want.

So yeah....pretty much...I kinda went carzy..lol.I bought some CTR seats from a friend..and I'm pretty much speechless right now..lol..I traded him my s2K seats plus $350 on top.The seats look great, but there's little things I got to fix during the week.Like first, I need to repair the drivers seat seude, cause there is alittle rip on the side of the seat (along with new structure padding)...but it's not a big deal..I'll get that fixed and it will look slightly used instead of extremely used..lol.And I also got my clear foglights in today..I think it looks alot cleaner than the yellow ones for sure.
And yeah, I know.....I'll be changing the material on the rear seat,armrest, and center console this week!! ..it's gonna be in red suede...and the carpet and headliner will stay in black, for more contrast against the red.

So I just happened to have come across these type R headlights..they looked pretty sh!tty when I got them.
BEFORE:
But since I'm a sick dude, I wet sanded them with 1000,1500 than 2000.After that, I gave it a sick buff to polish it up.And it came out like this.

So I installed the headlights yesterday after I got my car back.But as soon as I installed them on the car I was pretty unhappy cause I washed my car as soon after that, the headlights started to fog up! (FUK!!!!!).So what I did was I removed the headlights,and since it was open I thought it would be alot better if I have installed the little bulb shields (Cause when I bought the headlights the guy had removed them so that the bubs would be brighter...a big no no.) So I broke my stock headlights and took the bulb shield from those and installed them on the new headlights..than after all of that, I resealed it with a ton of gray silicone so it will NEVER fog up again!
And on the car, with the bulb shields and the ton of silicone..lol.

Well I finally got my EK9 Thin side moldings on..My friend laid down the paint yesterday, and we let the paint settle over night.I installed them first thing this mourning..but wow, what a difference it made..It looks awesome!
And FINALLY, I got myself a nice HONDA steering wheel..lol.I bought it off a friend cause he installed a racing steering wheel..The steering wheel is off a Civic EP...and it fits very well...IT EVEN HAS RED STITCHING!!
