I have not been on this forum in a while. I am from Cape Town,South Africa and I would like to show you guys my Ferio

Back then, all I had was the stock rims with a N-Force 40mm drop, B18B4 motor, 50-57mm 1-Box SS exhaust and a Mugen lip.

The time came for me to get the wheels, a set of Rota Slipstreams

At the track day with a few friends

Noticed the car was still high as a kite with the 40mm drop so i bought a set of sleeveovers from my brother. And got a few other Spoon goodies. So I decided to theme my car around the 2000 Spoon Civic
( because they never built a Ferio)

With my brother's B16B powered EG

And then the time came when we want more power. I always knew i would go Frankenstein. But because of Initial D I wanted the sound of Takumi's AE86. So i went with a B18 LsVtec with Toda 43mm ITB
And the end result.......

With 10cm trumpets

But then decided to go with shorter ones

Most EK Ferios and Civic hatchbacks, in Cape Town, has a drop, spoon reps and a lip. So I wanted to be different and started browsing the net for small things to do, to make it look different.
In order for me to do this, I had to get the following: Spoon lip, 195/55/15 Yokis, "special" paint, make a stencil and insulation tape. With the help of my brother ( thank you very much, for the millionth time) we achieved this:
Spoon lip

Still dirty

After a decent wash

The paint settled in nicely

And that's the life story of my Ferio.

PS. I am not done with the look as yet, but i will keep you guys updated
 
Yeah, as said, maybe get rid of the white writing on the tyre and it'll look better :)

Could also paint the black bits on the side of the doors to make it look cleaner. It's your car though, just saying that I would've done those things if I was the owner :)

Nonetheless, it's a very good car though, welcome and enjoy :)
 
Thank you for the comments and the tips.
Regarding the stickers. As I have said before, I am going for the Spoon EK civic look and if I remove them then my ferio will look like every other 4 door ferio in South Africa and trust me there are plenty in SA. I think all the Ek4 ferios of the world, are in Cape Town, South Africa.:D
