Right, posted a few pics elsewhere on the site but wanted to start my own thread to get comments and ideas from you all.

Got the car about 7 months ago and done mostly cosmetic work on it so far. Struggling to justify spending money on performance mods with a 5 door 1.6.. Opinions/options?

So far have done the following:

Interior:

LED footwell lights
LEDs in map lights/interior light
Kenwood KDC-BT8044U
JL Audio Sound System and 12" Sub


Exterior:

Window tints (Light & Dark smoke)
Debadged
Changed all bulbs (inc clear indicators)
Type R replica spoiler

Future:

New alloys (17")
Lowering
Under bonnet - induction, manifold
Exhaust system

Some pics of her so far:

Wow thats not what I was expecting, it actually looks very nice. Probably the nicest 5dr ive seen. My mates got one, I LOVE the speedo dials their soo cool. If he lets me im going check the plugs to see if they can be put in the EP.
If you dont mind do you think you could pop off the speedo surround and take a quick pic of the two plugs that go into the dials?

Lovely EU8, Mate. The CTR spoiler looks totally unique and quite menacing in NHB. :)

Thanks for the comments guys- wasnt sure how a 5 door would go down! :)

Slick Rick - Sure thing.. had them off yesterday actually so will go again tomw. I agree about the Speedo - love the way it looks!

flyinsolo - Got the spoiler from Carlton Autos in Yorkshire. Good place, and all custom made. Reckon they are the only place who do them! £50 it cost. Looks good tho and makes such a difference so i recommend :)

Lovely Lovely :) That Type-R Spoiler looks _very_ nice.
Looking good in black, makes me wish I had a black one myself.
Curious to see pics of the car when its lowered on 17"'s :)
What is that thingy over your stereo ?
Nice to see more EU's in here :)

You may well have started a trend here, Mate. I'll never look at another EU in the same way again. What kind of alloys have you went for as with the NHB paintwork it'll look lush and very practical. Again, :)

Quick update on changes made over the last few weeks.. pics to follow shortly.

First, iv fitted a HID kit (4300k). Very pleased with the results and highly recommend to anyone! i used accessory zone, and although i got a faulty ballast initially, they were quick to send a replacement so would happily go there again.

Second- i removed all the centre console and decided to carbon fibre wrap it. Looks stunning, and so much smoother to look at than before.

While the dash was in pieces i also changed the bulbs behind the heating/ac controls to blue leds. Looks stunning at night and matched headunit.

Had some carbon wrap left over so also did the door handle housing.

Oh, and added a couple of stickers on the rear :lol:

Will get some photos up when i get a chance!

I really like this car! Only thing its missing is a sportier front lip. From the front your car looks very standard. But from every other angle is looks awesome.

I like the black and chrome/silver look youve got going at the moment http://epcivic.com/f...tyle_emoticons/default/smile.gif
