Comments
that little red line going through the moldings are what really brings this ride out.
it looks hot.
good call on going turbo.
how was the install for the EF9 front bumper?
I hear it doenst match up?
One question though...
WHERE THE HECK DID YOU FIND ALL THAT JDM STUFF?
I keep a lot of the things you see on the car in stock such as the J's Racing replica front lips, Civic hatchback & Sedan JDM Front Ends, as well as Racing Seats, Rims, NRG Quick Releases, Steering Wheels, etc. I originally wanted to install a complete SiR Front End on the car but due to the differences in hood size, etc I didnt think it was worth the hassle so I just had the fenders customized to fit the 1pc headlights & the hood had to be trimmed quite a bit as well.
Also, for those of you who dont feel like spending hours customizing brackets to fit aftermarket racing seats, etc into your wagon, then hit me up as I sell custom seat brackets for around $150/pair shipped to anywhere in lower 48 states. I'm getting some custom brackets made for my wagon to install a pair of NRG Black/Red Stitch Type R style Racing Seats so once those are made I can get a set for anyone with a wagon, even the older bodystyle wagons.
If you have questions feel free to PM me or email me at: RANDY@JDMCARBOY.COM
If you have custom parts for the wagon, you can post it up in the vendor section. In fact PM me your number so we can talk.
If anyone is local in socal i'll be showing it at the Extreme Autofest Car Show this Sunday in Pomona October 22nd.
My name's Randy so if anyone stops by feel free to say whats up.
thats a 3 inch DP in the photos but im having a 2 1/2 DP made cuz im not going for super huge numbers i like this mani cuz its simple, guarenteed, lets me keep AC and PS, and the guy who builds them is a friend of a friend so that makes me feel good about buying his stuff.
sorry i rambled on a lot there dope wagon i love it how much do a set of those headlgihts run and what kind of mods do u have to do to make them fit? [/url]
I'm basically offering this as a service & am not trying to make money on the hoods. I really just wanted to get a hood for my own wagon so hopefully other members will hit me up on this.
Turnaround time would be about 1-2 months once all the payments are received.
I added a Yakima Roof Rack w/ Bike Rack & my old Surfboard to the mix
you should put an old skool bmx freestyle bike up there. 8) 8)
Sweet, Im gonna grab one !!
Big props. I'll be hittin you up for a lip fa sho.
Reguardless, your car looks badass! Nice work man. Im bummed you beat me to it, but now I can hit ya up and ask questions when Im ready to do mine. I have the entire frontend sitting in my garage minus the sedan lights, just no time to do it.
As far as the front end goes, I just used the Front Bumper as the 88-91 Civic 3dr HB JDM SiR Front End wont just bolt up due to the differences in hood & fenders. I was very please with the finished result, I just need to get the filler piece piece redone so that it sits more flush.
lmk bout the parts offerings on the board so we can set this up before the winter is over
Could you please tell me, this is for front seat belts? Or is it "strut bar"? It looks like good and usefull
And also, what is the brand of it?
Thank you.
