Pics Of My Body Dropped Modified Civic..

[nismodrifter]

Picz of my modified civic......model :D

Was bored as hell one day so I decided to rip apart my model Civic and modify it........

I bought the model and the white plastic under the hood and other places was so ugly so I decided to paint it. After doing that and having the car in pieces I decided that I would also chop the wheel wells and pieces of the frame to drop it even more. Unfortunately during this process I chopped the rear a little TOO much and now it tucks like crazy....I also cut too deep and ended up having a car with no rear end frame, that took quite a bit of glue to fix.

Here are the picz, taken with a camcorder so the lighting sucks...

The engine through vents:

[DUBBED]

my buddy stripped his down painted the interior baby blue and white and the body is now white.. shave the spoiler and put a apexi exhaust on it... looks bad ass!! :devil:

[sexfarker]

Dude to bad the car wasn't reall. It would be a cool little ride!

[STI-Guy]

One word...

RICE!!!

[nismodrifter]

how can it be rice........its got a b18c5 under the hood now :rofl: :D

I could make it go lower but the exhaust is hitting now, if I chop the exhuast then it could drop it a LITTLe bit more :D

[STI-Guy]

I suppose those carbon-fiber hood vents do a lot performance wise.

:rofl:
