Re: 97 EK Civic Sedan [Kendall]

Any further plans for it?
IMO a civic type R front lip and grill along with colour coded front bumper mouldings would finish it off.
Good work

I hope you will get a new colour... this colour does not suit what you've done to it

Any idea what kit? Hit up MarkE on here when you're ready for one. His C-West & SSP style kit suits the EK sedans nicely

Re: 97 EK Civic Sedan [Kendall]

Yea, CWest or BYS would be nice... but don't know of that would suit the overall style it appears he has in mind for the car. I think Feels/Blackwidow/BuddyClub would be more his bag?

Re: 97 EK Civic Sedan [Kendall]

A nice, hugemongous buddyclub kit would suit it nice i reckan!

dont forget to get the arctic blue bright as fuck lenses with the angel eyes.

and when uphosltering the interior, use a can of spraypaint on the dash board on all inserts, white looks M4D as apparently. Disruptiv had a similar build to you, he did a just dandy job aye

how much was the xplod setup? shit it must PUMP! ive heard the red ones have like 2000 watts?

Re: 97 EK Civic Sedan [Kendall]

Man the world would be boring if everyone modified cars in exactly the same way!
Keep building it how YOU want to and it'll be sweet. I would recommend an engine conversion instead of mods though. I've always loved the idea of H22a powered EK sedans. I love the shape of the EK sedans but the d series motor is just sooo gutless.

Re: 97 EK Civic Sedan [Kendall]

Looks like you have a nice tidy base to work with. The bonnet looks good but why the wing if its not a performance car (and that wing is ugly anyway) and why the 2 twin exhausts? They wont do anything to help the cars perfomance as im guessing you have just had an extra pipe welded into the existing exhaust and they look like arse. I nice carbon fibre cannon style muffler would look alot nicer on it and would match your bonnet and seams like it would be the kind of thing you are into.
Good for going with your own style though. I suppose if you like it and are happy with it then thats all that matters.

Hah nicely done


Twin mufflers look a little odd, thought about ditching the mud flaps?

I think Alfred at speedfactory might have some kits for you or MarkE at slipstream

Saw this tonight too, looks nice in person.

I reckon standard tail lights, and change the front grill. The silver surrounding just looks a bit odd, and a front lip!

Re: 97 EK Civic Sedan [Kendall]

Yea, a CTR style grille and standard taillights would make a world of difference. Even switching to carbon-backed clear taillights, as the silver backing on the dark paint makes too much of a contrast. Dark backing on dark paint would be much tidier.

Run it how u want. We all must be original! Not everyone has the budget or weird imagination that some people do! Go you for style. 10 points out of a possible 12.5
