I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

After all this time.... Zero's build BEGINS!!!!

build threads. post pics & specs & brag about your ride.

also IMO CTR/SiR headlights would set it off in a great way.
since i found out that Milano Red is a DC2 Type R color im just gonna get it repainted and im also planning on getting the hood gloss black so when i put the Red "H" it will stand out and ill let the other "H" blend in on the trunk like the real Type R... im also getting new side sohc VTEC decals the right size tomorrow and i am planning on getting a new Civic emblem for the rear along with getting rid of the Ex on the trunk... i also just today shaved off the vtec decal that was on the trunk as well... one of the few things i want to do is get CTR headlights and side markers... so for the exterior body changes the last few things are in fact the CTR lights and markers... other then that im pretty thrilled as its comming out exactly how i was pictureing it in my head as i bought the parts... maybe if i can sell some of the extra stuff i have i can get those CTRs sooner...

looking good. love this car.
only problem with the airwalker and bys is it dont sit as low as any other lip or front bumper so u gotta really slam the front to make it look right. i think the front needs to go down a lil bit more.

my 2 cents but then again what do i know.

i wanted that bumper back in 2002 when i first got my car and saw only one car with it on the weaksauce forums...i couldnt find it for the 96-98 front and was considering buying the 99-00 and modding it to work....then about a year ago they started popping up everywhere....looks great though :up:
