Due to rain + Phat hangover we didnt get any work done saturday ,
So we started sunday double time

Removed all aircon and oil cooler ,

Posted Image
Posted Image

Fitted by new engine cover , YAY all shiny
Posted Image

Old strut brace is still alive , Took the full force of the impact , VERY HARD STUFF !
Posted Image

Fitted new wheels and brakes to the front
Posted Image

Got the coilovers for the front fitted.. Do the rest on Monday
Posted Image

Finaly got the sideskirts on
Posted Image

And started the long process of removing all the parts of the old chassis
Posted Image
Posted Image

Heres how it looks atm , Should hopefully be almost complete by this weekend

yeh i thought that civic looked familiar as well, as i went to poole college last year as well.

the car keeps looking better and better, really hope you get it done by the end of the month, shame about the coilover, but at least you know it means you dont need a whole new coilover. definetly looks mean with no front lights and grill.
