ADExternal's PMM Civic aka Orianna

Kinda sad but heres the update on the mirror, looks like I have to buy another mirror to fit the driver side hybrid housing to get my view back since cutting the mirror and sizing the mirror backing prove to be labor intensive. For the passenger if I want to view any further out ill get one in the future but for now. its where I usually have it.

With that said, heres another pic from yesterday.

Thank you for being a trail blazer ADEx.

Yea... always hard to be the first to do mods, never know whats gonna happen. I thought that the mirror were different part number due to heat mirrors from the hybrid. But that proved me wrong

No problems, I also have more mods to come and soon in the near future. Waiting for more parts.

True. If I don't end up doing the hybrid mirrors, I want to do fender directionals.

They look great on the car being smoked out. Props on trying to make this happen

Thanks Webby, Im still a bit sad that I had to spend another 45$ after I thought the project was done.

On other news, hfp sides come in this week, and match paint splash guards to follow. I know its a little cliche to have the vtec logo on the side skirts but I wanted to know whats everyone opinion on that as the R18 does have low RPM interval vtec (of course not the same as K24 vtec) or should I leave it blacnk or even maybe a custom logo lmao?

Personally, I would not put the stickers on. Your ride is 100% clean and classy. Stickers will change the vibe. Just my opinion though. I have to admit that the idea occasionally crosses my mind. IF, I were to do it I would cut off the SOHC part and just keep the I-VTEC part. Just my 2 cents.

I do like the made in Japan sticker, but I think the vtec on an r18 would look a little ricey

 

[FB2Chris]

i-VTEC sticker minus the SOHC and that's it. Mine was put on before I bought the car.

So sad... looks like some of the projects are gonna have to wait.

What happened?

 

[ADExternal]

one of my folks wanted to use the garage to cook outside and backed my car out of the garage and turned to early. From what I see, it rubbed against the garage door/brick leaving scratch marks.

 

[323]

That really sucks...sorry man

Check eBay, you may come across a used PMM coupe front bumper cover in good condition. I have seen them on there before. There's also a company on eBay that sells new bumper covers for the 2012 Civic and even paints them to match.

If you could paint the lip and make it look that good, I'm sure you could patch up the bumper nicely
