Kind of funny you should ask. Fitting, being I've only posted body modifications on this site so far. This wagon is a 1993 Honda Civic CX. I bought it for $1000 in 2000 because every panel was jacked up, including the roof. I learned bodywork from an Italian guy in a parking lot. I used this car as a testbed to learn more. My first full custom body, completed in 2003. It was my daily driver for 1 year, and will be again when the new motor is dropped.









VIS hood scoop turned McLaren F1-simulated roof scoop. 2/3 of the roof had to be covered in filler in order to taper at a gradual rate from the scoop. I wanted it to look OEM. No it is not functional. I thought about putting a slide vent inside, a la rally style...but did not want to combat the issue of rain.



Feel's replica widebody kit. This kit was designed for the EK 96-00 bodystyle, and converted to EG 92-95 back in '99 when fitment was ESPECIALLY bad. I had to widen the rear quarterpanel pieces an extra 2 inches to get the desired look, as the kit came only 1 inch wide.

Look tuff man, was it hard to get that PPW color down. In other words did they have to repaint the whole car. Otherwise they did pretty good on the QX1
