Civic Type-R Owners Club & Forum

My CTR (January 2011):


Mods:
DC Sports Catback
Tegiwa carbon induction kit
JDM Anti Roll Bar
30mm ABP Eibach springs
Eibach Camber bolts & arms - Fast road setup
Exedy Stage 1 Organic Clutch
Tints on rear 3 windows
Alpine Headunit with iPhone connection

Things I have done:
Front end respray
Painted callipers red
Wheels refurbed in 'Kia Pewter Grey v9'
Skirts resprayed

Hoping in the near future to remap with KPro/K100, New seats, DC Sports Manifold......

Here is a few pictures of when I first got her:





The first thing I had done was a front end respray due to stone chips all over the bumper, bonnet and wings

Before:



After:

Shiny, good job on the re-spray :thumbup:

Cheers! Yeah the car looks mint from the front but has made the rest look dull in comparison. Going to clay and glaze her hopefully next weekend to see if it brings the rest of the car 'back to life'

Then took the 'Civic' badge off the back and stickers off the sideskirts....

Will do matey, but if you go lighter you will defo wish you had went darker, i had the lighter tint last time on my MGZR and it was to light. Will PM you some pics of the audi in a few days as it takes a couple of days for the tint film to dry out. As when its wet it looks darker
