SlowCivicEx: Simple, Clean & Ready to Race... 9-10-12

2005 SSM TSX MT/Navi

Simple, Clean & ready to race!!

I bought her in March of 2009 after my EK got stolen and striped. I wanted to keep her stock with just a few mods! After I started to mod her, I wanted to go faster and look cleaner.

I am making this thread with 3 years into it and going to lay it out as the parts were bought. I will start updating this as I do stuff to the car and keep her update.

Please fill free to add your comments!

Thanks.

Jay you know I love your car, every aspect of it. Its clean, modded nicely (not done over the top) and it has the right blend of function and form

.
