Hey everyone, this is my bone stock 2005 civic ex I've recently purchased a couple months ago. I installed some coilovers and dropped it a few inches, thats as much as I got done at the moment.

As of right now the plans for this car I will be focusing on cosmetics such as the hood, wheels and paint job and other little things around the car. I plan on getting a body kit for it but haven't decided on it.

As far as performance right now, I plan on getting a cold air intake for it. Once I work out the cosmetic issues I will start performance upgrades.

Hey y'all! Here's my 2021 Corolla Hatchback and a brief (ish) summary of what's been done and where it's headed. I bought the car a year and a half ago roughly and I've been slowly and steadily building it to my liking.

The exterior looks fairly OEM+ right now with tint, a mild drop on RS-R coils and Tein struts, a Blitz (rep) wing, Kill All Wipers rear wiper delete, and custom cut rear plastics for my exhaust. Recently my son and I applied sticker bomb vinyl to one front fender and of course it's wearing a club banner.

Interior is stock save for a Delta X throttle pedal spacer and some work on the shifter including a Grimmspeed stubby weighted shift knob and shifter bushings from Monkeywrench Racing. I have plans for the interior

but it's going to come last on my list most likely.

Just left my baby at the shop (I work there) so I can start pulling motor for upgrades, reseal and maintenance like timing, rings, gaskets, etc.

friend of mine is gonna tow the body to his house so we can wrap it and install all the new exterior too while motor is out. Then gut the inside and upgrade interior too.

Hate seeing him not in his spot at home. But can’t wait for spring when I start him up again and get a new tune. 🖤 I’ll make sure to post progress photos. But I may be a ghost for a bit with late night build sessions lol.

The day I got it, vs. about 2 months ago. 1.5 years of time and dedication has made the car virtually unrecognizable from where it was when I got it 👍 need updated pictures cuz even more has been done since this photo, but thats a surprise for later
