My first mod project.
This is my first mod project. So far, I have only done the tire mod and lowered the body. I plan on doing the duel cell mod, the muffler mod, the front springs suspension, and the LED light mod. Any other suggestions?
P.S. Too much yellow?

No way, yellow's cool! Make sure your second cell gets under the hood!
 Way to go!

I have painted a few little details like the window molding, door handles, and front and rear air dam vents. This helps hide my cut for the rear slot for the body lowering.

OK, I know I'm going overboard with the pics, so this will be last for a while. I decided that with the added detail, the car would look better with realistic tires and shiny wheels so......
I put the yellow tires on my other yellow civic and changed these...

OK, Maybe yellow tires on the shiny rims? As far as the antenna, it's either yellow or red, and I think the red would look worse.

the best antenna i have used is 22g solid core stereo wire from radioshack. i use a foot of it on all of my cars as soon as i get them now. i coil them up around a small screwdriver so the actual size from the first to last visible coils is about 1-1/2 - 2 inches. it looks pretty cool and when combined with my 3ft rabbit ear antenna on the controller i get about 40ft of range. also, the stereo wire i bought came in a big spool. i think it was about 30ft long it said. sorry, i cant find the box. the only thing you gotta do aside from soldering it into place is cutting the black away from the white wire insulation, then come doubled up against each other, but it is by no means hard in any way. hell, if you pay shipping i could do it for you. on a personal note, i use the black wire for 49mhz and white wire for 27mhz so its all good

Yeah, it is Richmond Va., more specifically, Mechanicsville. I'll be coming to Va. Beach this July 4th, maybe we could set something up for you to do some mods for me?
