Thanks, the rims are being powder coated & I have a buddy club short shift kit ready to be installed.

I'm gonna try to install FKX front & rear lower tie bar later this week

As for lowering springs, im still shopping for it...

Congratulations on picking up a beautiful Bellanova White and welcome to the family. LOVE the floor mats. Reminds me of the design of the 1999 NSX Zanardi mats with the black carpet with red border & stitching. Keep us posted on your progress.

I like the look of the black rims. Solid.

How is the handling/ride quality after the H&R springs install?

Tie bars look good. Did you leave the plastic under tray off in the rear? I did.


Also glad to see a real BBK hit the car. Already one upping all the TL guys with their caliper covers. Props to not fakin the funk!

thanks, i wil try to install it after thanksgiving

i might need to change the tires to 225/45-17 pzero's before the brake install, the stock tires just aren't that good.

Definitely agree. Suspension is always first on my list. I haven't dropped a decent amount on her since so wheels and tires will be done ASAP. BBK is in my future but Im not too worried right now.

I enjoy your build. Best moving ILX build so far. You passed my not so quick 2.0tech build. Slow it down so I can catch up!

this is not a "bbk" it's a caliper upgrade kit.

this is a bolt on kit for 2012+ civic si.

you can buy it at 9thgencivic.com's group buy page.
