and now I want to ditch all my plans for a reasonable family car project, and get a tiny black EG civic.

Kinja'd!!!

is it wrong to build a car around a set of wheels you like?

steal a few design cues from my current EK civic, there’s a company that makes an EK styled front bumper

and EK side skirts fit with a little cutting.

Whatever inspires your build inspires your build, there are no rules for inspiration.

now just to convince the wife that another small hatchback is the perfect car. Instead of the agreed upon 4 door subaru sedan with awd and such that would be so much easier with kids.

the little civic would be cheaper... WAY cheaper :D

I normally hate painted calipers that didn’t come like that, but I like those for some reason.

Ever since I saw the red Seeker EG6 in Best Motoring, I’ve had cravings for a track-oriented EG. My car group however, wants to use an EG for dragracing...damnit.

I like that bumper. The front bumper is maybe the only ugly part of my EG.

right! that MAY have been the prime decider when I bought the EK over the EG. the EG’s stock bumper is too round and dull

Keep your current civic and have a his and hers civic, one white and one black.

sure, they START that way :P

ok, fine. I have in the past had multiple cars, usually a civic and an impreza. but I found myself unable to stop modding both, or to pick which to mod. So I am intentionally limiting myself to 1 car.
