    Hey guys I've been on the forums for a while now, but havent had time to post my build thread. I'm only 21 and the EP3 is my second car. Let's start on how I got into the Honda Game.

    My family all had hondas already and I had picked up a few thousand from my first job bartending.

    My cousins EK with a standard B16A swap.


    Who later sold the shell and bought a first gen CRV and threw the GSR swap in it.


    Other cousins EG with a GSR/ITR tranny swap.


    Cousin's accord with an H22A2 swap


    And my brothers RSX-S with a K24A2 swap.




    And then I picked up my first hatch and threw in a B16A2 swap.


    Cleaned her up a little bit.





    But then I realized there was like 10 other blue EG hatches in the area. Had to change it up a bit.




    Sold my hatch and picked up my new baby.

    2004 NHBP with 101k miles (Highway commuter miles). Clean title but hella bad oxidation. Bought her 12/2010!




    First things first. Always lower your car first! Tanabe lowering springs and base RSX rims.



    Then I picked up a Seibon Type R rep lip kit. Then got it freshly painted NHBP.






    Went out for a spin to see if the kit would stay on. This is what I see everytime I race my cousins GSR swapped CRV.

    Got a new shift knob



    Knob wasnt straight so had to read up on it.





    Got some Stanley amber corner lights.



    Powder coated the base RSX rims white and wrapped them in some 225/50/16 Bridgestone Potenzas.




    Figured I'd do some interior work. Started peeling away the interior panels. Wanted to do a full black interior.

    Finished result.







    Then I picked me up a nice Seibon Carbon Fiber hood to replace the oxidized hood.

    It was missing a nozzle so I drove to the dealership really fast.




    And here she sits today with some car accessories and with many more modifications coming soon.

    Hope you guys like it. Feel free to comment!

    Edit: Forgot to mention I picked her up for a STEAL!
    Clean title, 2004, all stock, paid off, clean interior, 4,000$. Guy was a snobby rich guy that had like 5 other cars.

    Edit: Updated 8/1/11 : Got some CTR centercaps for the rims.

    Also waiting on package including some Ebay fogs and a Carbon Fiber Cargo cover. Maybe thinking of getting a cusco strut bar and the Corsport c pillar bar.

    I was debating on whether to do carbon fiber or just go regular. If I went carbon fiber, I was going to use the CF vinyl on the top of my car and have a CF line.
