  1. Voted grey, but prefer the bronze
  2. Ellipse for me too. I asked for a small ellipse tip on my eg years ago, but due to a breakdown in communication i ended up getting one like this  Ended up with big (loud) ellipse
  3. Good stuff... Looking sweet as well. Nice touch on the personalised callipers
  4. Seems to have been quite a few people had that happen over the years. That does look well and truly fooked.

    Hi, random place to ask the question chief, but for lowering your looking at springs like eibach, or coil overs like meister r. A cheaper option is mg zs suspension, which is better than the Civic and gives a bit of a drop, but there seems to have been mixed results @UnicyclingTom had good experiences and @burbleboy had a mare. There's been other examples on both sides. Can get ebay specials of course, but depends if you want to take a chance on the handling
  6. Was just looking on ignition car parts site for new dizzy cap and rotor, and noticed that they do abs sensors. They didn't pick up my reg on the search, and the mc2 isn't listed in any of the compatibility charts, but I did a search on the honda part number for a rear sensor and it took me to this page http://www.ignitioncarparts.co.uk/PartDetails.aspx?s_pc=SMP-60094&s_vid= Like i say, a couple of ms are listed (diesels) but not others, so be cautious and check before buying, but £73 for a new sensor is the best price I've seen... And I've done some looking over the years.
  7. Brand new on this page here bud: https://www.lingshondaparts.com/honda_car_parts_selection.php?block_01=17S1E01&block_02=B__4900&block_03=7745&block_05=hcr item 13 would be for the complete part - £220, but showing as unavailable. I'm sure that @10000rpm could sort you out for a used one though - he's in your sort of area too (Rochdale) he has garage services as well - not sure about doing welding and stuff, but worth asking.
  8. Congrats @Chandler. Hard lines to the others.. Was a lot of entries this month for the votes to go around. Nice to see a good amount of entries, but could do with some more voters.
  9. Sure it was this one i got... Was years ago now though. http://www.autobarn.net/piaasportshorn.html
  10. Okay chaps. Will end the vote sometime in the next 24hrs (or so) ... Leaving my options open for forgetfulness
  11. Was ages ago when i did mine... Think it was a European sports car horn or something like that. Pretty sure that I just had to snip the old one off and used crimp connectors to fit the new one. I guess that any horn would work? @philgor had a different horn as well.. He might remember more than me.
  12. Good stuff... Will put the old thinking cap on.
  13. Stumbled across this today http://www.rac.co.uk/drive/car-reviews/honda/civic/207658/
  14. Amazing! 8-) Nice way to spend a day
  15. Just thinking... Have you tried slamming the car since getting the new wheels? Think that the shiny dish makes it look like there's more arch gap than there is.. Bit of an optical illusion.
