Hey people,

I would like to introduce to you my Honda Civic. Currently sponsored by Spectre Customs (hence the HUGE graphic down the side :P), got plenty of mods on it. Spent the best part of £12k on it! :O

These are the latest pics I have of the car, taken back in Febuary when it was looking nice. Getting a full overhall at the moment, so will be posting some new and fresher pics in the next few weeks :)

Let me know what you think!

Cheers!

You were lucky to find the fountains working - they seem to be broken more often than not!

Nicely balanced lighting but the town hall seems to steal the shots from the car. How come you were in Walthamstow?

Just looked them up . Lammas Road Leyton (not Walthamstow ;) ).

My business was only half a mile from them. Know the area well. Factory unit next door to where we were makes custom motorbikes - like the American TV show. Must be a popular area for customisers :)

Nice shots PooM, I'm sure I recognise your username and motor car from Civic/Honda forums here and there. Whats happening during the overhaul? Any major changes?
