First of all, thanks for checking out my page. This is my 1995 Civic EX (EJ1) coupe. I bought it in 97' with 40k on it. I just recently started modifying it in early 2005. Since then, it's been a gradual work in progress. Before 2005, all that was done was a set of aftermarket wheels. I'm a detail enthusiast first, so my main focus has been to simply take good care of it and make it last. It now has well over 300k on it and has been a great car. I look forward to keeping this car for many years as it has a special place in my heart.

The photo above is photoshopped for a raked suspension look. This is how I'll set up my Eibach coilovers when I get them on. I'll add fogs, re-tint the windows @ 5%, possibly swap out the headlights and eventually repaint the car jet black. That will pretty much complete the exterior. Interior makeover is also in the works. All mods aside from these will be strictly performance oriented...

A few 800 X 600 pics for your viewing pleasure... I've been into photography for almost two years now and have learned quite a bit. I've discovered that it's much more than snapping a photo with a high megapixel camera; but a well-planned, thought out approach, with knowledge of your camera's functions for proper manipulation, lighting, and lots of test photos with different exposures and settings to choose your final image from. I feel I still have so much to learn as there is so much to know in the world of photography. Currently in my arsenal are a 4MP
Fuji Finepix S5100, a 128MB XD memory card and an MX1000 tripod. I hope to upgrade to a
DSLR in the future with lighting accessories, multiple lenses and filters for a more professional attempt... :o)
