Default Type X's Box...........

Ok I'm bored at work.... So i'll run through the history of my Box

Sold my Supercharged 06 Civic Si in Summer of 07, and decided to save $$ by picking up the box....
but didn't really WANT to drive stock so i figured i'd put some cheap mods on it so i would at least want to drive it

First Phase was the 502's, drop & painted my tails.... nothing else major except a headunit & had bought some Carbon flares...which i resold... decided it was a tad "over the top" for what i was going for lol
The plan was to get the rims painted or chromed but once i had some rubbing issues, i decided to just go back to the hubbies and that as that!






After driving around with the hubbies for about 6months i was like ... f it , i'll just get some 15x8's with the 15 offset after reading more and more of BBsquad, clubxb & here....Also picked up some visors, oem fogs, Open deck grill & Inno Roofrack etc etc





Then.... I was trying to go for a lil bit of a "dif look" for 09

And this is where we are now (PROPER SHOOT COMING THIS WEEKEND)

Interior & ICE -

Clazzio Seatcovers (Suede & Black)
Junction Produce NeckPads
TRD ShiftKnob
Grey/Black Leather Wrapped Optional Steeringwheel
Kicker Tweeters/Amp/Sub
JVC Headunit w/ Iphone Connection
OEM Floormats (they suck)
JDM BB Illumintated Center Console (Upper & Lower)
OEM armrest
MIO KNIGHT RIDER GPS (with Mr Feeney/KITT voice!!) lol

Exterior -

Oem Spoiler
LED/Smokes Sonar Tails
Oznium LED TBL
JDM Style Visors
Open Deck Grill
OEM Fogs
Junction Produce Sticker

Wheels / Suspension -

Tein SS Coilovers w/ Pillow Mounts
17x8 Work Leadsleds
5mm spacers & -3 Camber from Realcamber.com


Here are some pix from a weekend meet i attended with the box (meet was 8th gen civics since i haven't seen them in a minute)










Next up for the car is to figure out the rear spacers (kind of sitting in) since i bought my wheels/coils/spacers/camber out of order and didnt really have a "plan" , an OEM exhaust tip (bought the trd muffler but decided against it & oem silver manual pedals ...and lastly finally redo some wiring to hardwire the electronics so i dont have wires hanging anywhere

Looking good, man. I would've kept the rack though. Ah well.
Chrome door handles, hatch handle and mirror covers would be sweet.

Nah, I just remember your Si. That thing was clean, but so is your xb!

Were the payments and insurance premium high on the Si? I always wanted one before I bought my ride, until I went to visit my insurance agent...

Insurance was a little more than the box

I just started saving more $ for a house, got bored of the xB so i modded it a tad
ALl the parts i have on my xB are still less than just the supercharger was on my Si hahah

So i think i'm doing ok

I think Neek from Las Vegas might run white walls with his 2gen xB on the same rims as you.
