Great looking Civic! Paintwork and detail are fantastic! Really like the highlighted panel lines you did. Nice job.

Thanks man!!! The panel lines are what make or break a build in my opinion

Very nice.  Good work on the interior.

Thanks man!  This kit has no interior detail hardly at all so it needed help

Very nice.  Wouldn't mind doing one factory stock.  How did you do the lights? 

Thank you!  I used a red sharpie and put bmf on the tail light bucket of the body. Works great. I’ve been doing this now for the past year or so on my builds and it looks so convincing

So your head and tail  lights aren't lit?

Oh sorry I misread your comment, lol. They are lit, I used Micro LED lights in red for the rear, cool white for the headlights, and orange for the park lights.  The hue on the camera made the head lights look yellowish for some reason, when they're actually a pure white.

I see.  Where is the switch and battery pack?

The battery pack is inside of the body, in what should be an engine bay, lol.  I  had to cut a little of the interior tub to fit the battery pack in far enough to clear everything but the dash hid the pack.

If you look right in front of the exhaust pipe on the picture of the underbody, you can see the switch where I had to cut a small slot to access it.
