How long have you been in the Industry?
8 years since I was 18 yrs old!

Why this car?
Well back in 2004 the 8th generation civic was just a concept. A new platform look outside the ordinary civics from previous years. So from the concept images lurking in the internet, I knew I wanted to get my hands on this generation and be one of the first in the scene.

What do you like best about have a modified car?
The built process seeing my ideas come together and best of all enjoying the drive of it! Form and function.. Daily driven!!

If you were to do it all over again what would you change if any?
I have a lot of what if I did that or this during the built BUT honestly I think am I proud of what I have accomplished with this car.

What’s next for this car?
I dunno yet I guess you guys got to stay tuned until next year.

What advice would you give to those who want to get into modifying their car?
Don’t its expensive!! lol j/k enjoy it and be proud of what you have built!

Any last words? Shout outs?
I would like to thank my master mechanic Tommy Ly who step up big in putting this car back together in my garage on time for the Toronto Honda Indy 2011. Peter and the crew at Nextmod for helping me gather all parts needed. Chris de la Cruz for these awesome VIP status wheels! Humphery Ho at Sailun Tires. And I can’t forget about StreetConcepts!!!
