Saw your car today roaring the streets of SZABIST searching for a parking....

That's the time it roars the most since I'm late for class almost everyday, haha

Plus, the car only likes certain parking spaces there, it's too low for the rest, scrapes

sir rohaansaeed question regarding the coilovers you used I know they came from eg but will the rear coilovers for eg work with the sx8?

Have been silently seeing your threads from alot of time. Good work indeed. One suggestion remove the flaps other than that Its good MashALLAH.

I don't think the rear one's will work due to differences in the bottom mounts.
However, you can opt for the trial and error strategy

I removed the mudflaps on request of some members and the car seemed incomplete without them. I've observed how lowered Civics tend to look fine without the mudflaps but they give shape to the City for some reason

Thoroughly enjoyed the work that you've put into the car - great job! I've recently become an SX8 owner myself and I'm realizing how difficult it is to find upgrades for this car. Especially if you're looking for JDM stuff since the model is specific to Asia.

I was able to find a very nice and clean ride and going very minimalistic on it - but I'm really looking for some improvement in the interior. This car seriously lacks a good arm rest/console which comes stock with the civic. And also looking for a cup holder. Have you had any luck finding something similar yet? I'm willing to experiment and go the trial and error route if required. Let me know if you can help source something that can possibly work.

Other than that, would like to have a look at your ride in person some day. I live near by - on S. Faisal.

Cheers.
