Building a Civic Hatch in 10 Minutes!

[@Ash-db1nb]

At first I was like there was barely anything done to it but that's cuz we always see big KZbinrs make expensive builds but its nice to see this kind of build for once and I really appreciated you guys opening my eyes to how the smallest things can really make a big difference with this build and thanks for the awesome content keeping going it inspired me

[@SmplBuilds]

I really appreciate you saying that and its so true! Not everyone can afford to spend thousands on their cars like these big guys on here but they also started somewhere and people seem to forget that part of the process. Appreciate the kind words brother!!

[@TylerForst]

hey boss, do you know how much you spent total on the car?

[@cheesythegamer9771]

A budget name brand turbo, some engine cleanup and restoration would be amazing! Keep up the good work man.

[@SmplBuilds]

Appreciate that! 🤝🏼

[@farmerbobbygrows3338]

Be surprised what you can do with eBay turbo if it breaks buy another 150 dollar turbo. Boostedbois built there whole channel off ebay.

[@tylerfachan8721]

Thanks so much for this video I just turned 16 and my dad bought me a 2000 dollar honda civic si hatchback and i didn't know what to do with it as in modifying it or really what to do to it to really make it "mine" . you opened my eyes and i see that i dont need to go out and buy a turbo just to make it cooler.

[@SmplBuilds]

Awesome buddy! I love to hear that. Thats exactly what i try to portray on this channel. A lot can be done to personalize a car for fun on a budget👍🏻

[@chrissimes9445]

New subscriber, and a 62 year old at that! Love the approachable builds, low budgets, creativity, and the free makeovers are sweet. And cool, cheap, fun cars that drive well (yeah, like Civics) are always fun! But in a sea of competitors, I really like your very good videography, very good editing, and roughly 10-15 minute length. Lots of car fixup vids go an hour, and I'm less likely to watch at that length. Yours are well paced, with proper use of fast forward to let folks see what happens, but not bog things down. Best of luck!

[@rhyskoschewoj9238]

Nice to see someone just enjoying working on their car, doesn't matter what you can afford just give it a go👌🏻

Great job, forever civic

[@Whyinem]

Excellent work

[@seanhaug]

Clicked on the video because the 'before' shot in the thumbnail looked exactly like my old hatch. It was a clean bone-stock black '98 DX hatch, one fairly minor scrape behind the driver door. It was before I really got into cars or realized how much I like hatches (I have a coupe now) but I always liked older Honda's and knew I wanted to do something with it. Sadly I got hit in a hit-&-run and the front end was done in. After replacing the core support, bumper/cover, both fenders, both headlights, the hood and grille and daily-ing it for about a year, it looked exactly like yours started. Primered fenders, rusted hood, black housing headlights, body gaps. Never could get the hood to line up right...Nice work though, and a very well done little video, boys. It's a productive, respectable and healthy hobby/skill/craft. Keep it up!

[@atrottycre8tiveconnections]

Well done guys! Simplicity at its best!

[@SmplBuilds]

I love how the paint job came out. I'm guessing it cost $1500 because it came with aftermarket wheels and suspension? Maybe the Civics near me are all cheap because they're rusty

Good shit, if I may ask. What's your opinion on the DYC kit, im thinking about buying one but would love an no sponsorship opinion and I mean no disrespect by that

[@SmplBuilds]

Thank you. Imo, do it. Its fun cheap and a good switch up but don't expect wrap or paint results. Its a fun temporary color change and easy to diy. I recommend donut medias videos on dipping your car they have a good review on it and also the dyc YT page 👍🏻 hope that helps

How much did the painting of the car cost. I’m thinking about buying a 92 dk hatch and wondering what the costs of painting it will br

[@SmplBuilds]

buy it! this was a more expensive job with the dip kit. it was abt $500 but tbh buy those turbo cans and get the same if not better results for $50

[@SmplBuilds]

Thinking about doing a video on DIY $50 paint job within the next few weeks!

[@kenoaf6896]

should i buy a ek with over 200,000 miles ?

[@SmplBuilds]

Yes

[@legitjay4021]

Super nice just next time recommend adding clear coat then when paint is dry buff it out for a super smooth & clean paint job

[@Mr.Wongburger]

Don't recommend adding clear coat to plasti dip. But to each their own. And buffing will probably take the plasti dip off as well. If this were a regular automotive paint job though, I agree. 👍
