really nice project man. I love oldschool civics and it looks like you have a decent amount of work into this one getting this swap done. It makes me feel like i can get my accord back on the road soon lol

It'll probably hold though. You'd be surprised how much even a small tack could hold.

Great project.One of those was my first ride back when i got my licence.I think your mounts will be fine the stock ones are paper thin and tacked on anyways.Hockey pucks are great for body lifts on trucks or use as mount fillers
