Re: How does it look?
It's all done in plasti dip so if I decide later I don't like I just peel it off. But I couldn't decide what to do with it. The rims are torn up though so they have to stay dipped. I messed up really badly the first time around and ended up stripping the paint and the enamel off the rims, so I took them down to bare metal.

can you do the mirrors and take off the gas door black. if you do the spoiler you should do the trunk and hood. find a line on the car and us that as your cut off.

yeah agree, gas filler and spoiler are off the harmony.

I will be perfectly honest with you...I have no idea why. I just kinda did it and left it. I ditched the black arches. It started to pull and I honestly didn't like it. I'm I'm the process of stripping the spoiler to redo it, but I went way to thin so it is a slow and annoying process. I'm about to just use a whole can on it so it's thick enough to just peel off nicely. I'm leaving the underskirt, which I know you can't really see, black and the rims and I am going to redo the badges on the back, but I think I'll just leave the paint after that. I like to be able to detail the car without worrying about screwing something up. And I'm starting to think it is already a great looking car. Though I will be adding a skirt kit eventually. http://www.kaminari.com/honda-civic-full-lip-kit-2004 I think this one adds a little beef without being ridiculous.

Yea man, tinted windows look great with the Magnesium color. Mine are only 50% side/35% rear (VA legal limit) but it looks nice without being too dark. If legal smoking the front lights also adds a nice touch. Our color looks great clean, but yea it does need a little more low. Just did KY/GC last weekend, it's totally worth it!

The kit looks good; it's different without being too elaborate. But yea, that pic is too dark for my taste as far as tinting headlights is concerned. But I did find this pic a while back of what I like with headlights. This one is possibly my favorite em2 thus far...
