Virgin Civic owner

I had a Toyota Corolla that never gave me one problem for 4 years. Then I got hit by a bus (I think the profile thumbnails this isn't working, so I'll try it in here). So now I'm in a new 2004 Honda Civic Coupe EX and I love it so far.

I'm here to check out what others have done to their rides and get some thoughts about what I can do with mine. I'm not into HUGE fins and a lot of flare, but I'd like to know my options for some subtle mods I can do.

So I guess I'll be poking in and looking at all your cars and asking how some of you did it.

Here's what's left of the Corolla and my new Civic.

Tell me about it. I went to leave the office the other day and started walking towards my new "uniquely colored" car before I realized it was a Nissan. And there's a VW Jetta of the exact same color in the same parking lot. We all bought our new cars this month. Go figure.

So far, I'm looking at doing a "flip-flop" trunk lid after I put on the spoiler, and I've just realized that getting hit by a bus did that for my Corolla for free. =)

Anyway, thanks for the welcome. I dig your wheels. I'll have that on my list of things to upgrade down the road.

One dealer tried to force me into a silver LX for more than I paid for this one. I left shortly after and went to a better dealer. I love this color.

Congrats! The civic is a great car, looks good and gets good gas mileage (which is more important than speed with these gas prices!!) LOL.

Glad your alright on your other wreck! Is that a case of Budlight in the trunk? Haha

Welcome to the site. You'll find that the Civic is sportier than the Corolla. Hope you have a great time here!

I know it looks like a lot of crap in there, but all I had in there was a shirt (you never know), new hubcaps (now sold on ebay), and new floormats (that I still have).

Why does this icon look so dirty?

I love that color! And definitely my choice if I was going to get the EX. You may see other cars with the same color but at least they aren't Civic. Be thankful for you dont have the worlds most common honda civic color--silver

Five Civics where I work has the same color as mine. Never mind all other models and makes that are silver.

Welcome to the board, I'm new to this site myself.

Also, we're glad you were able to walk away from that accident.
