Re: Newbie Here..My First Import

Welcome to the site.

I can see from the pix of your truck, you will be modding you car so that it will no longer look like a civic. If that is what makes you happy, cool, but please keep it clean and tasteful. We do not need more ricers out there giving us a bad name, not calling you a ricer, just a preemptive bit of info.

actually not modding it like my truck, simple and clean no fast in the furious...no led lights, no underbody glow kit, no nos floor mats, no seat covers, no fart can exhaust, going for a tasteful european look...not an autozone special

You either scrape your frame or put some type of metal plate down there to get that effect. Different metals make different colored sparks. It's called a rooster tail.
