There is an article in the latest HCI magazine on a widebody kit for an 01+ coupe, maybe you should check that out.

The wings west version of a wide body is crap. all that is extra on top of the kit is the fender flares held on by cheap 3m double sided tape. It's all extremly hard to mold polyurethane because in winter in summer it can warp just like my side skirts so therefore it will look good at first and eventally it will look **** unless it's a complete show car and is never driven. Like go02civic said, it dosen't look right. I stuck with the wings west avenger kit and that was it.

To hold a body kit on permantley you should use the actual holes that your bumpers came with and drill holes in your kit to line up with those holes so all you have to do is mount the kit to the original stock holes and you dont have to worry about it falling off or anything. As for the side skirts there is a slim strip of metal along your wheel well you should mount the sides front and back onto that strip and mount the middle portion to the underbody of the car so that it does not flex in the wind and look like crap..

the nsx widebody kit is 1k from jtautostyle.com it is a full kit in of itself. It includes new front fenders, door panels that cover the door handles for instant shaved doors and it all comes with widebody rear fender covers. I know since I will be ordering this kit aswell as the full evo 5 kit they sell it is like the blue 2k1 civic on there site but in black. the evo 5 setup is just under 1k and if you buy both kits they will prolly give you a deal so all together it is a full body replacement from the window line down. Also jt autostyle kits damn near like oem.
