Body kit...? Lip kit...?
Body kit...? Lip kit...?
So i went onto Procivic and CarID to look at some Lip kits, I saw some, but most of em said they were for everything but my year vehicle.. I drive an 05 civic ex.. Are they all compatable still? Or no..
I dont want anything extreme at all, I dont want a body kit, just wanna add a lil something unique to my ride, thats it.. And a lip kit clearly does that.. So im trying to decide how I can find a nice lip kit (front lip, side skirts, rear lip) for my car..
Any suggestions??
Also, If im not trying to race my car or anything, And i just wanna change my stock exhaust do i need to get a cat back? or does the tip alone add the sound and the look.. I just wanna get rid of my old stock lame exhaust..
thanks!

hey lowlife...
I like both of those man, but what about the rear? I couldnt find anything that i liked really.. ANd how hard is it too install a body kit, or can most body shops do it at a price that isnt ridiculous?

I don't think it's too hard to install a body kit. I had to remove the whole front bumper just to replace the front emblem. Took me about an hour since I didn't have any instructions on how to do it. It was held by a couple of clips and screws.

yeah there really aren't alot of rear lips to choose from i would either go OEM or tsunami http://www.tsunami1.com/index1.htm

Yup, there aren't nearly as many rear lip options.
Lip kits aren't hard to install, it's painting them thats a bit tricky. If you do DIY paint it definitely get custom mix body shop spray cans, the cheapo rattle cans won't match and the paint won't last.
