No AC. I'm afraid that the leather would burn me alive and probably look like hell from all the heat.

Nice hatch but it looks incomplete without a honda logo in the front. Just my opinion.

Not really going for the looks, but I did contemplate about getting a grill and red "H"s what do you guys think. I was going for sleeper, but maybe I've been in R.E.M. too long.

Re: What's up? I've owned 3 Civics and I have never been here before!

A logo would be nice because a lot of people have that grill but keep it empty. I don't remember the last time I saw that grill with a logo on it. I don't know, to me it always looks like the logo fell off when I see that grill lol. But that's just me! I think I saw gearbox's car today and it has the same grill as yours, and I had no complaints.

And if you do get one, how are you going to put it on there properly? You have no spot for a logo.

I wouldn't fix it if it isn't broken. It's up to you whether you like it or not.

What are you saying, that I can stick my hand through there? Cause if that's the case, I would just put back the stock grill. I really like the stock grills on the 96-98's, but not as much on the 99-00.

Re: What's up? I've owned 3 Civics and I have never been here before!

Yeah. That's what I'm saying. There is no grill. Just a hole. Also need some ideas on what to put in front of the intercooler. No one wants to play with me after they see it. The ricers talk a lot of **** down here in GA, but they won't race me. What does that tell you?

Re: What's up? I've owned 3 Civics and I have never been here before!

I'm not too familiar with the stock grill on 96-98 eks. Slap a si on that puppy n you'll b good! Or look into something Japanese or canadian. Stock grills ivevseen have those chromish borders n they just look cheap.As for the intercooler nomesh grills!! I don't think there's anything u can put there that won't affect you negatively(inrtrcooler) oh n nice clean hatch. Kudos!!!

Re: What's up? I've owned 3 Civics and I have never been here before!

Well maybe I'll just get the grill I had on my SI and just act dumb and tell them that I have no clue what a intercooler is and tell them I think it's my radiator.

How the hell am I supposed to win gas money when no one will even race me. Oh, BTW, there always some guy saying that "his friend's" car can beat mine. How many people on these forums have heard this before?

Everything that I see in GA is rice. There are some fast cars around, but they are usually around ATL. They come up beside me at a red light and I don't even look just drive slowly hoping there is some cop up ahead so I can laugh at them.
