Where to go from here?

Aight well i am sorta at a fork in the road. I have done several things to my car, and looking to do more...DAMN MOD BUG! (This is also after i swore i would not touch the car.) The list of things that i have done are below. I am thinking about doing some more showy things...or something more for my enjoyment. Dont have enough for a turbo though it would be nice. WHAT DO YALL THINK I SHOULD DO NEXT???


Things that are done:
1. Projector style heads
2. Blacked out tails
3. Short-Shifter (revo)
4. Custom Rsx 5-speed base ****
5. All stereo redone and custom
6. Cat-back exhaust
7. Aem Short-ram intake
8. "Frog" Style gauges (volt and air-fuel)
9. Shaved civic and ex
10. Tints
11. optima yellow top battery
12. painted altezza uper-grill
13. upgraded ground

I am not much on lowering the car....due to killing warrenty. Any help will be appreciated!

definitely a body kit and some new rims; whatever you like for those. Do a K20a swap for more power

cf hood, cf fenders, cf trunk, cf front and rear bumpers and cf side skirts, get the cf A, B and C pillars which are being custom made right now, go to ebay and get the cf dash kit. And don't forget the cf rear wing!

Rims arent a bad idea......right now i have the si rims (stock for the 2003 ex).

I have the bushings kit....i just forgot to list it.

How much of a difference will a sway bar or strut bars make on a car?

i am very interested in a lip kit but waiting for someone to post a lip kit on here in ssm.....then it will be mine.....the shops around here are not to reputable and i dont feel like driving to miami or lauderdale to get the stuff painted a mounted.

thanks for the imput.....i will stay away from the white neon underkit for now.

BTW....does anyone here have the door sills that light up on ebay....i know they are for a 4-door but they should fit a 2 door....without installing the rear 2...right?

sway bar makes a huge difference...front strut probably does, rear strut not so much. You can get a 19mm one off an RSX for $55, or get an aftermarket 22mm or 21mm one for a lot more.

The rear tower bar only makes a difference in very hard turns. The front bar will make more of a difference in normal driving.

mm.. you know that if you do lower your car, you will only void the suspension warranty, not the warranty on the whole car. There is a federal law concerning this. just like how you got your short shifter and voided the warranty on your shifter and any parts associated with the shifter, the same thing will happen if you get some performance modifications on your suspension. just letting you know man because i know not many people know of this law or are confused by it.
