Well, Provided you have the EX with the SOHC engine... I think that qualifies as rice. Just cut the decal in half and keep the VTEC part.

OMG please dont. I will hate you forever. It's jus not right. It gives us bad names and theres no point of stickers anyways. We "mod" our cars to go fast, stickers DONT make us go faster, and especially DOHC on a pissy SOHC.

I THINK A CAR looks cleamer without stickers, kind like people who act hard show it, the cars that are hard done have to show it, IMHO

if you want ppl to race and rev at you all the time, the stickers will do it. sometimes instead of reving at u, they may just point and laugh. in other words, i suggest you to not put it on.

Do it!! hell ya that is so cool putting a DOHC sticker on a SOHC engine. I wish i would have thought of it. I am going out to get a couple sets of them for my car. I might just get 2 really big ones and lay them on an angle over the trunk and the hood. then maybe a banner with one other sticker. if i do that i might get a TRD sticker for it too. Dose that sound cool?


This sounds as dumb as you are for even thinking of doing somthing like that.

Pure Riceeeeee!
IMO don't even put the VTEC part, whats the point, it doesnt mean s*it, it just makes it look like u think vtec is like "the coolest thing ever"...
so leave it, sell the sticker, sell it to a body shop who might be working on a 99, or 01 si (sir in canada) they may buy it, coz they need to replace the stickers if they have damage in that place, or just sell it to some kid for 10 bucks and be happy you only lost 5 and not 15

Hey Brents1, I have the same decals as you got. I put them on where the 99-00 civic si has them on. Personally, I like em. Couple of my friends say they dont like it and i should take them off cuz my car aint really a dohc. IMO, i dont give a hoot about what others think about my car. As long as my car makes me happy, it's all good. Who cares what others think. Put them decals on!!!
