Just finished putting my OEM kit on **PICS**
I added some pics of it after I washed it today.
Heres some pics of my car with my OEM kit. It was real easy to put on and fits perfect.
Some of the pics have my Kaminari wing on the car. I'm going to try to get it painted this week.

That is soooo sweet looking.

VERY NICE!!! But, here's one vote to leave the wing off. Really lifts the ***-end of the car up which is not as attractive IMHO. Of course, I am an old bastard, so what do I know?

That color is very similar to my old car... I really loved that color. How do you like that gold?

Voiceofid I'm going to try to have the wing done by this weekend but my paint man has been so busy that he hasnt had time.
StLVtec I worked on it for about 2 hrs. I got the instuction from Honda. Real easy to put on and I did it alone.
TOOLOWCIVIC I have 2" progress springs
CivicPunker17 I have not installed the wing yet. It will cover the factory holes but I dont know if it will use them to mount.

Greg-your car looks great. Now you've got me thinking about the OEM body kit. I think I'll search for a DIY.

The front has 5 bolts under the car, 2 screws in each fender well and 3m tape along the top.
The rear goes on the same. The sides have 2 things that stick with 3m tape to the car and the side skirt slides down in it
and then it has 4 bolts under the car that hold it and one screw in the fender well. It was really easy to put on.

Your car looks great, very nice taste. I like it without the wing, but I'll guess it'll look different painted. Good job, I have the oem sideskirts and I can't wait to get the front and back.

Tell you the truth the I don't think that wing will look bad on your car. I've never liked those wings but I think it'd look good on your car.

I cant decide if I'm going to keep the wing or sell it. I like it with the wing at some angles but then at some angles I dont like it.
I want a wing but this is the only one I like so I dont know what to do.

I am not a fan of wings of any kind, especially the big ones, but it doesn't look bad dude. I think the OEM kit looks really nice. I might get that for my car someday. (wishful thinking)

I think the OEM kit is the best one out now simply because it's the only one that's not overdone. Very nice, very good taste. Just my $0.02

looks good but honestly I think you should go with the factory wing or no wing at all. Something looks similar here

Greg.......Did you ask the dealer how much they would charge to install?
My dealer told me $1500. Kit and install...... Does that sound right? Or do I have sucker written all over me? (I havn't gotten it yet)
