Honest Opinion please
I like it for what you are going for. Some people don't like that, but I can deal with the bling bling. TVs in the headrest and big chrome... its straight. A lot of peeps on this site don't have that kind of taste, its not what I want to do with my Civic, but I don't think it looks bad.

I think you have a very sweet ride, nice and clean. Im just not feelin those chromy rims, i think it looks kinda funny on a vic, but thats just me tho. That CF hood is throwing me off. You have that hood which gives it a "racing" look to it, then you have the chromy's on it. Doesnt seems right. Nice TV's. thats coo.
Just my 2 cents.

Rep Power: 334 Personally because of the CF hood you wanted a race look so you should have gone with different wheels.. The hood doesnt fit your theme at all... If it was up to me.. Get rid on the wheels and get some 19" Racing Harts (any of um) and loose the wing and go with something with a sleeker look... and last but not least those tails are hideous...But hey man once again it comes down to what you like... Thats just if it was my ride...
i like what you have done so far. very clean and very nice looking.
i even like the rims BUT i just dont think that the rims go well with the look of the cf hood. like xtreme2k2 said it doesnt match with the rims
you need different rims to kinda match with the hood more racing style rims. but i like what you have done, keep it up.

Rep Power: 0 I dont see too many people with modded green civics, so I like that, but I dont like the rims, buts that just because I dont like big chrome rims unless they're on an SUV and they're 22's or bigger. And the wing is just horrible. other than that it looks good.

Actually have to agree with the majority. You have a tyte @ss ride, but it seems like you are flip-floppin. If you are going for a luxury look, get rid of at least the hood and the wing and go stock. The tails can stay because they add to the "chromey" appearance. If you are going for sport, loose the chrome and get like hyper silver 19's or something and put your stock tails on. Its a nice ride, but IMO you should just go one way with it.PS. Those LCD's in the headrest look nice. That is one of the cleanest installs ever.
1. change tails back to stock
2. lose the huge *** wing
3. get different rims that arent chrome
then youll be ok. you have way to much going on. what falken said, you have no clue in hell what youre going for do you? its like the fast and the furious meets some gay rap video.

Show that sum'bitch! Seriously, you're well on your way to having a good show car. If there's one thing I've learned from showing, this year. . . it's the flashier your car, the more attention you'll get at the shows.
To give my honest opinion, I would certainly choose one or the other, in the way of a theme. Flash like bling-bling, or flash like vroom-vroom!
In my case, I've gone with the vroom-vroom flash, with a lot of technology in the mix. (Engine swap highly likely in the spring to top it all off)
Even if all you did was to swap the wheels out for something not chrome, you'd have a great base for a vroom-vroom setup.
And I have to give you lots of credit for throwing your ride up and asking for honest opinions and constructive criticism. That's sometimes not an easy thing to do.

Rep Power: 0 First off, I Would really like to thank all of you for the opinions. I do appreciate it. I have only had the car for 6 months and I am new to the board. The Civic is brand new so I don't want to touch the engine really until the warranty is up. I like showing and would go every chance I could get. I see the same stuff out there, Racing or showing. I wanted to combine the two and see what the outcome would be. Everyone says get rid of the rims. I am sorry, but it is easier said then done. Those rims are 18 inch Niche Orca's that costed $500 each. I am not upset, I am very thank ful that no one on here is a BS talker and lets people know the real opinion. I have much respect for you all.
Thank you very much.
After all that I am going out for a

Rep Power: 378 Car looks sweet. Would have probably looked cleaner if there was a straight theme. Would've gone for a different design for the rims in chrome. Wing doesn't seem to fit well. Hood is fine I guess.
LOL R3DL1N3 and falken take the words right out of my mouth! LOL!! Thanks R3DL1N3 and falken for keeping this site real (not ricey)

Rep Power: 0 Look, I just didn't appreciate the remark you made.
I wanted remarks from members who actually has something not someone who has a stock dropped.
