Drop first, then wheels, then bodykit, motor mods, then finish off with the interior and ICE.

nobody on this site likes chrome rims, except me and u sadboy. Do what u want, but i'd go with the 18's instead of the 17's. Oh, and the first mod that u do, has to be the vanillia air freshner, i hear that it gives u like 50 more hp.

well i think people dont like them because they dont look "sporty" i think they look tight. but enough about the rims what do you people think about my other idea's. any suggestions or imput.

i can deffiently understand the dislike of the "import scene" my civic is better than your "crappy domestic" cause its made in japan.

I always thought you hated your car and were saving up for a firechicken, guess i was wrong.

I am not a big fan of chrome rims.........but if there on a white or silver car I can deal with it......people see chrome on honda done wrong all the time! but i like how your going to do the chrome with the tinted windows (reflective) I think that will look pimp. What you have to understand is that most of the people on this site like the "racing" or "JDM" look and you are going for something way different. Over all i like the site up. Oh and please clear the lights before you put the rims on. BLING BLING lol

i am looking into the oem kit but i have a friend who's dad owns a body shop i was thinking i can get it installed and painted cheap but the oem kit is nice to and if i sell the car i wont have to worry about a thing.

im like 50/50

if you can get hook up on painting. you could just probably buy cheap abs plastic lip kit and get it painted. btw oem kit comes painted , perfect match with oem paint. oem kit is the best
