Ok, New member here...My ride is a 2003 civic LX... and I want to do some mods and also exterior body work. I was going to order the R34 style Body kit. In addition to this, I want to add a AEM V2 intake and cat-back exhaust. I dont want the real "Ricey" sound but a deep sound like HKS provides. I was also thinking about the X2 Fenders and Blue Halo Projection Headlights. Is this a good start? and also what other mods can you guys suggest? Thanks all

So many people are gonna name so many things...ultimately you have to do what you want to do...but rims, a drop, tint, and emblem shavings are pretty good mods to start w/

I also meant to tell you to look at member rides and DIY's for ideas and make sure that whatever modification you buy that it's of good quality and not just a cheap price

dropping, rims, tint would always be the top choices for me on what to do first. i never thought about how different my car would look dropped, now that i have.. i wish i would've a year before i did!!!

are you rolling in cash man. thats a lot of mods to do right away.
stay away from flashy stuff make a sleeper or something like that. so when your drvin down the i95 and you see a 360 modena you cash burn his *** because you put all the money into the engine and not on toys.
but its your car and your choice. you do need some flash like rims and a stereo put put your cash where your engine is.
good luck

Thanks Guys, this helps, lesson is... Well I dont have a V-Tec so their isnt much that engine mods will help me with unless i get an engine swap, but i guess the best bet is to make it look as flashy as i can to "intimidate" the "sport shifters" out thier. lol

Save your money and buy an SF turbo kit. Run low 14's, high 13's.

if you can wait to save up and go for SF turbo.. or tint ur car.... drop rims and kit... and V2.. that's what I did atleast LOL... I'm just waiting for my WW G5 kit.. and paint it.. then I will get a header and exhaust... it won't make a big difference regarding speed.. but it will be for sure faster than stock LX...

i have a non vtech engine also. nothing to be ashamed about. if you slap on a turbo v tech doesnt matter anymore

You can also get the engine built up without turbo. Just don't waste money on intakes and exhaust that's only gonna give you a few hp.

Damn your getting straight to the point. Do 1 thing at a time, cause as you go along, you'll find, that you want different things at that time. You'll notice certain things look betta with your past mods. IMO
