Wink Need your opinions! L@@K!

I have the 2002 Civic EX Sedan with the Tan color interior/exterior. Since there is some black on the inside, which I like, I was wondering what my ride would look like with adding more black? I was thinking on doing some black on the exterior as well. For instance, check out these tails:

Also, I would like to add some black alloy rims which I haven't really shopped around yet so I don't have any links. Anyway, after I "shave" my emblems, get the new tails, add some sweet black rims, maybe tint my windows and add that popular custom grill... how do you think this would look?

Just curious. I know, we are all different but I've always liked the black and tan. Hey, if anyone can link me to some nice black rims let me know.

Thanks for any opinions!

I have the Tan interior as well. I'm looking to have mine redone in all black. Maybe red threading like the EP3. Glad I'm not the only one thinking about replacing the tan interior. It's great n' all but gets dirty fast.

i seen better altezza's than those for the sedans. but personally, i dont like any altezza taillights that were made for the civic sedan 01-03. if i had a sedan and wanted something different for the rear, it'd definately be the 04+ sedan taillights. but since your leaning into that black/tan scheme, then nicer blacked altezza's would be alright.

as for rims, regular black rims dont satisfy me. theirs also other finishes like "glossy black/gunmetal/black chrome/Graphite/flat black/etc" for rims.

Paint the rest of your interior dash black, get some nice black seats as well if you want the the black interior.

I didn't want the whole interior black because I do like to two-tone black/tan. I just want to incorporate more black in various places. I thought about some black seat covers, black floor mats for starters. I also like the OEM console mods like the silver or carbon fiber. So right now it's up in the air on what to do.

Can someone provide a link to some darker, or black tails for my model that look good? They are hard to find. BTW, I love the black rims look and do like the gunpower finish! I've already thought about that. Am no, I am not rich so I'm also on a budget here.

Thanks again!

I dunno, I think the OEM look cheesy. I do like to clear ones, almost all chrome kind. But I want a tan/black theme so that's why I was looking at those CF ones. Still debating.

Grab the CF ones. It's your car remember, reguardless of what others think. You drive it daily, not them

I cannot find any pics of it though. If you do a search, all his old pics of his ride come up as redx's

Those are a tad improvement over my OEMs but not much difference. Too much red for me. I would either do clear or black. Again, not sure yet. I know, it's my car and I will do what I want in the end...I was just getting opinions to help spark my brain into a decision. Thanks though for the input.
