Advise..

Im not one to usually ask for advise but Im just wondering if maybe someone can assist me...

What else should I do to my car? You can sese my mods under my profile. Also- I dont want anything crazy, not into that, I prefer the clean look if that helps.

Im thinking rear disc brakes, maybe a tsunami spoiler (for the trunk, but dunno if it would ruin the lines)... Dunno what else. I gotta get my front bumper repainted and **** since the last shop didnt do such a great job, but Im waiting on a check from Visa for that...

I dunno- Im almost out of idea's. I know I could swap or turbo- but not yet. I dont wanna turbo cause its auto- and I dont wanna swap yet cause its too much money at the moment for just a civic (haha, it will happen one day though).

Im getting a truck for daily driving in a couple weeks and wont be modding that so... I think I will lower the front just a hair more (though im already scrubbing...haha)

To be honest with you...I like your car just the way it is. Get the truck and then start saving for a swap

Haha, hell no it wont have 22's, Im getting the 4x4 with Off-road package....

Thanks Static-X, much appreciated comment.

Quijano187- I have a steering wheel, Its from an S2000...

Hustlelikeamofo- Thought about it but it would ruin the look of my car I think- I think c/f trunks just look kinda ugly IMO. And im tired of the whole c/f trunk/hood and paint the roof black thing (dont get me wrong Prototype, it looks phat on your car but too popular now)

you can always pimp out the interior...... there arnt many limitations to that. get TVs, DVD players, PS2 and so on. i think i'm pretty much done with the outside of my car for now so i'm hitting the interior up next...... thats gonna be a lot tougher and more fun then the exterior

Yeah interior is pretty phat already, I do need some TV's or something though, just afraid it will be a waste of money.
