i might get some bronze/gold rims, if i do that im gonna get a different grill and buy another set of headlights black them out only leave the amber piece in. hell if i do that i might throw on a cf hood and some cf mirrors.
and yup its all show no go... but ive been eyeing some tsx engines for the past month or so... might be time for a summer project
... we'll see

on a great job thus far. Here are some things I might consider changing if it was mine:- Powder-coating rims to bronze - maybe get away with a black with polished lip but its overly black already and might need a change in color contrast.
- Doesn't look like the side-mirrors are painted, and would lean towards getting them painted.
- I'd lean towards a type-r front grill (painted lip) ... but if you wanted to stick with Kaminari then go for their front grill.
- If you are sick with looking wing-less you might want to throw a spoiler in. It would definitely change the look. Again, if you want to stick with Kaminari fine, but I'd actually lean with a Mini-Me Commando WingsWest spoiler.
- Perhaps shaving the rear H and keyhole.
- Updating the rear tails to 04/05 tails
Lots of ways to change your look .. the decisions basically rest with you. You stated going the CF way, but honestly I don't see the great expense in it with such a nicely taken care of nbp civic.
Have fun, and make sure to keep us updated
