ummmm... i like the flat black because it gives a racer look. The stock colors alrite but it looks like every other black civic. I'd personally would stick with the flat black and get a body kit all around. Thats all its missing.

OEM color. Clear Coat. Shiny. The only cars that can pull off a primer look is an old ford coupe or lead sled. Not a 7th gen, in my opinion

i think the drift bumper looks better than type b lip. also liking the 04 rear bumper. maybe if you had some oem side skirts or rs type skirts and painted the car it would look much better than before

yea unfortunatly, my wheels were attempted to be stolen, lugs were loose when i started driving and didnt realize they were loose and front left wheel fell off the car...riped off front bumper, tore off fender, and side skirt, as well as scraped up the door.... didnt have the cash at the time to get it repainted so for now flat black...should have it painted soon...

As for the color, it will be pearl white, black pillers black roof, cf hood, cf trunk...
