wouldnt hurt to change up the car a little bit from stock, dont be afraid of some change. lets just label all mods "rice" and then everyone that has anything other than stock will be rice, and therefore < you.

Rep Power: 0 cf doesnt match a black theme for everyone. it looks clean. i think it will look sick. if it goes it the body lines it looks good. just like BIG's roof. amazing.

Rep Power: 0 wow 4 lbs eh.
do you really think that makes that much of a difference? thats like putting a 2L bottle of pepsi in the car and then saying it is slowing you down.
and also.. its a civic. unless you have a turbo or a K-20 all your mods are for show.. otherwise you are better off with an rsx anyway.

Rep Power: 288 yea either way, take your shoes off before you drive and you'll have the same difference, but wait! if you have the hood and take your shoes off then your car will have twice the affect!
