you can't stop there, you've barely scratched the surface. keep modding!

I would take those splash guards off. It's free, and looks much cleaner IMO.

if you're going for a "slightly" modded car then yeah, you're done. if not then you might want to delete this thread. and take the splash guards off while you're at it. it looks good none the less.

Shew i wish i could say that i was done, but i just can't stop. Not sure if you can ever be "DONE" but you can call it quits. I would suggest painting the drums black and the front calipers, that will clean them up a bit and not make them look as bad. And while your at it, remove the mud guards, that shouldn't be more than $5-$10 of work and will make a difference.

I think some 16's in that style would look better and I agree... no mudflaps. haha... The drop looks good none the less.

this is a daily driver, so the mud guards stay. also, I'm not entering any shows or anything so I'm not adding any weight with any lips or body kit. I am done though. I think that it'll be a fun and economical DD. performance for this car is useless, so I just focused on some fun suspension goodies. I'm 22, so I don't want to pull up to my friend's houses or work in a loud riced out civic. You gotta know when to call it quits and focus on your family. I find happiness at church and just mod the car for fun. a car will never make you happy.

my car makes me happy, and mine isn't riced out at all, btw i'm 21 and have never been called a ricer. You do it right and they won't call you that.

you have done an exceptionally nice job with your car drew. the fact that you have shown restraint in certain areas is what has made it so appealing. that is rarely found in very modded cars...i don't want to spend any money on my car that i regret, so i'm stopping here.

everything was new except the sway bars and the rear camber kit. the major $ was in the rims ($400), shocks ($300) and the paint and tint ($260)

i have to disagree. i like your car, but right now, the only thing that makes me happy in MY life, IS my car. and you might think its "sad" or "bad" or whatever, and im not assuming you do, but even though. for me, its my time away from this world.

everything of mine was new too except the springs, rims and strut bar...i was thinkin the rims were the things that set u back a lot...

my rims i got for $200 and shocks cost me $550...i didnt do any painting or tinting on parts cuz i got an LX but i didnt bother painting my mirrors

NightRider02

$1700?? when i first looked at the thread title i thought it read $17,000, haha. I spent about $1700 on my wheels alone. You got tons more you can do my man, you gotta keep it up! I am finally done after 3 years and $14,000.
