IDEA: get some clearcoat spray and put that on the blackened portion of the tails. that way, you should get a shine to match the rest of the car.

The overall look is good but that rear sagging down like that looks bad, and the camber is so far off your gonna need new tires every 5000 miles.

thanks for the comments guys...

as for the kit, im planning to get it but i have other priorities (school)
and for the camber kit, i know.. it didnt look as bad before, now i need it.
the tails arent finished yet, im trying to rewire the tails so that the brake light (now on the bottom) can flash when i use my signal. this way i can completely get the top half painted nhbp.

Looks good!
Did your mudflaps scratch the paint off? That seems to happen to every civic with mudflaps that I've come across...

clean- pic #6 is the money shot. I was thinking it was a black car till the light hit it right. Its blue isnt it? ahh.. dope shots- i needa do a deep detail and get up on a parking structure and capture the skyscrapers around.

Werds on the mudflaps, and ditto on the tails. Other then that, looking good.
keep moding- but not too much, ha.
