ok guys... i have an opinion question.... as of now... i will list the mods/work on my car.... and i would like ur total opinion... flame or not... and maybe a few compliments if it comes to it... and will soon be including pics....

I have a 2k1 civic ex coupe.... black

transmission: polished flywheel
replaced all bearings inside transmission
Excedy stage one comp/street clutch

interior: pioneer head unit
rockford fosgate component speakers @ 200 watts
jensen 6x9 @140 watts

i've dropped the entire suspesion out of the car, ripped out the entire interior.. dropped the subframe, dropped the engine and transmission, and done massive bodywork... i hit a wall on the highway after pinballing at 65 mph to my drivers side... and the dude ran... so... no insurance.. i got blamed for the accident

i have the issue of where to go now... i'd like to save for a turbo and will be piecing it together.... and in any oder here is what im going to look for next...

rsx heated interior

save your money, stop modding.

your car is just were it need to be! (in one peace)

leave her alone. Good luck to you!

As far as exterior appearance goes, looks like its begging for a drop and some rims, but its pretty expensive (which is why I havent done it yet). Your front end looks pretty stock- headlights and grill, maybe change that up if your looking to spend some money. Couldnt see the rear, so maybe you got some ricer tails hiding back there, dont think ya do though. Is that blue tint? After that, looks pretty much done from the outside, and all interior mods are preference... My attention is at the engine. Theres a number of things you can do, dont limit yourself to turbo. But to be honest, given your past driving and accident record- maybe you just wanna spend some money on driving classes. I'm not flaming, just looking out for your safty. Because honestly, once you turbo your car, its like giving it testosterone, its not ment for everyone.

LOL! Buy Rennen's turbo mani and start piecing together the parts to slap a snail on the nose of that bitch!

You've got a nice looking ride, I would hit it with new shoes, suspension, strut bars, short shifter and aluminum bushings (my favorite mod currently), and then either your standard bolt-ons or a turbo. Other than that, keep it understated is my opinion. I have a CF hood and will be repainting it soon to keep the weight savings, but lose the CF look. I'm 31 for God's sake, I don't need a CF hood.

That looks really good man. One of the first black civics I like. How much did the whole thing cost by any chance? The lip kit, paint job and labour all together?

to respond to everyone... lol... i jus posted this link for another kid... so h could see the kit... but i guess its been revived and i dunt mind...lol...

ya.. the tints been like that for a while and i had to rip the tints outta the front due to a police ordeal....lol...

i bought the lip kit off of here... it was painted... and i installed it myself...i bought it for a little bit over 400 if i remember correctly... i quoted it for paint... and they said id only get charged about 300... but i jus did it myslef anyways... im in college u know...lol...

im workin on the suspension now... for some reason... the car sits a little low on the right side... most likely from my accident...but im consdiering installing a new suspension i got sittin in my room for the last 6 months and haven't gotten around to doing.... just relle busy with school... id also like to black out the headlight... jsu need a new set of tails to cause i shattered on a little while back
