Rep Power: 0 I think it could be better in real then on this picture...but...hey do you think it worth it? I personnaly think it would be better to spend this money on a body kit or on some wheels and suspension....but that's just me...!

Rep Power: 0 im sure it will look alot better than the picture. i plan on doing this when i put my car in the shop for the body kit install.. in about 2 months my car is going in the shop to have the following things installed: Full Tsunami Bodykit w/Rear Roof Lip, M3 Mirrors, Z3 Fenders, Z3 Sidemarkers, Carbon Fiber Hood, and Is300 Lights. I have been saving money for quite some time, by march i should have saved the money to do all of the stuff listed above

Rep Power: 0 mmmmm .... still not sure about this mod....That's your choice and dont want to tell you what to do! But for me wheels would be better then wasting money on IS300 backup lights....

Rep Power: 420 The first one is hella ugly. The second one is allright I guess... I wouldn't bother though. Focus on something that will actually get you some praise from the elite instead of just stares from the masses.

Rep Power: 0 hmm wow I must be the wierd one then.
I actually like the second one, but if we were to get the same IS300 circle lights, would the size be right? I mean there must be some dimentional differenences between the civic and the is300 [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]
I should look into it more

Me too, the IS300 trunk lights were like so 3 years ago Nopi Nationals. Okay I'll quit talking like some vally girl bish. IMO you could spend that money into something that will look a lot better. Get some wheels. Wheels get noticed on your car before anything else.

Rep Power: 0 well, if you're going with the circles, I think it would look better with these tail lights.

Rep Power: 0 i was thinkin as a cheaper route, just get the trunk lights, then get some black housing altezzas.. not sure yet.. this was just an idea, not 100% sure if i am going to do it or not its alot of money to spend.

Rep Power: 0 IMO, Do it after you do some engine work and rims and stuff. Nothing worse then a hooked up honda rollin on the OEM plastic hub caps. And as far as I go, I know I have to paint the kit. After winter! Nothin worse then a unpainted kit too. i have a long and elaborate reason why.
Any way, I have yet to see a conversion here in MD. As far as I know I have one of the most hooked up civics in MD. I said ONE OF, there are a couple that are pretty nice. I think i may go with my original design, No. 2. As far as it trying to be something it isn't. Look at all the civics I see with the sidemarker lights. Never try to be, just be!
