Exclamation Pls have a look!
Hi, just wanna show u boys and girls my car. BTW, I'm one of the OZ based member so don't be surprised that it's right-hand drive. Some of the exterior mods I have done :

* fully debadged
* color coded chrome trimmings and side moldings
* cleared headlight
* crystal sidemarkers
* altezza grill
* OEM foglight
* sebring muffler

The car is lowered with a full coilover u guys may not have heard of. It's from an Australian company but all parts are manufactured in Germany. The coilover is at its lowest setting.

I have done more things to the car but have not the time to take pics. I'll update in near future.

nice car but you do need some better wheels..those look like thicker GSR blades. I have SI wheels on my 02 sedan and it looks pretty good.

PicCoLoboi02 : those are stock Honda rims from the dealer from when I bought the car. They are 14"

Importz2k1 : Yes, new rims are next in my list. I'm going 19"

I have never understood the whole deal with debadging, unless you didnt want ppl to know what model it is (EX/LX/HX/DX). But why would you take off the "H". I like badges, it adds a little spice. I think it makes the car look too plain when you take them all off. I am not flaming, I just dont get it.

true, i like the "H," but maybe they take off the trim so they don't have to be reminded they don't have an EX .....hehe, jk. sometimes it looks alright to debadge, though

CivicLX620 & hassoomi : In my opinion, debadging makes the car looks clean & simple. Stock car may not look good without the badges but when u start lowering and changing the rims, it's quite essential to the whole look of the car. The concept of debadging is the same as color coding chrome parts of the car and stripping off the side molding.

Gotti : thx man,rims coming soon
