The sad part is that they actually DO make rims. It's even worse the people actually buy them.

Ok.. no one has mentioned this yet.. duno why...

Do you want more performance or show/looks?
if so, rims kit, no drop as you will spend that money on paint for the kit...

For suspension: coilovers with tokico shock for for ride qaulity...

Performance: Find a Intake manifold or a throttle body (need an intake manifold for best results)... get a port & polish and a decking, or just higher-compression pistons, and use the leftover money from installation and purchasing for your rental car..

visit http://www.hondarace.com call them or e-mail, ask for john and he says to tell him that craig sent you... he will talk to you about the pistons, etc.. check out the stages they have...

an unorthodox flywheel (350 product only), or maybe an act flywheel (220)... an act clutch kit (around 350 i believe), what about a revo short-shifter (like 100-120)

cant see whether you have strut tower bar(up to like 180), rear tie bar(up to around 160), sway bars($?)...

crower rods? .5mm oversized valves, maybe a bore and then oversized valves... (talk to john at kms, tell him craig sent you)

If you need any help for parts e-mail me.... i have a guy with one more dc ceramic header new for 01-03 civics ex..... other wise 18s or a bad a$$ system
I too went from an AEM CAI to the K & N FIPK II
