Apperance: Kit vs. Wing???

Ok, I have an 03 LX AT so I'm pretty much just going for looks at this point. Anyway, I just wanted to get you guy's opinions on whether I should go for a body kit (Aero kit from Hondawerx) or wing (Kaminari KTR II w/ CF blade). Couldn't think of anyone better to ask -- Thanks!!!

I'd say go with wheels first if you dont have them already if you do go with a kit first...
Aero kit sounds like a good idea... But personally the OEM Kit looks better to me than the aero kit... I really only like a couple of wings on the civic.. For instants the Wings west mini commando looks awesome and also the wings west three peice looks awesome as well.. Just depends on your taste I guess..

Thanks. I got wheels two weeks ago and got it dropped 1.5" last week so this is the last major exterior thing I'm doing. Where can I find the OEM kit?

i would go with the kit first.
IMO the wing without a kit wouldnt look right, because
its so much bigger than the oem spoiler.
so yeah, get the kit first and then a spoiler for the back
if you really want a spoiler get the kit and if you have a little extra
get an oem looking spoiler from spoilerdepot.com i think its something like 150 painted and shipped.

Kit then wing. But make sure your kit and wing go together, the edges of some kit look sort of rounded, which doesn't go with the kaminari wing. Just a thought.

I agree... do the kit first and then add the wing. The wing looks out of place without a kit... in most cases.

Kit without doubt. Hey that rhymes. In the case of a wing, Im not a fan of many, but the one Im extremely down with is the tsunami wing. Iono y, but it just looks clean with the Tsunami front and sides. Speaking of fugly, tsunami rear!!!
