need some opinions

Should i just make my car look good or should i try to put some performance parts on it. I really enjoy racing and i know my civ can never be a speed demon but still, there is stuff i could do. but on the other hand, i really want my car to look sweet. I have an intake and exhaust and i've lowered it... and i've tinted the windows put on a spoiler and buaght some motegi mr12 14" rims wrapped in kumho tires. so what do you guys think... looks or performance? I would really appreciate everyones opinion. THanks

cryption should not be trusted
screw looks ... and it can be hella fast. Who needs to go in a line? Drag racing is for pussies anyway. Auto X that thing ... drag racing is for fast cars but auto x is for fast drivers

on the contrary I dont see what's so funny here. performance wise if you put 14's on one stock civic and 19's on another stock civic, 14's will 0wn. quicker acceleration, less whp loss. I hope they are 14x7.5's so you can take the corners too.
