This is my first ever car , 95 EX coupe manual Tranny, anything I can do to make her look a bit better ? I can't drop her due to the parking at home , maybe a different spoiler ? I like the 99-00 tall spoiler but I'm not sure if it fits , or any other options ?

Welcome. Maybe you could drop it a little 1-1.5". Wheels are always a nice upgrade.

I have to check out if I can drop it a bit . What wheels would look nice ? I might repaint these alloy again or if there are any rims I like I'd just change em

Re: First Honda, pretty happy so far .

What color is your car?

It is really up to what ever you think looks good. I think a nice drop and a nice set of wheels really sets a car off.

Other stuff you could do for looks is change the tail lights, headlights and grille.

Re: First Honda, pretty happy so far .

Fairly sure the whole car was painted. The mirrors and side bumper strips were originally black. Early 90's Civic did come in a factory teal colour but a little different than your car. Might be nice to see it from the front and back as well. I'd be careful about head/tail lights just for the 'rice' factor but agree with GolNat that a bit lower would be good + rims/tires.

not a big fan of those fogs either.
