Now with my new Spoon Sports sw388s it looks like this. P.S. Eyelids are coming just need to get some stuff to take off the stickness left on the lights.

Sorry man, but I liked it better the way you had it!
No offense though, I know you guy's like the JDM look.
But if I was into JDM, I would say great job.

civicvtec1ps 08-29-2003 11:56 PM

old rims looked better on your ride.
those spoon rims would look nice on my SILVER ep3 hehe

civicdude 08-30-2003 12:43 AM

Those Spoon rims look horrible...You should of stuck with the other rims you had...Car looked badass before

Alex1 08-30-2003 01:23 AM

I love your effort for going JDM equipped and all, but the car just does not look right to me. I love the rims though.

sKwiD 08-30-2003 02:39 AM

Yeah, I agree. Thats just OUR opinion. As long as you're happy with it, then its all good. Well, at least your car should be faster now. Before it just looked better.

Jodster 08-30-2003 07:37 AM

It just doesn't look right with the spoon wheels. But I give you props for getting real spoon wheels!!

StreetLevelPerformance 08-30-2003 09:48 AM

dude just drop it on some JIC's and that shit will look TIGHT

dragoon 08-30-2003 10:42 AM

i am really not feeling those eyebrows. i hope your new ones dont look horrible. closeups on the sw388's.

gotti 08-30-2003 11:11 AM

Bah, car looked better before. Sorry, but I despise the jdm look.

ViNRoCk8 08-30-2003 11:36 AM

It doesn't look bad as everyone is saying in my opinion. I think if you a had a little lip kit and a spoiler maybe it would look a little better. If you don't want to get a kit just drop it more.

How much did the sw388's run you, and what kind of tires do you got?

O yeah and if you blacked out the headlights or got the gunmetal headlights it would look better IMO.

XxJDMCivicxX 08-30-2003 12:32 PM

As I said eyebrows are coming off. I have Yokohama AVS ES 100 in 205-50-15. Drop I already have neuspeed race (2" front, 2"25 back) and I still have gaps, I'm still deciding whether to keep the vic or not cuz I want a gsr one of the reason why I bought the wheels. I'll take close of pics of the brand name made by spoon but made with desmond tank metal. I got them from a friend who has a shop for 1700 CAD with new tires.

turbsscivik 08-30-2003 12:53 PM

wow u didnt just ruin the look of your car..

DizWikedCivic 08-30-2003 01:03 PM

get rid of the eye lid, then your car will look fine

XxJDMCivicxX 08-30-2003 01:38 PM

01civicboi 08-30-2003 03:24 PM

the older rims looked better.

blue03civic 08-31-2003 01:33 PM

looka a lil better without those eylids you should get gunmetal or black housing headlights that would look nice

HEBEGEBZ 09-01-2003 11:17 AM

I am thinking about getting those Konig you had before. Where did you get them and for how much. I also think it looked better before. I say race in the Spoon's and cruise in the Konig's

XxJDMCivicxX 09-01-2003 11:42 AM

I got the konigs off a member on the site with tires for 900CAD but then I cracked them on a big ass pothole well one of them. Definitely go with 215-45-17 if your goign for 17s unless your roads are pretty good go with 205-40.

AGREED! your car looks sad everytime that i see it! :_ontome:

sadboy916 09-01-2003 01:32 PM

kenshin shut the hell up you mexican rice boy.

spoon 09-01-2003 01:42 PM

I like it ... It needs someting else tho .. maybe a lip kit .. oem maybe.

RSDCivic 09-01-2003 01:52 PM

I think its lookin sweet I'm likin the black on blue, and you cant really go wrong with spoon wheels, looks 10x better w/o the eyelids IMO

VietGuy949 09-01-2003 01:57 PM

is your car kinda dirty in the pix? give your car a good wash and wax and then take some nice pics because i tihnk your car looks dope its just the pics that dont show it very well

XxJDMCivicxX 09-01-2003 05:47 PM

Thanks for all the comments guys good and bad, I like the mostly show look 17" but they were getting killed by the roads over here. I might be getting gs-r if I don't i'll add a oem kit or maybe 2003 aero kit. The car has been dirty for the last 2 weeks my whole road is gravel so i'll clean it up when its done then i'll post some new pics.

Smurf-VTi 09-01-2003 06:27 PM

Screw the Konig 17s. Your Spoon SW88s are so much better, I'm sure you appreciate the lightness of the rim as opposed to oversized 17 Konigs. It was a good thing u took off the eyelids, it looks alot better. Consider tinting your headlights while leaving in the Amber peices, get a OEM frontlip (paint it black) and you'll have one nice looking car. Too bad it can't ever really be JDM, since you have a coupe. BUT NICE CAR THOUGH!

DaZeD 09-03-2003 12:35 AM

liked it better before, sorry...

NoBottleJustThrottle 09-03-2003 01:57 AM

yea you need to accent your black theme a little more. Im sure if you got an altezza grill painted to match your car, leaving the mesh black like you are supposed to do, and if you got black housing headlights, tinted the windows you would have a really hot lookin car. But right now there are too many sporatic colors...but like i said there is a really hot lookin car in the makes there, it just needs to come out.
For instance, my car use to have chrome projector headlights, with tinted tails and what-not. After the tails were done, i just had to get the TYC black housing projectors, and an altezza grill to boot...the car looks really good now. Its all about whats pleasing to the eye...that means not too many colors in a space of that size.
Sorry i like to type...i will stop now.

SpdRcrChk 09-03-2003 09:00 AM

LoL @ your HUGE ASS Spoon Sports decal.

Lose the eyelids. They're tacky and they're not JDM, so it doesnt go with ya.

Try n get some TEIN coil overs to help with that gap.

Anyway...spoon rims are sweet. But I have to agree they they look a tad small on our cars.

Now all you need to really be JDM is....a JDM motor, a JDM knob, JDM headlights, JDM moldings, JDM performance parts, and a JDM Rear clip to convert ur car into a 4 door or hatch.

BlueBoyCivic 09-03-2003 09:05 AM

Looks clean for the JDM look man. Keep it up. And yeah, maybe clean the ride up a lil and then take pics to give the ride a lil more justice.
