lower the car first before u put rims

Nameless 10-27-2006 06:46 PM

The car looks good for a start. I think after you lower it, put a full lip kit and paint the door handles/mirror/lip of your grill, it will look very nice :)

oh and I dont like that pin stripe...

Other than that... I think the engine bay looks pretty colorful.

goodtimes 10-27-2006 06:48 PM

ehhh..... its ok

01HonderCivic 10-27-2006 06:51 PM

get rid of all the company stickers on the car. looks tacky, get rid of the redish chrome badges, that looks tacky too. it was a good idead though. drop it. then get some new shoes. the engine bay dont look HORRIBLE, but it looks more orange than red, and you should have left the radiator cover black.

those very few changes will make your car look ALOT cleaner.

Suzy Q 10-27-2006 07:33 PM

Remove pin stripe, drop, wheels, oem tails, paint door handles & mirrors, and Take off those company stickers....just a few

boosted.es2 10-27-2006 07:34 PM

^ i agree. yeah, a little too much for my taste. but to his his own. :) keep modding your baby up and maybe she can hang at some shows or somethin :D

topnotch7gen 10-27-2006 07:43 PM

HEAD TURNER??? wow dude! I hope you "had" a fully built Supra with a T88 or something with a nice paint job before with that lic. plate because if I saw that car I would ROFL.

mattyg23 10-27-2006 08:02 PM

rice... take off the decals

susuking 10-27-2006 08:03 PM

well, engine bay look bz there,

Head_Turna 10-27-2006 08:39 PM

well im glad i mod my car for myself and knowone else. but thanks for lookin at it.

djrabbi 10-27-2006 09:07 PM

take off all that red and replace it with black..... shii looks like rice

04civicdx 10-27-2006 09:23 PM

not what i am in to but good luck

RedDragon333 10-27-2006 09:33 PM

Its a good start but i have a few suggestions. Loose the tail-lights, no more red in the engine bay, and drop it. And i would paint the radiator shield back to black.

flipmoderacer02 10-27-2006 09:35 PM

i agree with what everyone else have said

ex2k3 10-27-2006 09:40 PM

- tails, stickers, red emblems, red rad cover, pin stripe

+ 04 tails, NADABOH (needs a drop and blacked out headlights for the n00bz), 16" or 17" rims, black chrome or gunmetal emblems

not bad though

do think we are telling you what you should do, we are giving you our opinions on what we think would make the car look better. its up to you to listen to them or not.

OEM Tails > CF Donut tails
Company Stickers < Orginal Stickers
Drop before rims > Rims before drop

and the radiator cover being red is just taking away from the other accents.

s0ltker 10-28-2006 10:51 AM

wow....i think i'm blind for the engine bay...holy shit

simplicated1979 10-28-2006 06:45 PM

lxcivic2k1 10-28-2006 07:40 PM

I like the exhaust......

I have rims before drop :( but I bought it like that.

My advice would be to slow down. Don't do it just cause you can. You did a lot of work on the engine bay, but if you looked thru the forums (here,clubcivic,ect) you would see most (all)people co-ordinate the color in the bay to the color of the car.
But you have the right idea, you do it for you-no one else:tup:

definate head turna

tuningmycivic 10-28-2006 09:13 PM

^^lol...

can't say i agree with everything that was said....but here's my take:
1. get rid of the stickers, red and silver just don't mesh well IMO
2. drop and wheels, in that order
3. easy on the red engine bay, too much contrast and it quickly becomes rice
4. the emblems are just lame, sorry...
5. listen to us or don't, it's your car....but you did ask for good or bad...
6. pon said it best, slow down. take your time and do it right. if you don't i guarantee you'll be doing it again when you realize you don't like it, or it didn't turn out right.
7. have fun. it is your car after all. as long as you like it, who cares??!!

klectic 10-29-2006 12:49 AM

with a plate like that.. hope you get it up and going soon!
..but we all gotta start somewhere right? so keep on goin!

i'm pretty sure that you put 100 lbs. of stickers on your car for other people to see, otherwise, they would be stuck on the inside of your car:giggle:

o yea and lose the taillights, i have the hardest time figuring out why they look good to some people...
