And get rid of the wild kit. Makes the Civic look ricey.

Do a JDM-influenced project. Red wheels with polished chrome lip Stock body kit, CF hood (stock looking, no scoops and whatnot), and a clean looking fart can

Or the hood from the black civic, it looks great. Trust me.

thanks for the ideas, yeah, i wanna do something cool to my civic.. my stock front bumper is bashed a bit though, so it wouldn't look as good if i put it back on... the white rims would be cool.. or the red, with silver edge. if i put the stock skirts and bumpers back on.. .what could i use for exaust?

I would say maybe get a few hinges for the doors and hood. And also get some underglow for it. That would look great.
