Default Pics of my Civic

I finally took some pics of my 96 Civic.
It is early, but here is what I have done so far:

*2001 LX hubcaps
*Gunmetal Headlamps
*"HID" Headlights
*DIY Type R Grill
*Painted body color OEM sideskirts

Coming Soon

*New 16" Rims

Constructive Criticism and Opinions Welcome

I'll post more pics when I get my new rims and rubber!
This is a daily commuter, so would 17's be too much? The dealer I went to said he could give me a better deal on 17's vs 16's b/c the tires for 17's are cheaper.

I got a really good deal on Ebay. All four almost brand new and not one scratch on them for $26 + $10 shipping. Anyone have any suggestions about the rim size?

I could be wrong, but he said "HID" Headlights. I'm guessing by the use of the quotation marks that the "HID" setup is Cool Blue's or something or that nature. Plus the fact that he hasn't spent a ton of money on the car yet, I doubt he spent the cash for a true HID conversion.

Forgive me if I am wrong. I am not trying to flame him in any way. The car is looking pretty sharp so far.

Thanks for your positive opinions! Yes they are just some blue bulbs that I got from my cousin who is a wholesaler. I don't know the brand, all I know is that they had all sorts of Japanese characters on it. They are very white though. I know I can get the entire HID setup from him, but I don't want to spend the money on that just yet. Keep the comments coming!
