Default Bodykit Or Not!!!

Hi Everyone,

Hows it all going? Good i hope... Ive been workin on my Civic 96 Sedan and i've almost got the lot but besides a bodykit now! Im trying to make my car look n sound n go sleak and not over do it like some ppl over do their cars and actually ruin it... What sort of bodykit do you guys think would be nice and looks good??? I know its a silly question but i need some opinion and ideas please.

Thanks.

If you don't want to ruin it, don't put a body kit on it.

BTW: Wrong forum.

i'd just shoot for a nice stylish lip all the way around the car to give it a lower effect & still keep it clean if thats what your going for. It's your car, do what you like!

People around here aren't to crazy about body kits but it's all in what you want, i've got an aftermarket front bumper on my car & some mugen skirts.. i couldn't find a rear that i liked so i left it stock & i'm just gonna put a lip on the rear eventually

you know go with what you like, body kits are not all bad, its just the ones that make your car look liks a kids toy that suck, its a car not a space ship, id say go with something like a lip kit, or a kit thats subtle

not bad but i can't stand black wheels.. it just looks like they are always dity. Silver wheels & that car would look very nice.

or even if they were just glossy with a polished lip
