ROTF LMFAO... literaly...



i would stick with 15's.. if you get 15's and a slightlyshorter tire you will realize greater low end exceleration.. BUT.. im not too sure that performance is really what you are after.. if its a show thing.. i say go nuts and get like 20's.. not my cup of tea but whatever..

well even tho the black handles are a DX thing along wit the side things, i kinda like'em that way, that's why i got the wing black, and i wanna paint the inside of the headlights black, i had already cleared them out. and the grill is just that gutter mesh from home depot. i wanna get the red/white tails from a 99-00, and i do really wanna do the suspension and wheels. i also have a short throw shifter in it. the stickers are probably gonna come off. i've grown tired of car stickers. as for my goal for the car being speed or show, im gonna say a little of both. and the switches on the left side are for fogs, under seat neons, and one is for nozzle lights (they never get turned on anymore).

well, i know you guys dont like my stuff, but i just cant afford the stuff you guys seem to get, so i make the best of what i can get. and add my personal style to it, one thing i never see is originalnality (sp?) on cars anymore. i mean if i really had the $$ to get swaps and top of the line stuff, i wouldnt have gotten a DX.

If you want a little speed and show, I suggest getting a flush mount spoiler or a OEM spoiler. Something that would not cause as much drag and weigh as much. All the other lights and accessories will probably weigh the car down even more.

You can never be original with a Civic. Everything has been done. It is all about how tacky or weird you can get now.

As for not affording parts to make the car faster, the money you spent on the wing and lighting accesories can easily go to a good spring/shock combo or some basic engine bolt ons.

A DX is a perfect platform to work with.

well, i already have sum bolts-ons, and the wing was only $100, and the lights were free.

Theres a difference between having little money and just being tasteless. Lots of people on han dont have much money but they still choose tasteful mods.
