Should've done escrow. I am pretty sure he is legit but you never know. Better to be save than sorry. Post some pictures when you get them.

To each his own. I'm more interested in mods that improve the performance of the car. Body kits add weight and increase drag.

The springs will hurt ride quality a bit, mine is probably going to be worse off than yours CivicSilver since I am also starting off with stiffer shocks and a big offender, the thinner sidewalls on my 19's. I am currently debating getting Tein coilovers to get a ride I like better, but right now the car handles much much much better than stock. see if you can go to a local TL meet and check out the ride yourself. Thats what I did.

Vtec I'll work on the paint code for you, its the factory paint job available on all 2002+ Type S CL's and TL's, and its called Aegean Blue Pearl.

If you are going to get NEX coilovers for $800, you might want to spend another $150 and get the Tein coilovers. Teins are, I believe, 22 way adjustable for the shock itself and I heard the ride is pretty soft too.
