Default Question

Is there any body kit that makes a 2000 civic look a lot like a M3... either actually being called an M3 body kit...or of another name? I can't find anything...but I'm wondering if there is one.

Also (if the above isn't an Option ^^^^)...any recommendations on what body kit to buy if I want to turn my 2000 Black Civic Si... into looking more like a European tuner car? Any good websites?

Thank you.


Colin

You won't likely get much of a favorable response out here for body kits as not many members like them.

www.andysautosport.com is a site sponsor and they carry body kits. GL.

I've seen many european styled civics. The rule with going that route is: Taste. No big wings, altezzas, or crazy body kits. The wheels and suspension are the biggest part. Look at some wheels that are on Audi's, VW's, BMW's, etc. Drop the car a few inches, as to eliminate the wheel gap, but don't slam it. Get some CTR headlights or do the CTR Headlight DIY, search the DIY section of the website. Keep your red/clear taillights, and go from there.

Hope that helped.

As for bodykits, just get type r front/rear lips.

Hey to the originator of the thread, would you trade me your stock alloy wheels for my stock alloys? Mine aren't Si's but are gunmetal and made by enkei. They look nice, tires have 70% tread left. Since you prolly are getting rims soon...

I actually have seen an M3 body kit, but it's for 92-95 Civics, I might actually have a pic of it at home.

But, what year M do you want to copy?
The mirrors and sideskirts are readily available (E36)

It was all the rage a few years ago to put M3 headlights on Civics. Looked kinda cool at the time. h:
