No, my car will just get busted into if people can see my amps. I'd kinda look like a nerd. [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img]

I don't think its possable to improve the looks of a vehical from stock. If you wan't a better looking car then you need to get a different one. Two major area that can always be improved are sound and engine.

I like this car, I just want a nice paint job. If I wanted to join the "Civic nation" I would have done that in the first place. I have way too much time and custom $$ into this car to just get another one. And I can do it cheap. It is great for an SQ vehicle. Work on the Sound????
WTF???
I don't even want to hear the engine/exhaust. I will just put on a good quiet muffler.
I want to do the doors, I'll see how much the kits are.

body kit and some neons, change the grill in the front, lower it a bit, chrome the wheel well, change the exhaust to a loud illegal one and put some pimped out rims on it!

Ideas NOT to consider

Loud exhaust
Neons
Front spoiler
Stickers
Nitrous
Spinning rims
Rubber with lettering or white walls
Hydraulics (Unless you're going to install an automatic leveling system like some T-birds have)
Hood scoop/other mods
Snow plow/Air dam bumper mods.

The car has too much class for that stuff, I'm in agreement with most posts - Keep it clean/classy.

I'm going to have to agree with DWVW here...

Step back for a second and ask yourself the following question:
"Do Lamborghini style doors really belong on a car like this?"
Answer honestly...

Subtlety is the approach I think you should go for here.

My 2¢

The body shop guys know how to glass. But my buddy is their apprentice. He has done a couple small fiberglass repairs, but that is as far as his experience goes. He mostly does paint prep everyday.

I'm pretty sure a body kit is not availible for this car, there's not exactly many of them out there. I already have an Underbody kit on this car, it does look sweet! UB is really the only kind of neon I like because it's stealth. You can't tell it's there until it's on. I'm not a fan of license plates neons...

New paint and rims were most of my plans. I just wanted to shave a few things.
Did you guys notive the door handles are already shaved?
