Nice \'lude, but I think the body kit is a little over the top.  I was looking at it, and I think the main problem is the hood.  Put a more normal hood on it, and the whole thing will instantly become more sophisticated.  Just my opinion.  The wheels are great.

Rice ride GR81.  Can\'t say I\'m crazy about the double-nostril hood, but the interior is a nice color.

Thats why a turbo manifold is included in a turbo kit. A header cannot stand the added pressure of the exhaust gas\' and will crack.

From that 4g power cable connected to the batt, looks like you have a little audio system in there.  What components do you have or did he take that out before he sold it to you?

btw- nice car, but I agree with Cored and it would look classier if you got a regular hood (to me anyways).  Oh and what\'s with the VTEC??? bleh!!  ;)  At least you back up your exterior "statement" with performance mods under the hood.  If a car is made to look fast it should at least be fast.

About the hood, there\'s two schools of thought on the subject.

1)  People who want powerfull, modified cars, that look almost factory spec from the outside.  This is personally what I prefer.

2)  People who want others to know they have a modified, souped up car.

Now, I really like that ride, and unless visible mods get overly gaudy, I don\'t mind them at all.  I think the hood\'s fine, and so is the car.  Although, you might want to think about NOT putting on the undercarriage lights, I think that would push it a bit over the top...  

Honda rules.  Unless you know exactly what to look for, my civic looks like I bought it yesterday... ;)

Sometimes it is possible to go too far:
