Hell no, no spoilers, no lambo doors, and no dropping it so its 1" off the ground. I just think some altezza lights would make this a smooth looking ride.

EDIT: Why did 4 posts pop up from 2 hrs ago? They weren't there when I made my last post. My computer's a bit laggy, but not that far gone =/.

^Im pretty sure they're made of plastic, metallic paint and glass maybe. Not quite sure how a Altezza made from poop would go over.

What's wrong with modding the suspension? Anything that improves the quality of the ride, or the driving experience in general is worth it. Lowered cars not only look better (as in, not looking like a 4x4), but also handle better (given the correct spring rates etc etc etc).

This... although it is technically an opinion towards the end.

Apoplectic1, do whatever you want to the car, it's your choice. However, if you install altezzas and the like and come up here and ask us for opinions (that's the key phrase), make sure you come prepared with a flame retardant suit on. If you come in here and say "Look, this is what I installed.", and that's it, not one person has the right to bash you (personally) for it. However, you will probably see some mixed opinions about like "Ew", or "Do not like." etc etc, which is expected as this is a public forum.

Did you ever get the exhaust dealt with, or the interior (seat) fixed/replaced? If not, I would highly suggest working towards those first. Integra seats will bolt right in (a total of 4 bolts each) and will run you anywhere from $60 (cloth) to $200 (leather). I would go with some dark grey cloth seats IMO.

Nothing is wrong with modding the suspension, I like civics dropped a bit, but to the point where you're scared of speedbumps is ricey.

just do it man you have to go through that ricer stage once before you notice that its not the best way to mod the car, not clean at all. lol. I once was in my ricer stage in high school when i first bought my car. pics to prove it. and yes thats an ebay muffler. it was surprisingly quiet with the silencer on when its off its loud and obnoxious as fck
