Default Classy and clean

My goal is to turn my 95 sedan into a sleek, classy cruiser. No gaudy body kits, park bench aluminum spoilers, or goofy vinyl graphics. Here's the plan(for the exterior):

-complete repaint of OEM Honda S2000 Berlina Black
-Seibon OE-style carbon hood (painted)
-Extreme Dimensions "Spoon style" front bumper(i'm perfectly fine having a
knock-off)
-Wings West side skirts and rear bumper lip
-Dash-Z "JDM style" black-out headlamps with Sylvania Silverstar highs/lows
-CarID red/clear LED taillamps
-Gram Lights 57Maximum 15x6.5 (bright silver)

Opinions, anyone?

Looks good, but here's the changes I'd make:

-Coupe front end conversion
-Spoon style lip
-oem EK skirts


You're already planning on getting a new hood, headlights, and a bumper, so I'd suggest swapping the whole front end over to coupe parts and getting a front lip instead of the bumper; the lip will give the exact same look as the bumper you're talking about, but ABS plastic and polyurethane are both a little more sturdy than a cheap fiberglass bumper. Also, I'd suggest lowering it at least 1.5"-2" to get rid of the fender gap. Personally, I like my EGs sitting on the ground, but some people don't seem to think you can DD a civic like my old one:

But remember what you do is your own choice; we're just faceless people on the internet, our opinions don't really matter. And welcome to the forums

Look up PLS in members list lol those are 2 CLEAN *** sedans....

https://www.hondacivicforum.com/foru...ad.php?t=79242

-Extreme Dimensions "Spoon style" front bumper(i'm perfectly fine having a
knock-off)
-Wings West side skirts and rear bumper lip
Id say EK sideskirts or OEM better than the wings west ones....... And def dont waste money on that spoon bumper it looks exactly the same as a coupe bumper with a spoon lip...... sexy though...

PLS brought it up and i think the coupe front looks out of place on a sedan lol

Please don't change you Front end to 2/3dr. i just hate it when people do that....

like i tell everybody, if you like the 2/3dr bumper, please just sell your sedan and buy a couple...

its a sedan, keep it that way, that's why you bought a sedan didn't you...

HOPE, these pix will change your MIND...lol
