I do like the EL front and rear ends.

Holy massive looking wheels aswell! The 17's look loads better than 18's.

Its an acura EL, its exactly the same as the civic sedan, just a little more luxury inside, the rear tails are different(theyre pretty sweet, especially 04-05 models) and the front is more pointy. oh yea, only comes with the d17a2 motor.
