Why do a lot of you guys on here not like bodykits?

rarrior23

Because they're cheap, ugly and pretty much useless. All they do is make your car look "fast", which will only make other cars with body kits rev at you. If you ask me body kits are just pointless.

It's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay gone. I've moved on! haha

It,s all cosmetic to make your car look better. Not all kits make the car look better but if installed correctly and isn't any thing to carzy I think it looks pretty good.

other manufacter cars look good with body kits, but honda cars, with the exception of a wide body on a s2k, shouldnt rock any bodykit

because they are crazy played out
they always break because mostly theyre fiberglass.
they never fit well

they completely chang ethe look of a car which some might like but i like the natural bodystyle of a car. some body kits are clean and not too crazy but the ones that are psycho are just toooo much
played out
fast in the furious
rice a roni

if u like it do it but eventually stock will grow on you

brooke ive seen much worse...at least that kit wasnt gawdy and space-shop looking(besides the side skirts)....and it was clean and well done unlike the usual ricer kits...still glad your rockin the b20 eg

Whell I'm 16 so I guess you could say im in my rice stage or what ever. I got the car when I was 14 so I already had my mind set on that, just turned 16 monday. My kit fits nice.

rarrior23

Got any pics of your kit? I'm curious to see it and how well it fits.

1996_civic_Coupe

No I dont right now but might be able to get some up. I really like my kit cause it was not one of those crapy ones that was already made for you. I was able to choose the front bumper, the rear bumper, and the side skirts that I wanted.

rarrior23

Pick and choose kit off eBay or what???

1996_civic_Coupe

yeah sumtin like that. I got the kit on it some other stuff redoing the interior right now(doing all black instead of that ugly gray), but anyways I was playing it being a daily driver but It,s going to be looking so nice.

eesuh

i wanna see pics

1996_civic_Coupe

Yeah I will see if I can get some picks up tomorrow, how should I go about putting pics up here?

eesuh

i use photobucket to upload them and then just post the HTML code

1996_civic_Coupe

OK cool! I guess I will try that.

eesuh

how much did you pay for the body kit?

I too had a body kit. I actually had mine when it was the "in thing" though. Stock with a lip for me now. Here's a picture of my old EF.

1996_civic_Coupe

I think I paid like $500 for front, rear, sides and since I was buying the full kit the guy went ahead and threw in some nice f1 fenders for free.

NACvicSi

Oh yeah, it also had a ton of orange metal flake in it. It sparkled like a speed boat in the sun.

1996_civic_Coupe

Did you have the full kit or just the front?

NACvicSi

R33 kit with Z3 fenders. The fenders and bumper were molded together.
