Default help me get started on my car.....im very new at this

hey everyone

i just got a car about a month ago. its a silver 2002 civic sedan lx. well im not gonna lie...i dont know a whole lot about cars at all. i just know i wanna make my car 'bling-bling' if you know what i mean. i guess i just wanna know what i should do and where i should start. im open to any suggestions. some ideas i already had were, the obvious, rims (probably 16'...17' if i start makin some hella dough), and then i wanted to get some clear or chrome altezza tails and a new muffler to give it that sweet street racing sound. another little question i had was just about tires....40, 45, 50....i was just wondering what all that means. i know 40 is low-profile, i dont really follow the numbers around it. please share any ideas with me, even ideas of good places that i could get some of these items. im open to everything, even criticism because im sure some of you are tihnking 'what an idiot' right now. whatever it is you hafta say, please let me know. thanks a lot

17's on 40's or 18's on 35's .....1-2 inch drop springs or coilovers...no wings get some carbon clears or some new style ones that arent ******* played out ...just make sure youve never seen em rollin around on anyone elses car...look in mad catalogs...tint of course and maybe a cat back tanabe or apex exhaust ....you wont be fast so dont waste money on performance....maybe buy some leather si seats or s2000 seats ,or customs ...but get leather itll be clean in an LX

Forget the bling just buy performance and keep the car clean. A swap is a must.

If you are interested in ' "Bling Bling" if you know what I mean' styling, please visit the friendly folks at http://www.clubsi.com . If you want import performance, (1) stay here and read much more than you post, (2) subscribe to Sport Compact Car magazine, and (3) If you do stay here, please don't use the phrase bling bling again, unless sometime in the distant future you are describing the stunnaz you just turned into an increasingly distant speck in your rearview mirror. Have a nice day
