Right now i'm looking to do:

- body colored door handle.
- si spoiler
- si sway bars front/rear
- install remote starter once it's warmer out.

-------------

as for modification,
I'm waiting for the powertrain warranty to end before doing anything.
and i am not going to buy anything till a turbo come in first. therefore you won't see me wasting any money on intake, exhaust, etc.... before the turbo goes in.

by that time, a turbokit for this civic should comes down to like $1k anyway.

yes it rolls forward, it just doesn't have the lid for you to rest your arm on


and about the radio, ithought it's a good idea not to include radio to cut cost. as soon as i got it, i already have a head unit in.
anyway, here's some pics of it when i bought it for you to see.

The radio thing is not so bad, but no A/C is really cutting it.
