Default Body Kits ??

Hello I wanted to get a body kit for my EF Sedan. But there are more body kits for the CRX. Some sites claim that they fit both the CRX and Sedan. Is this true ? If not can does anybody know where I can get a kit for my sedan. Thanks

Anybody kit you get for a Sedan ~stops and throws-up~ will be a knockoff of a knockoff, will fit poorly ~blood streams from ear~ and cause me to have a life ending stroke since I drive a very very clean Sedan.

GAH!! No body kits!!! Every person on the planet who knows stuff about automobiles will flame you.

I regret buying one for my car.

All that happens is they get cracked, broken, and ugly.

Stick with the OEM body. You'll have less-to-no problems with it. Slam out your car, and bolt on a lip kit at maximum. You'll have less problems. Guarantee'd.

I regret getting rid of the stock body on my CRX. I even regret the fiberglass fenders that fit like crap. Too late now though, already molded the rear bumper on. And i'm running out of budget.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter plus you can salvage lips off of other cars and modify them to fit your bumper.

how about you put more finances in the performance of your car then the cosmetic appeal of it...just a thought...but lowering it would help your stance. This guy at my school put exhaust, chassis light, and gay *** body kit on his automatic civic...whenever he went with us somewhere he would have his car all messed up...like a ***** drawn on the car...certain profanities...you dont want that...stick to OEM...the original is always the best..."cosmetically speaking of course"

Not another Body Kit thread ???
Wheres the Fawking tech in this thread ?
A body kit is only going to give your Sedan 3 things.
1. More weight.
2. More potential problems.
3. One more step toward gayness.

Rex, a decently made body kit of fiberglass will weigh less than the stock bumpers.

But only by a few lbs. It's not worth how easy it is to damage, and how impossible it is to drive in the cold without having your body kit explode by grazing a speedbump.

just do a body kit dude. its your car.


i have always wanted to mod a Wings West CRX kit to work on a Sedan.

you would have to buy a few sets of the door caps and side skirts..... but in my opinion, it would look pretty dope.

That body kit is the only one in the existence of Honda body kits to really, truly do the car justice & look good. Whenever I buy my next EF I will do my damndest to source one and I hate bodykits for the most part.

dude if you want a good bodykit, get the jdm front for the 4 door. the 1 piece headlights look really nice without the cheapy wavy lines of a replica fiberglass bumper
