Default clubcivic.com doesnt like it, but maybe you guys will?

So, changed out the cf hood for a black one and got some authentic CTR headlights:

Its hard to tell from the pics, but based on the change in parts alone I'd say its an improvement

What's not to like?

Oh btw 90% of the people on clubcivic don't know what they're talking about anyway...I remember I had to post about something on that board and got flamed on for actually giving correct info, haha. It's the "an exhaust is good for 25 hp" crowd over there.

Eh, just went back to an OEM look. Plus, I plan on selling the car soon. The yellow reflection is merely the lighting / pic. Ill try and take some better daytime pics tomorrow. Thanks for the comments though everyone, I personally like it better too.

Why take out the H? just curious. Evo's, sti's, even just lancers and wrx's have the emblem in grille and everyone thinks its hot **** still. I think everyone is so used to taking out the H that when someone has it in, its looks "bad" cause they arent used to it.

Yeah, club Civic is right. It's needs a body kit and windshield sprayers that light up.

I tried to put mine back in one day... it just doesnt look like it belongs. It looks like Honda put it in there last minute or something. Doesn't look as bad in pics as it does in person though imo.

Well yeah, that's exactly why. There's nothing aesthetically wrong about it. I remember thinking that the badgeless grille looked empty when I was first getting into Hondas, but now I prefer it that way...although having it in there doesn't bother me one bit!
