Default Nothing Special, But She's My baby (ek content)

Alright this is my 00 EK DX special edition i have owned for the past 6 months and i think its time to share. This is my daily driver so its nothing crazy, its winter driven minus the coil overs plus some winter rubber. The modification list includes:

omni power full street coil overs
omni power front LCA's and Rear LCA's (camber kit soon)
b16b motor with ctr transmission with LSD(even has AC and power steering in still!)
ctr cluster
ctr shift ****
96-98 spec JDM fogs
96-98 spec tails (looking for 99-00 ones)
ITR strut bar
00 SIR CD player
full custom 2 1/2" exhaust with HKS cat and muffler
from the factory mid wing
and some other little things

Please let me know what you think, positive and negative comments encouraged! I'm no photographer but i hope you all can enjoy these.

Was the SiR midwing available in the US (or Canada) as an option? The reason why I ask is because I see the instructions to install it on http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com, and there's a 2000 white hb here in Hilo (small town) that has it and it doesn't look modified.

Nice whip bro.

If you eventually tossed a front lip and some "jdm" wheels on it, Honda-Tech would be jockin your nuts. It's clean and nice.

Slick car.

Thanks for all the input guys! The midwing came on the car from the factory and at this point i don't really mind it that much so i'm not willing to drop money into removing it, getting the holes filled along with my hatch being repainted. The bumper clips were removed from when i was replacing a wire loom for the fog light wiring and i had forgotten to clip them back in for the picture. The car can still go approximately 2.5" lower than the height that it is sitting at right now. I know all the HT guys love the look of JDM wheels and the usual popular body modifications but i honestly don't mind the current rims. I like the fact that the car looks factory besides the drop and exhaust because everyone just things i am another 18 year old kid driving a Honda with exhaust. The car is Canadian but i am unfamiliar with where the mid wing option was available Thanks to all for your opinions and thoughts!

I like the midwing personally. I think some aftermarket wheels would make a world of difference on the car. And a front lip is a must. Good looking car though I like the color.
