I dunno if there is one for the civics. I installed one on an Accord once and it looked like crap! It instantly made the car look like a VW.

cant find nothing is a double negative

that aside Thule has what you want http://www.thuleracks.com/thule/default.asp

EDIT: Thule T2

I did look on yakima's webpage but nothing was there except for the new accord. And the civic 4 door.

Not mine, but I found these pics on another forum. Still debating whether the I really need the q-stretch kit for just bikes and snowboards.

I think I'm going to cry...

Who the hell rides a bicycle these days? Unless it revs to 8k its no fun. haha but for real, i think someone should design a bike rack that can accent a car instead of looking like that. oh well.

I think the thule and yakima racks look great on our cars and others. To each his own. Also, you obviously have no down hill mountain bike trails around you or are just too lazy to ride. I get more of a rush on my bike then I do in my car.

I just put the Thule on my 07, I'll post some pic's when I can. I did notice only the last Honda had the right style rack on it. With the short roof line you need a "stretch kit" from Thule as well as the track.

Yakima states that it's not actually necessary, because the spread without the Q-Stretch kit on our generation civics is 18" which is more than enough for bikes and snow gear.
