Default Which Front end should I get?

Bomex


Xenon


Wings West RS


I already decided on the sideskirts and rear bumper, but can't choose a front end.

I don't like ANY of them, if i HAD to choose, i would just probably take the WW front lip in flat black. The WW skirts are horrible, just look at the fitment and they don't flow with the body of the civic AT ALL, garbage IMO. My suggestion is to just get a decent front lip, either JDM sedan lip for 92-95, the 99-00 si lip (that's what i have on my hatch), or the WW RS lip ~ all in flat black.

I'm not going for the "JDM look", IMO the "JDM look" is ugly.

I'd get the bomex front only if I had a shiny silver radiator to fill the middle vent. If not, the stock bumper on 5th gens are nice enough and the RS lip compliments it well.

The "JDM look" isn't the best way to make your car look clean, it's the best way to make it look stock. If you want the boring stock look then by all means, go JDM, but if not, don't bash others that prefer a more interesting look.

That first Civic looks pretty clean, and it doesn't look JDM either.

I've got an idea, I have been here much longer than you so I say you leave, JDM style has gotten so far out of hand that every Civic now looks exactly the same as the one next to it.

You can have your opinion new guy, but let everyone else have theres too, this isnt your website.
