Default What NOT TO DO....Honda N00Bs Bible...

Ok....people do what they want to there car...i understand that... i love that...to each his own...But what about those people who brand there car with something that has NO RELEVANCE to there car. Or is simply just, not right. People are entitled to there own opinions yes, but i can honestly say that i think that those who visit this site can consider themselves "Honda Enthusiasts". With that being said, i believe we all have the same type of taste, style, methods.

I am making this post because im sick of telling telling people i drive a Civic, and they roll there eyes or give me this look like, oh god another one of these guys. Thinking im someone who does all this stup!d **** that these dumb people do, making us look horrible.

What i want is for everyone who views this post to take a picture they have or to find something that "taints" our image. It can be anything from body kits, decals, lights, colors...anything...Im hoping someone who is getting INTO the Honda scene will view this and see what one should NOT do....


here is mine....this guy drives around my local area....




Drift it? In a FWD car?

Did YOU hear ME? THATS NOT DRIFTING!



Please dont take this as a "BASH" or "FLAMMING" thread...simply post your thoughts on things that youve seen that you dont like or think further press the pedal in the wrong direction....

it doesnt really matter dude because most people can tell the difference between a honda enthusiast and a ricer as you talk to them unless the people who roll their eyes on you are ignorant.ive met a guy who think that all imports with aftermarket parts are ricer no matter what!

Met a guy who was looking at a eg hatch with a b18c1 and he said:

"My sister has one of these honda engines in her eclipse."

"What? what do you mean?"

"Yeah, it had DOHC on it, so its a honda engine, right?"

There's a potential dumbass right there.

I once saw this ricer and I wanted to kick his ***, so I followed him to his house. When I got there I found out it wasnt a house at all but honda-tech.com

I think putting a sticker on your windshield that says "Honda" is completely stupid and over redundant.

Also i have seen people strip off their emblems and glue other car emblems on instead. beamer emblems , ive seen a caddy emblem once LOL - NO STOP IT!

Personally, I like it! I really like the ghost flames which leads up to what looks like a cows head on the hood the the painted sunroof visor and all the perfectly fitting body panels. Almost as nice as the pink crx in the background...

In all seriousness, all that icy rain looks like the opposite of fun
