Icon3 Just got mine...

Hey guys, just got my 2002 Civic coupe. It's plain stock right now so kind of boring, I just got some money to spend on it now and just things on some things to get for it, let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions on something, if you've got the same model and got some stuff for it pictures will be very appreciated!
First, I was going to get some 10,000K HID lights (I had these on my car before and loved them), and some fog lights (haven't decided whether to go blue, white, or yellow yet, let me know what you guys think!). I also want to get a black spoiler for it, trying to find it cheap but can't seem to get one under 100, if you guys got any suggestions I'd really appreciate it, and of course I wanted to get some pitch black tints for it! I was thinking of getting some LS Webs for it too, but I don't know if I should just keep them silver or paint them black (my Civic is black) or if there's any other inexpensive nice rims. Still considering getting it lowered too.
Hopefully I'll be getting this done in the next week so I will post pictures up here for sure!
Let me know what you think of my ideas so far and if you have any suggestions, thanks!

My only suggestion is read through the FAQs for answers to questions you may have. A lot of things have been covered before.

We also have a Picture Thread you can browse through for ideas.

Oh, and the Build Links have a lot of photos, too.


Lastly.. buy what you want. Don't rely on other people to tell you what will please you. If you know what you want, but need suggestions for what brands to look for or steer away from... that's a much better approach.

Enjoy
