change the headlights to oem and it will look much better. but overall a clean slate to start building on. i recently built a 2000 tafetta white civic coupe like that too. gl w/ the build.

and nice job polishing those mesh rims... looks good.

IMO the black housing's look way better then OEM. . . . and the rims are LS Webs

Car looks great, polished meshies look good. IMO black housing look better than OEM as well. I have them on my 97.

Car looks nice...nothing too standout, BUT it does have the shiniest set of LS Webs i've ever seen.

You need a little tint for starters. Secondly, get the rear deck cover piece that appears to be missing. And finally, i would get a set of standard black wipers...the color match doesn't really do anything for me

black housing are the ugliest headlights ever made for the 96-00 civic.. oem ctr headlights looks and are 133459048080x's better so i don't know wat you're talkin about and i doubt u know either. and those are also known as LS mesh rims so don't get all pissy if they are also called meshes by others. i'll giv this coupe a 4/10.


anybody that says black housing look better than oem shouldn't have an opinion..

black housing does NOT look better than oem unless you got rice flowing through your veins and ebay is your number one sponsor. i would suggest OEM ctr/siR headlights. i'd also rather have the stock oem headlights that came with the car too..

Throw those tuner lugs away RIGHT NOW!!! They don't belong on stock rims unless you want your rims to come lose and your Civic broadsiding a Minivan at an intersection and killing all passengers including kids + the family dog... thanks for listening.

this is a slight recap of why you don't want those extended lugs on OEM wheels.
The ball seat of the OEM wheel is not designed for the head of an aftermarket lug. There is a strong tendency for the lug not to stay seated and back off. It has been recorded for many cars that the lugs will come loose and the wheel will fall off at highway speeds.
