Very simple, yet very clean.

An SiR front lip mated with the SiR headlights would set the car off very nicely IMO.

Yeah! Can pretty much do that and your exterior is set. But clean car, love the color and the polished wheels.

Funny. You have two choices. LOL.

Anyway, looks like someone did a rear disc swap, and a Y8 intake manifold.

Yeah. But I believe it sounds really good mated w/the cat-back exhaust. IMO

I really don't know. I'll have to look up some info on this year hatch. I don't really know much bout the stock mods for the eks. I have a CRX too and really only know EF stuff.

Thanks to everyone's props.

I may be lookin for a Y8 head to swap on later. Not sure. Depends on my money position. Which isn't the best right now.

Looks niceee!

Needs a y8 head tho! and possibly the y8 tranny to, I find that makes the biggest difference.

I would just put a 96-98 SiR lip and be done with the exterior.
