What to gift to a eg owner?
Xmas shopping is bad enough, now I'm a girlfriend shopping for my boyfriend who loves his car.
It's a 1994 civic eg.
He's mentioned things like mudflaps, but there's so many different kinds.
Basically, I'm just looking for a few gift ideas for my boy's eg?
Thank you's in advance.

Ebay is probably your best bet for the mud flaps.
You will also need to make sure you get the right model. 4dr, 2 dr, hatchback. Information like that so you dont order the wrong thing.
Also Pics.

Come on guys. It's a week before Christmas, please try to keep this on topic for once. We'd really like it if people actually returned to this site.

Re: What to gift to a eg owner?
Serious answer to follow:
Unless you know a specific item he wants, and I mean specific like brand and model number don't buy him car parts. If it is not what he wants he will either have to pretend to like it because he doesn't want to hurt your feelings or return/exchange it which can be a giant pain in the ***.
If you are dead set on helping him out with his car get him something like the keychain above and a Visa gift card he can buy whatever he wants with.

Serious answer though. OP look into getting your bf a blue star card. It's a GREAT gift.

Re: What to gift to a eg owner?
Sometimes I wish there were an automotive off topic section on this site.
There's so many different items he may or may not like. It's just too easy to get it wrong. You're going to have to pay very close attention to specific parts he says he likes for his car if you really want to pull this off. Even the maker of the part matters. A part could look exactly the same to you but still be wrong.
I don't think this is going to happen in the short time you've given us.
Give up on car parts this year. Try going in another direction. If you can't, then you're going to have to make him a part of the purchase.
The only ways I can think of that you could figure out exactly what to get him regarding his car would be: (1) Get into the hobby yourself, at least a little bit. Just enough to be interested in what's going on and what he likes. You don't need to start doing things to your own car. (2) Pay attention to his internet history (this might not even work though and could possibly cause other problems). (3) If he has a good friend who is also into cars, try asking that friend if they know exactly what your boyfriend might like for his car.
