i've always thought that kit on civics doesn't conform with the body lines on the car, and the overall styling...just IMO, thats all...but ont the other hand, its a different look to be going for and it certainly achieves "different."

Two tone colors work well on some cars. Yours isn't one of them. Sorry.

ya, Dont take internet stuff personal. Everyone will try to ruffle your feathers. The more you do to your car, the more people will hate or love it.

Well, I gave him my opinion on the car pictured, and he got mad because he said that's not how his car is going to look. I based my opinion solely off the picture.

I see the look you're going for. Like the show car look right? In that case it looks good. It's going to look really good when you get the paint on there. Post more pics once you get it painted. My advice: While you go the "show" road, please keep it all REAL clean. It seems like you're doing that, depending on how the kit fits, and how your body work is. Matching lights sounds cool, just make sure you silicone the lights, APC isn't the best quaility.

Dude, it's a ******* show car. Don't waste a B18C5 in it. Let someone get it who will use it what it was made for. Just buy a damn red valve cover.

Snatched to words right out of my mouth...

I'm not into show cars, however I do respect the amount of work you put into your car. As long as you like it, then go for it... I guess...
